I use addresspal but I've heard they don't allow gun related items? I've never had anything stopped but I've never got anything that looked gun related to the uneducated eye.

First they came for the socialists...

It's been a while but as I said it's always been something innocuous.

Addresspal did me over twice on "gun" items.
Once on Tipton bore guide and once on a trigger spring ....... 🤬
