The one I found online says "firearms"
The word "Handgun" is nowhere on it

It was also dated 1994:

More detailed regulations, with no mention of Form 1508
http://pe.usps.com/text/pub52/pub52c4_009.htm




A FFL is not required to ship a long gun. No need for a 1508 since it is not necessary to provide proof of having a FFL. A FFL is required to mail a handgun. Only reason to provide a 1508 is to ship a handgun. The last link you provided does mention a 1508 being required to ship a handgun.


I never said it was required, but he did tell them he was also an FFL, which may have caused the confuaion

The top of Form 1508 says it may only be used by FFL's

I did miss the one referrence to the form among all the regulations on the second link


One shot, one kill........ It saves a lot of ammo!
