Say hypothetically if a man didn’t specifically communicate to his wife that reloaded ammo boxed and ready to be shipped, had to go ups ground, but she unknowingly mailed it usps believing honestly that it was not liquid, hazardous, fragile or perishable, and the post office took the box of 50 loaded rounds to be shipped to Portland Oregon, what is the likely result?
Delivered?, returned undelivered? or should husband return to basement?

It is said, “ignorance is no excuse.”

Anything you say can & will be used against you. Anything you do can & will be used against you....they’ll say.

I dont know if they x ray boxes, or snoop with sniffer dogs. I would not say another word and see if it gets through. If it does .... if not be honest in how it happened and hope for a reasonable outcome

A wife hypothetically could contact a friend who is a postal carrier at regional usps hub with tracking number who might be able to commandeer package.
Will report back if she gets prison time.

I can tell you that I sent 3 dummy rounds with no powder or primer to a gunsmith in Louisiana. I sent them flat-rate with a note explaining that they were not functional ammunition in the hopes that if they screened it, they would let it go. I signed the screen saying that there was nothing hazardous.......

Never made it to the destination. Never heard anything from USPS, no threats of hanging or shooting me at dawn... nothing. So it was just 15.00 down the crapper. The next 3 I shipped UPS and they made it no problem. If there was a UPS store near me, it would have been a no brainer.

Is there something wrong with mailing ammo?

Most likely you'll be fine, the nights might get a little lonely now and then but it'll be OK.

Nothing personal, but are you ignorant, or stupid, or just being a smart ass ?

You could do some touch the floor with your fingertips drills until they arrive or there is a knock at the door. If you get limbered up for that then grabbing your ankles will be a piece of cake. Oh, and bite on a tennis ball while doing it also.

A couple of years back I had a visit from a postal inspector. Seems I'd ordered some bullets off the web, bullets as in projectiles, not loaded ammo and package broke open. Some snowflake saw them and reported it to the postal inspectors and now he's knocking on my door. I broke no laws as one can still send bullets through the mail, bu not loaded ammo. Guy was pretty cool about the whole thing and even gave me a bag with a broken box and all my bullets. He did leave with a stern warning about no loaded ammo through the mail. I hope the lady in question comes out of this with nothing more than a warning.
