Can anybody tell me what I need to do to ship ammo in NYS? Is UPS or Fed Ex better? I’ve never shipped ammo and now with the current situation, what was a FTF deal is going to be a shipped deal. Thanks.

Pack up the ammo GOOD and mark the box ORM-D , Go to a UPS or FedX hub and fill out the correct paperwork, pay the shipping fee and you should be good to go. At least that’s how I did it the last time that I shipped ammo. It has been quite awhile though.

I cant remember if it was someone here (maybe Carlos?) who received a package of empty brass with one of the cases taped to the outside of the package. 
Dont be that guy.

Exactly. Empty brass, a little too much jingle jangle for their liking.I cant remember if it was someone here (maybe Carlos?) who received a package of empty brass with one of the cases taped to the outside of the package.

If you go to UPS.com and sign up for an account, and print the label at home, the rates plummet.
There is even a place there to print up a nice ORM-D label. But you can just write those letters on the box, too.
As far as extra paperwork, there isn't any.
Yes, you do have to go direct to a real UPS office, as the stores won't take it. Or schedule a pickup.
I've not done this for mebe three years, and regs do change, but I've not heard of them changing.

With the current situation, the correct method is to carefully package the ammo into a cardboard box and label the box, “Christmas decorations”, then tuck the box away into the back corner of the closet so as not to draw attention to it.
You may need it later on when society really collapses.
