"The DOJ argued that a 1927 law, which made it illegal to use the Postal Service to mail concealable firearms, such as pistols and revolvers, infringes on the Second Amendment.
Section 1715 makes it difficult to travel with arms for lawful purposes, including self-defense, target shooting, and hunting."
The statute also imposes significant barriers to shipping constitutionally protected firearms as articles of commerce, which interferes with citizens' incidental rights to acquire and maintain arms," the opinion continued.
Postal Service policy mandates that nonmailable firearms found in the mail stream "must be immediately reported to the United States Postal Inspection Service," and investigations are then referred to the relevant US attorney's office for prosecution.
The agency categorizes "pistols, revolvers, and other firearms capable of being concealed on a person," including short-barreled shotguns and rifles, as handguns. It also notes there are no restrictions on mailing rifles and shotguns between licensed dealers, manufacturers, and importers.
Major private carriers, including UPS and FedEx, also restrict the shipping of firearms to only licensed dealers, which the opinion argued effectively creates a "complete ban" for unlicensed people."

In 1963, the US Postal Service certainly obliged Lee Harvey Oswald: Mail Order Rifle
In 2025 Dummkopf Trumpf idiotically signed an Executive Order loosening federal firearm regulations after he himself was almost felled by assassin's bullet on 13 July 2024 in Butler, PA. The DOJ is suing Washington DC to allow residents to own assault rifles and ammunition vending machines are available in six states across the US, with plans for further expansion.
One in five Americans experience a mental health issue every year and the nefarious Trumpf junta abruptly slashed nearly two billion dollars in funding for programs that serve people with mental illness and substance abuse. Every eleven minutes someone in the US is killed with a firearm, either by assailant, by accident, or suicide.
The more Americans are shot, the more hospitalizations occur in our insidious for-profit healthcare system. Moreover, many Americans are opting out of health insurance in 2026 because of rising premiums and the lack of ACA (Obamacare) subsidies.
