RIFLE BOXES FOR SHIPPING

Hawkshaw

Have any of you out there found a source of boxes to ship rifles in? I assume that like me, you have an occasional gun without a box, that you need to ship. Doesn't have to be a gun box, just about that size. THX Keith

Go to Walmart or any big sporting goods store and buy an inexpensive black plastic rifle case with the foam liner. You aren't going to get any better trying to ship it in some kind of cardboard box. [:)]

I concur with the suggestion to use the rigid plastic gun cases.

I recommend that all rifles be shipped in the shortest box possible with the stock removed, if possible.

I get mine from my buddy's bow shop. A bit large so buffer with newspaper. He trashes maybe 50/ week.

The boxes that hold ten 4-foot fluorescent bulbs work well.

I go to Gander MT. . They always have extra gun boxes always free!

If you use regular cardboard boxes, use ALOT of bubble wrap. Pretend it will be thrown from an airplane. If you think you have wrapped it good enough, USE MORE!
I use 48X8X8 for long guns and 36X10X10 for take downs. Oh yeah, I use loads of bubble wrap. When I think I've used enough bubble wrap, Yep you guessed it. I USE MORE!
I use a lot of tape too.
