UPS Now Refuses to Ship Suppressors

By Chelsea Davis

Every day, United Parcel Service (UPS) delivers over 15 million packages around the world. Now, not one of those packages will contain suppressors. Recently, UPS made the decision to stop all shipping of suppressors, even between those who are licensed.

So far, there have been no statements from UPS as to why this is.

“NSSF is working with UPS executives to determine what prompted the enforcement of this unwarranted policy. We are unaware of any thefts or losses that would explain the shipping company’s sudden decision to enforce a prohibition against shipment,” the National Sports Shooting Foundation stated in a press release.
