In defense of the gun dealer, they can probably ship right from their shop via FedEx or UPS pickup. to ship via USPS they probably have to take the package down to the post office, and maybe argue with an unknowledgable postal clerk about "yes it is legal to ship this handgun". So USPS would be cheaper for you but probably cost them more-- after all, time is money. Is an extra $15 really something to quibble over, esp when the purchase of a beautiful airweight Chief is involved?
