Shipping firearms for Cerakote® or other work? Schiwerks is an FFL, so it’s pretty simple. Contact us for questions and pricing. When you’re ready to send it, just follow this guide or drop it off in person.
- *If you’re shipping a rifle or shotgun, UPS, FedEx or USPS may be used.
*If you’re shipping a pistol/handgun/revolver, UPS, Fedex or another common contract carrier must be used. (Unlicensed citizens cannot use USPS to mail pistols, revolvers or handguns.) - Make sure the firearm is completely unloaded and packaged in a box with no indication on the outside that it is a firearm, is packaged well and secure.
- DO NOT SEND PARTIALLY DISASSEMBLED FIREARMS! Leave the barrel, bolt, magazine etc, in, as we need everything to function check after reassembly. Stripped/completely disassembled parts are fine but they must be FULLY disassembled.
- Include a copy of your Driver’s License or state issued ID. Fill out the Cerakote order form and send it in the package. (This must be included or delays will occur)
- Make sure the return address matches your state issued ID. We need to ship it directly back to your residence. IMPORTANT: we will NOT ship to a different address.
- Let us know it’s on the way. When the work is complete we’ll send you an invoice to pay via email and your project will be sent directly back to you. That’s it!
