Not really but by the time you pay a FFL $30 to send it and another $30 or so to receive it plus the actual cost of shipping it and insurance you can be close. Some sellers want to make money on the shipping too.

Which shipping method? A FFL doing the shipping?
Need more details.

An individual can ship a long gun to a FFL using USPS. Do not put any markings on the package saying it is a gun. Have the FFL send you a copy of his FFL to include inside the package, and a copy of your drivers license. For the shipping to address, put the FFL's personal name on the label, not anything that would indicated the package contains a firearm. You will have to to tell the USPS clerk that it is a long gun, and tell them that the necessary paperwork in included in the package.
Talk to the buyer about using a FFL that will accept firearms from individuals.

I usually send USPS priority/insured and it runs about $45 depending on how much insurance. Now, if you are shipping to Alaska, figure double. At lease that is what it cost me.
Thanks again

Last rifle I sent USPS cost $50, 2/3 of the way across the country. It's getting expensive.
I was a dog on a short chain.
Now there's no chain.

I priced shipping a Mosin Nagant M91/30... $65 because of length and having to go express
Got two in the UPS and the cost were for shipping 18.00 and 25.00 one from VA other AZ to PA they were early summer. Cost of 25.00 for FFL added to each.
