Re: Question on Shipping a gun within the state of texas...

Everything you say is technically correct, but there's this problem:
http://www.fedex.com/us/services/terms/ ... erousgoods
Firearms
1. FedEx Express will transport and deliver firearms as defined by the United States Gun Control Act of 1968, between areas served in the U.S., but only between:
1. Licensed importers; licensed manufacturers; licensed dealers; licensed collectors; law enforcement agencies of the U.S. or any department or agency thereof; and law enforcement agencies of any state or any department, agency or political subdivisions thereof; or
2. Where not prohibited by local, state and federal law, from individuals to licensed importers, licensed manufacturers or licensed dealers (and return of same).

Thanks for the correction. I thought I had read that they would not ship to individuals. In any case, I have never had to do that.

You can send long guns by U.S. mail.

It is legal to ship a handgun by common carrier to an individual in the same state, but Fedex and UPS won't do it for you.

The best solution may be to send it FFL-to-FFL. It may actually be cheaper than shipping it on your own, because they can use U.S. mail for handguns.
