The act of sending ammunition through a carrier service is a highly regulated process. This process necessitates adherence to specific federal, state, and carrier guidelines. Improper execution can result in significant penalties and legal ramifications. For example, failing to declare hazardous materials when transporting projectiles via common carrier constitutes a violation of established transportation laws.
Following established protocols ensures safety and regulatory compliance. Proper handling protects carrier personnel and the general public. Historically, evolving regulations reflect increasing awareness of the potential risks associated with the movement of explosive materials. These regulations are in place to mitigate those risks.
