I shipped through UPS, and they wouldn't do ground shipping. I believe it had to be second day air, and it cost $50. How did you ship?
OK..... There's a difference between a RULE and a LAW.
The LAW does not require the shipper to send via air, that's a heavy-handed RULE by UPS.
The trick is that you tell the shippers that your shipping a "machine part" or similar, rather than a firearm. A firearm description is also a "steal me" alert too, IMHO!!!
I sent my $400 "machine part" to Taurus last week and just got a notice yesterday that they got "my product" and it would be 5 to 6 weeks to fix.
I was tipped-off on doing the above by a guy who does my plating for me a number of years ago.
