Shipping Fireworks

I know companies ship fireworks, but what about friend to friend? My question isn't the legality. People ship pot, chems, foods and other things with smells but I wonder if people successfully send fireworks?
I mean if you took in a package you were sending from one state to another and you dropped it off at at the post office would there be any precautions you should take? If its not going through customs like when going over international borders will there. E any chance of it getting detected? (Given they are packaged nice and neat wrapped up as to not spill any contents)

I once vacuum packed some firecrackers and mailed them.
Probably one of the dumbest things I've ever done.

Explosives in the mail just sounds sketchy.

#2 so even the way its looked at with drugs, "order domestic as to avoid customs" doesn't matter in this situation? They'll find fireworks right away?

Crazy I didn't think it'd be this difficult given weapons are shipped in mail and almost every drug on the face of this earth is shipped =]
But meh what do I know. I'd love to hear success stories if they're out thete

If the giant red signs that say "DO NOT SHIP FLAMMABLES OR EXPLOSIVES" at the post office doesn't spell it out at this point, I don't know what will.
Good luck, OP... I guess...

I obviously understand its ILLEGAL. that's not my question. The law also prohibits use of psilocybe containing mushrooms and growing them. Obviously the point here isn't if they're legal, but rather is it easy to do. So the answer you're giving me is very vague and I can't tell if its your attempt at answering my question or just your stating your opinion on the law.
But from my guess since you havbt expresses your experience with doing what I'm asking about you don't know if its possible or not.
Illegal shit gets sent through the mail all day and everyday. Some easier than others. I just need to know If this is one of those things. If you don't have a solid answer fine.

If this was pre-9/11, I'd say just do it.
I wouldn't want Homeland Security or ATF knocking on my door since gun powder fell out of my mishandled package.

Thank you. I agree. but imagining all measures are taken to be sure nothing falls out... Is there dogs sniffing packages? Or x-rays going on? I feel like domestic packages move way to fast for each to be checked! Lol

dogs, yes. Machines, yes. x-rays, yes
Fireworks plus airplanes, no.

Wow I never knew dogs were in domestic shipping companies. That's a ttrip. I've sent and received tons of shit you aren't supposed to but the whole stapled word "explosives" is the only one that keeps me at bay.
Still welcoming any success stories

Bad idea, sure it can be done, however in doing so your committing a serious federal felony.
Drugs, yes shipped all the time, most make it, some get confiscated and depending on the district, a controlled delivery and a bust will ensue.
Sure guns and ammo are shipped by manufacturers and they do so legally following all guidelines so as to be in compliance with the feds.
Shipping fireworks as benign as it may seem to you will be taken very seriously by the agency that finds them. In fact, they will take it so seriously that unless your of the unibombers caliber of shipping it anonymously they will find you and you will go to federal prison for anywhere from 10-30 years.
Is it worth it? I am going to guess at a no.

Maybe you misunderstood me. Gun and ammo are sent person to person. Ie. Certain tor markets in the dark web.
Most active members on this forum are committing felonies bro my question isn't legality. I know what I am asking is illegal.
Read my posts fully please.
Either way

I think you will be fine. Pack it intelligently and most likely nothing will happen. So much contraband goes through the mail system they dont even scratch the surface of it.

So what your asking is for someone to tell on themselves for shipping fireworks? Or maybe for someone to outline a plan for you to ship them? I don't think that anyone here is going to want to help you do this, unless, of course, they are trolling.
You already have your response, the guy that did admit to shipping them knows it was not his intellectual zenith.
Good luck mang, looks like your really going to need it.
And just because I am on this board does not mean that I am committing any crimes, it just means I am cool.
