You know,one thing has always puzzeled me;

It states contract carriers, so that is assumed to be UPS or FedEX, but could be DHL, etc. Technically, the USPS is not a gov't entity, and why they are exempted, I have always found weird. Plus, the technicalities state that an FFL can ship via USPS, and in another place it states dealer.

I guess someone should write the BATF and ask that question / but I think most folks don't want it more clear but skirt the issue....
