Mailing handguns

I realize this has been discussed before. However I would like to know the legal way to ship handguns. I realize USPS is out for C&R holders. Our UPS says only by overnight priority mail. If other than overnight is used and handgun is lost or stolen enroute no insurance will be paid. Federal Express is the same.
All overnight is expensive ($80 +) However if lost or stolen you are SOL if other than overnight is used.
I for one cannot afford to gamble on it arriving safely if using some other type mail
Is there any other legal option which will cover you? Bill
