Shipped my TalonSS last week via FedEx. Had to go insured so inevitably they asked,"What's in the box?", I said,"It's an airgun", they said,"OK"....and off it went. I really think it depends on the clerk as much as anything. I have shipped them before at other places and had them ask if there is a "firing mechanism"...."airgun", "air", "no fire", "no firing mechanism"...easy peasy! Maybe it's just a matter of time before I get a clerk that wont ship for me, but anyone that knows me knows I have shipped A LOT of airguns and so far no problem. Of course my Talon and any other PCP airgun should be emptied of air before shipment, pressurized gas is hazardous, I suspect even lower pressure CO2 cylinders should get special treatment, probably best to check with the shipping company on that. I did get a little paranoid once and claim it was "air tools" and someone else once shipped me "wind chimes"...hehe!
