What about shipping gun parts? That is, can you disassemble your gun and ship it in separate packages (to assemble at the other end)? I suspect the answer is no....

A gun's frame which has the serial number on it is the same as, and no different as being the gun itself as far as the ATF are concerned. Reason is, is that an individual buying the firearm must do the paper work to buy it at the FFL dealer to whom you are shipping the firearm to for a buyer to pick up after doing all the necessary background checks and paper work required by the state to which you ship to.
Hope this helps with your question about shipping any gun in parts separately.
I do not believe UPS has a similar stipulation in their terms of use. You would be best check their terms of use.
Handguns, as defined by 18 U.S.C. § 921, will be accepted for transportation only via UPS Next Day Air Services, specifically, UPS Next Day Air® Early, UPS Next Day Air®, and UPS Next Day Air Saver®. (Note: UPS Express Critical™ Service is not available for firearms).
