Shipping a handgun C&R to C&R

[Kurtz]

I was doing some reading on this website and they mentioned USPS can be used for FFL to FFL, since a C&R is a FFL can I ship a handgun to another C&R via USPS?

No. USPS only allows FFL dealer to FFL dealer (or manufacturer). C&R holders are not dealers, so no go.

Do you know if Fedex only ships overnight air like UPS when it comes to handguns?

"Firearms must be shipped via FedEx Priority Overnight service. FedEx Express cannot ship or deliver firearms C.O.D. Firearms shipments cannot be placed in a FedEx Express Drop Box."

UPS will let you ship Next Day Air Saver, and will most likely be cheaper.
