The slide is not the regulated part of a firearm so I would believe you can send it anyway you want.
USPS is fine. Just mark it as parts.

Why mark it as anything? I've never put what the item is on any package mailed domestically. If the post office wants to know what is inside the package, they aren't going to just believe what is written on the outside, they are going to xray it.
Just repeating a instructions given to me by a firearms manufacturer when I needed to send a malfunctioning gun to them for repairs.
In regards to marking the envelope and whatnot, I am all set simply because I am using the SASE that Ruger sent me so I am certain they did whatever, if anything, had to be done. I just wanted to make sure I could use the USPS.
If you are mailing to a ffl you can mail a part or a whole firearm via USPS. You dont have to label it ****.....I would recommend getting a tracking number either thru insurance or delivery confirmation requiring a signature of 21 years or older. I am a letter carrier of 21 years and yes you can do this. I have a gun shop on my route who gets guns nearly every day.
