Definitely sounds fishy. Look up FFL in his area for his shipping address and tell him you can only send it to them then see what he says.

The buyer wants me to ship the kit to his address and the receiver to his FFL. Ok, but his FFL is in a different state than his shipping address. Seems fishy, can you shed any light as to the legality of this. Thanks Nothing fishy, nothing illegal. I would confirm the addresses though and make sure they are correct. |

Yeah, just confirm the FFL here: https://www.atfonline.gov/fflezcheck/
Nothing strange about any of that, unless it's some place with weird protocol like CA (for the receiver). |

Make sure you get paid.
He will have a nasty surprise when the FFL: cannot deliver his receiver to him out of state. It is NOT a 'long gun' but an 'other.' The law says long guns (ONLY) outside your state. |

Did it several times myself since I have more than one home and do not hassle with dual residency documentation. |

Or he can take the parts to the FFL, turn his "other" into a "long-gun" and FFL transfer can then take place across state lines (assuming the applicable state laws allow for such). |

Ok, but his FFL is in a different state He will not be able to pick up the receiver from an FFL in a different state. He will be able to if he legally resides in that state. Or maybe he can buy from both states as he has residences in both states like I do. Or he is military and has more than one residence. Or maybe the FFL is an 07, and will make it a long gun with a different upper. So many legal possibilities. |

My attorney makes plenty of money from folks who try to evade federal laws. By the time he gets involved things have gone from bad to a stinking pile. He is very cognizant of BATFE rules and regulations. He always has an amusing story about screws ups by people that should not better. |

Are you implying the OP should become a vigilante ATF agent and refuse the sale because the buyer COULD BE breaking the law? That's asinine. There are many legal explanations for why the buyer is asking for what he is asking for, we're simply pointing those out so the OP knows it. If you have more information about the specifics of this situation then please share them. |
