well i went in to the gun shop and asked the owner about transferring a stripped lower reciever and whether or not I had to fill out any paperwork before and he just said contact the seller and have it sent here.....Is there anything else I should do? I tried to talk about it more with him to make sure and he was kinda a jackass. The only reason I am using this tool is because there are no closer FFL dealers.
There's only one FFL dealer where I live so I know what you are talking about.
Here in NC the seller will ship it to the FFL dealer that you tell him to. The seller can be from any state
and does not have to use a FFL to send it to a FFL in NC. An FFL dealer in NC can accept a firearm from any one.
It does not have to have your name on the outside of the package. The FFL dealer I use likes
to have a photocopy of the sellers drivers license, ask the seller to put this in the package.
You may want him to put *Attention triggerhappy123* whatever your name
on the outside of the box or at least a note inside saying that it is for you. The FFL should call you when he gets it.
You will go to him and fill out a 4473 and pay whatever transfer fee he charges $15.00 to $35.00
He will hand the receiver to you and out the door you go. Have the seller send you a receipt.
