If you're selling across state lines, under federal law it MUST go to an FFL in the other state. You can ship it directly to the FFL, but its a good idea to CYA and get a copy of his license before shipping.

The receiver must be a FFL. Any "non licensee" [you] can sent to a FFL.
Some idiot gun dealers (not quite a redundancy, but close) think they can't receive a firearm from other than another FFL, so your buyer needs to find one that's smart enough to know this. -- Chuck |

That's what I thought, but wanted some clarification. If they will not send me a copy of their FFL, I have a dealer here I can use. It's just a hassle to try an contact him.
Thanks |

Depends on the states. By Fed law you can buy/sell in adjoining states if they both have a reciprocity agreement. From NJ, I can buy a rifle in PA. Personally I find this amazing as screwed up as NJ is otherwise.
If you're talking about shipping it, it has to go to an FFL. No way around that. |

Just went through this. If you are smart, you will get an ink signed copy of the FFL to whom the buyer wants it shipped, AND you will have your FFL log it in and ship it. This way there is almost no chance you can be accused of illegal trafficking if the other guy is a bogus buyer, and believe me, there are plenty out there. shooter |

Norm G, You cannot legally purchase a rifle from an individual in another state. You can purchase a rifle from a dealer in another state if it is legal in both states.
macloud, If the dealer won't send a copy of his FFL, see if he will send you the first 3 and last 5 digets of his FFL. You can then check the validity of his FFL and confirm his business address at the BATF FFL eZcheck web site. See the link. 204.254.113.252/ |
