If you order and pay for an item online which requires FFL transfer (rifle)....
Go to a local FFL holder to support the transfer on your end, pay him a transfer fee. He faxes copy of his FFL to seller. Souldn't the item come to the FFL holder, and he will in turn call you to come pick it up? What if the seller ships it direct to the buyer? Is this a problem? If so, what shoud you do when the rifle shows up on your doorstep? Thanks |

Quoted:
it wont show up anyplace but the ffl on file with them before they send it Well, it SHOULDN'T show up anywhere but the Mailing Address on the FFL copy you had sent to the shipping FFL. BUT, things happen, and more than once a package has gone straight to the purchaser, rather than to their FFL. Most times, you just grab the package and carry it down to your Receiving FFL, who logs it into his book, then does the NICS/4473 process to log it back out to you. Same thing he would have done if it arrived in the mail. That is as close to 'fixed' as the process can get after the original shipping screwup. But, 99.99999% of the time, you'll just get a call from your Receiving FFL letting you know 'your gun is here, come get it.' Good Luck! FluxPrism |
