I do not have an FFL, but sold a gun on Gunbroker and just received the FFL to ship to. It looks like it is a copy of a signed copy.
I had a FFL years ago and thought each copy of a FFL must be signed in ink. Has the law changed or did this guy make a mistake? I can't seem to find any info on BATFE's FAQs. Also, is a 02 (Pawnbroker) FFL pretty much the same as a 01 FFL? I assume they can receive a handgun? Thanks! |

You can verify the license through the ATF website. Pawnbroker can receive firearms. |

First, there is a HUGE misconception that an individual must receive a copy of the receiving FFL's license. This is not the case. Never has been. Only an FFL shipping to another FFL is required to provide a copy of their license. And yes, ATF does now allow fax or e-mailed copies (original signature is no longer required).
A Type 02 can do everything a Type 01 can, they're just allowed to pawn firearms too. |
