I have a client who wants to sell a rifle to someone in Colorado and wants me to ship it UPS from one FFL to another FFL.  Do I enter the rifle into my A&D and then immediately sign it back out?  Or do I just need to verify the shipping to FFL info and ship it on it's way? The rifle is all packed up by the customer, do I need to open it and get SN and info for my books or just ship?
I was thinking of charging $20 plus cost of shipping.  What are some ideas there too?
Thanks

Enter into your book when you receive it, and then enter it out when you ship.  Same day is fine.

Same here. In from who you got it from, out to who you are sending it to. Same dates are fine.

Cost should be whatever you think is appropriate, and makes it worth your time.  A very reasonable fee could lead to a decent revenue stream in shipping handguns out to be worked on, since FFL-FFL can go USPS priority mail.  If your fee plus the cheap postage is substantially less than FedEx saver air, but still worth your time and effort...

Thanks for all the advice, this was just the first time in a few years that I had this request and wanted to be sure I had done it correctly, which I had. And yes, several years ago it was probably covered but as a full time veterinarian and the multitude of other hats I wear, I just wanted to be 100% correct.  In school I was told the only dumb question was the one you didn't ask
Thanks to all for refreshing this in my mind!
