shipping out of state

[battleship]

Do i have to go to my local FFL dealer and have him ship my hangun out of state to an FFL dealer in another state, or can i just package the gun up at my residence and ship it with UPS or FEDEX myself.

I have an interested party in another state who is wanting to purchase a handgun from me, this is why im asking.

Use the FFL.

This is a pretty novice question that has been asked and answered many times since you have been a member.

You do NOT need to use an FFL to ship a non-AW. If it were a long gun, you can just take it to the post office to ship it. Since it is a handgun, you need to ship it via common carrier (UPS, FedEx). You must ship it next day air, declare that it is a firearm, and ship it via a shipping hub, not a retail location like UPS Store or mailboxes etc.

INSURE IT UP THE WAZOO

As stated above....You can send it yourself as long as it is not an AW.

But before sending besure you recive a copy of the ffl that you are sending
to and bring a copy of it incase FedEx/UPS want to see it.
