SHIPPING OF FIREARMS-WARNING
« on: May 11, 2009, 10:52:52 AM »
If you think you can ship modern firearms to a buyer you are DEAD wrong. You can ship a gun to the manufacturer, to a gun smith or to yourself as long as YOU open the package where it arrives.

I just off the phone with Dave Workman from the 2nd Amendment people, so I know this information is accurate and correct.

You have to use an FFL dealer plain and simple.

i don't know how true that is within state bounds.
definitely true when crossing state lines. it becomes interstate commerce and becomes a federally regulated activity....i have called the ATF and asked them because i have about 15 long guns and pistols in NY that need to be sent to me.

it may be a worthwhile trip the prices i am having to pay... :bash: i have 2 of them inbound right now. $70.00 down and they're not even here yet.
another $70 when they get here.
handguns, from NY anyway, have to go from an FFL holder to an FFL holder so you get the double wammy. the long guns can be shipped from my dad to an FFL holder, and the transfer fees are a little less, so those won't be so bad.

his buddy is the guy who is the moose hunter. i'm sure he'd be happy to meet, as long as you don't mind a spotter or 2 on your moose hunt.  :chuckle:

back on track gentlemen.

i think as long as they are in your posession then you are ok.
i could ship the guns in my name from NY to myself here in WA but that would be bending the rules some and i don't want to do that.

I was at the post office the other day and  a guy in front of me got a box of ammunition in from a private party.  He just about couldn't carry it it was so heavy.  Postal clerk said, wow thats heavy and the guy goes, yep its a whole bucnh of ammo.  You can't buy any here so I bought it on ebay........ :dunno:  I thought that was wrong in so many ways, but the clerk didn't bat an eye.
