Actually when you ship a rifle or shotgun within the same state, I don't believe you need a FFL on either end. If you ship a rifle or shotgun out of state, the receiver must have a FFL, but the sender doesn't. I mailed a rifle through the United States Postal Service to a guy somewhere back east (I think Michigan) and I took it to the post office myself and mailed it off to his FFL holder. As far as the money goes, usually the buyer will send the money first and then the gun will be shipped when the money is received. If you take lots of close up pictures and give a honest description of the condition, and sell them at a fair price, then they may not have to see it in person. Guns are sold all the time over the internet and through the mail with no problems.
