    From what I gather reading the ATF web site a nonlicensee may ship a handgun to a holder of a FFL license in any state. Am
    I reading this right?

    one exception to what henry said- if you are shipping a HANDGUN to New York State, it must be shipped BY a dealer TO A dealer. NY state law does not permit a NY dealer to RECIEVE a shipped firearm from anyone other than a dealer. Which is a real problem if you are selling handgun RECEIVERS to companies like Numrich- in West Hurley NY. Numrich mentions this on their website.

    BiggerHammer24,

    Look at Section 'B' - Unlicensed Persons for all the constraints. It's easy and straight forward:

    Best.


    non mortuus,

    "You can't ship a 'gun' directly to someone unless that someone is an ffl, or curio license holder if gun is curio eligable."

    This is untrue.

    I can ship a firearm to a another resident in my home state, within the state.

    I can ship a firearm(s) to myself in another state without going through a dealer if it's addressed to me personally so long as no one opens the package except me.

    All other rules apply to shipping a firearm to another unlicensed person out-of-state.

    Best.
