Non FFL Dealer-Michigan Seller

DGPinegar
I would like to know if any non FFL sellers from Michigan could possibly contact me? I just need to know some particulars when selling a weapon on the internet (Gunbroker).

    Being a non-FFL and having sold on the internet, I will tell you three things. Get a certified check, a copy of the FFL, and you may need to send a copy of your drivers license to the FFL. It's pretty much that simple.

    However, since you live in Michigan, where everyone who resides there has to have a license to own a pistol, this may apply to you:

    28.422a Individual licensed under MCL 28.425b; completion of record by seller; duties of purchaser; noncompliance
    as state civil infraction; penalty; forwarding copy of record to state police; exemption; materially
    false statement as felony; penalty; rules.

    Read that, fill out the form if you sell it, then you're gtg.

    I pay an FFL to ship to the receiving FFL, cost me $20 extra but I do it for peace of mind, takes me out of the loop, and the liability off my shoulders


    In a case like Michigan, New York, MD, CA or any bigtime gun control states,...I don't blame you.

    That's a good idea, particularly due to the fact that some FFL dealers either can't or won't accept firearms from non-FFL holders.

    I frequently transfer hand guns through an FFL, not because it is required either by my state or the ATF but because it is so darned costly to ship a handgun via UPS. An FFL can ship a hand gun via U S Postal Service far cheaper and I have found it is usually cheaper to pay the FFL fee and the USPS Postage then it is to pay shipping only to UPS or Fed Ex. And, the added benefit is I'm out of the firearms transfer loop upon acceptance by the shipping FFL.

    Now, long guns, that's a different story because I can ship the long gun via U S Postal Service myself. Doesn't even have to be Priority although I usually ship it that way, insured and tracking.
