Gun transportation?

rjloun
I live in Colorado... My buddy's brother is in town from North Carolina for the holidays, he wants to buy my 10/22 and obviously "take" it home. We are both legal to own firearms and face to face w/out ffl is legal where I live.

Question one: In Colorado, Can I LEGALLY sell to an out of State resident without an ffl transfer?

Question two: How does he legally transport the gun home when he leaves? (He is flying not driving)

    Transfers of firearms between unlicensed residents of different states is prohibited and the transfer will have to be done though an FFL dealer in Colorado. It is perfectly legal for a person from NC to buy a long gun from a dealer in CO, but not from a private individual. He can ship the rifle back home with his checked baggage, but call the airline first to find out the specific rules for transporting firearm with the carrier.

    Mark is absolutely correct. An unlicensed person may sell face-to-face to a resident of his OWN state only. Either have a Colorado dealer do the transfer to him, OR- you ship to a FFL holder in his home state, who does the transfer. Yes, an unloaded rifle in a locked hard case may be DECLARED and shipped in your checked baggage. See your airline website AND the TSA website for info on traveling with firearms.
