If I read your question correctly you are asking if a private party (unlicensed person) can ship a gun to an FFL holder in a different State. Absolutely yes. In fact, this is the procedure outlined in the firearms laws, the idea being that the FFL holder will document the transaction in his records. 0 -
I have a C&R license and bought a rifle from a private individual in Co. I sent payment with shipping money. The seller went to a gunshop to get a box to ship it and the dealer told him he could no longer ship it. Any gun shipped out of Co. had to be sent thru a dealer. I asked him to check with another shop and he told me the second guy told him the same thing. The dealer wants an additional $40.00 to ship it and I guess I just don't feel comfortable with this but I don't want to lose the rifle either.

Very strange indeed. I think that you will have to contact the ATF for a reading on this one. It may be that Colorado has passed some legislation in conflict with Federal Law (just as Calif. frequently does), but for some reason I feel that it is unlikely. ATF is current on all the State Laws that effect interstate commerce in firearms. Let us know what you find out. 0 -
You could also check with your Post Office, UPS or FedEx ... sounds like the Co dealers are wanting a cut just like Kalifornification dealers ...

i was told this as well when i sold a shotgun a few weeks ago. i checked with the local atf office, and was told by 3 individuals that shipping a long arm to a liscensee for either repair or sale thru them, it was ok. 0 -
I live in CO, have a C&R and ship to other license holders without furnishing a copy of my C&R. I also receive firearms, after furnishing a copy of my C&R, with out receiving a FFL from the other party. The dealers are pulling a fast one. Who are they because I don't want to deal with them. 0 -
Ya let us know who the dealer(s) are. A rifle can be shipped through the post office by anyone. As long as it is going to a dealer (like you said.)
