    Non-FFL shipping to FFL

    In my opinion, the OP was asking what he was legally required to do, since legal sanctions were possible if he failed to do so. Subjecting himself to the whims and fancies of an FFL never entered into my mind. Since I would never do so myself and would prefer to cancel the transaction, I bid...

    Non-FFL shipping to FFL

    That's all hogwash. All those hoops are not required by law; the use of an FFL who does not have those requirements but follows all BATFE regulations would still constitute a legal transfer. By your convoluted interpretation, an FFL could require a notarized affidavit stating that the seller...

    Non-FFL shipping to FFL

    I wouldn't know of any FFLs who receive packages from anonymous people as I have never sent one anonymously. Besides, this is just another 'Trojan horse' argument on your part. The dealers I work with here in the free state of Nevada do not run background checks on the seller/shipper, only the...

    Non-FFL shipping to FFL

    Again, the OP was not inquiring about any policies than an FFL might have , only what he 'needed to do'. Piling on additional requirements is what you prefer to do; by your own admission it is not required by law, and that was my point. As an aside. it is not up to you to decide what is an...

    Non-FFL shipping to FFL

    As a seller, I would inform the buyer that he'd need to find another FFL to handle the transfer. Not all FFLs want to make non-licensees jump through hoops. mbogo

    Non-FFL shipping to FFL

    The situations you describe are the result of someone not following the law (in the case of the handguns via USPS) or the policies of the common carrier (the sender may have also violated BATFE regulations by not declaring the packages as containing firearms). None of this is germane to the OP...

    Non-FFL shipping to FFL

    The OP asked about what he 'needed to do'. He didn't ask how far he might have to go to satisfy some FFL's business practices, preferences, and policies. In my world, I do only what the law requires, and no more. mbogo

    Non-FFL shipping to FFL

    No, the seller's actual address. We both know that you cannot ship a firearm through a UPS store. You must go to a customer counter at a UPS-staffed location. mbogo

    Non-FFL shipping to FFL

    As I said, there is no Federal law or regulation requiring the seller to include a copy of his/her identification. The 'name and license number' in the section you quoted are for when a Federal Firearms licensee is the transferor. When a non-licensee is the transferor, only name and...

    Non-FFL shipping to FFL

    You are not legally required to include identification in the package. Some FFLs may require it as policy, but there is nmo regulation or law requiring it. If you include a copy of your driver's license, obliterate your date of birth, and the driver identification number on the copy. mbogo

    Registering a class III

    Unless an amnesty period is declared by the U.S. Attorney General, unregistered MGs cannot be registered to a civilian (or trust); if I remember correctly, the last amnesty period was in 1968. It is conceivable that a Class III dealer could make an inquiry of the NFA registry (perhaps through a...

    Problem with California FFL Transfer

    He cannot keep it (it would be an unlawful conversion). Have your friend contact an attorney to send him a letter to either release it in accordance with California and Federal laws or to return to the sender. mbogo

    OK - got one for you - received guns via mail in error

    So, in your mind, a person can 'violate' that provision of the law through no fault or action on their part? A hostile party can send you a firearm and ensnare you in a Kafkae-esque legal nightmare? Do you have any citations to back up your premise? mbogo

    Firearms and a felon co-worker

    Those of you who know he is a felon should not allow him to handle your firearms. You should probably advise your fellow employees of his being a prohibited person discreetly, off-premises. No need to go into the particulars of the felony itself. You can still enter gun stores with him in...
