I had some questions on a potential sale of a rifle from an individual out of state. The lead came through a co-worker off of a non-firearm forum. Here are the details.
Thanks for any help on my questions.
- I'm in TN, he's is MI.
- If I understand correctly he is eligible to ship it direct to a FFL in TN without getting a FFL in MI involved. Correct?
- He also has ammo he is selling with the rifle. I believe the ammo has to be shipped separate from the rifle. Correct?
- He is eligible to ship the ammo direct to me via UPS or Fedex correct?
- Assuming I end up doing the purchase, since he is an individual, how do I protect myself in the purchase. I don't want to just send the money without knowing if he will ship the rifle. I doubt he will ship it without payment first. Is there a way to pull this off?
