so they will ship it ti the mailing address on the FFL? or do I need toget a hold of him to verify??
This is all under the help section on gunbroker under "Buyer". You need to make sure you notify your FFL before buying. Also make sure he is registered with gunbroker as this makes it easier but it is not required. You can search on gunbroker to see if they have your FFL. They ship to the FFL (except in my case they screwed up and shipped to me). The whole thing is not difficult but read the instructions on gunbroker.

Got the firearm that I wanted but the seller (with many positive ratings) could have really complicated the deal. My FFL charges $10. Anyone else ever have that kind of problem?
Oops! Never had anyone ship a firearm directly to me, only my FFL. I had a seller ship a Ruger SA revolver to my FFL via the USPS which is a no-no.
From what I have read a FFL can ship a hand gun to another FFL by USPS...

"Handguns can only be sent by an FFL holder to an FFL holder. A postal form PS 1508 is filed with each handgun shipment where the sender certifies that they and the recipient are FFL licensed dealers, manufacturers or importers."
