Re: "Gifting" a firearm across state lines

SCone has it correct, with this one proviso: many shippers won't accept the package unless the sender holds an FFL. This is their policy, not law; by law, only the interstate recipient has to be licensed.

But, there is a plus to using an FFL on the sending end: they can use 2nd day air or other, cheaper, shipping options. If the sender ships it himself, it's going to cost $40-60 just for shipping, where an FFL can ship for $25 or so.

Despite the outrage of discrimination, it can be worth it to use an FFL on both ends.
