The FFL has to contact the seller to send a digital copy of his FFL as well as shipping instructions.rotor wrote:I purchased one item through Gun Broker. I notified the FFL that I was going to use him. All good. The gun was delivered to me and not the FFL. What a mess. Took the gun to FFL, did required paperwork, etc. Notified the seller that they could have been in serious trouble but they never responded. 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?
My FFL Tom Hart, of Hart Sports in Plano, TX (off Legacy) charges CHLers $10, $20 for those who are not.
The only time that you do not need to use an FFL is when you are shipping back a firearm to the original manufacture for warranty work. (No transfer of ownership)
