Buying handgun in state private!

[No2sc2]

Is it true that private seller/buyer can ship handguns in the same state?

 

[mgonza]

yes

 

[drtybykr]

Yup.

 

[spamcastle]

Yes....but there are restrictions you need to keep in mind. Don't get excited and throw that puppy in a flat rate bow or you may have a few years to think about your mistake.

Yeah I think only fedex and UPS right? I know USPS is only for FFL dealers to FFL dealers... Can someone correct me so I know the right path to head down!

A non-licensee cannot ship a handgun through USPS.

UPS or FedEx and you're good to go...make sure it is unloaded, pack it up, and head to a central hub office.

I'm going to be different and say yes. I use UPS since they're easier for me.

Does the package need to be identified as a firearm?

From UPS's website: The labeling and outer box markings on all firearms shipments should not identify the contents as containing a firearm. Labeling, including the shipper's and consignee's abbreviated names on the shipping label or air shipping document, must be non-descriptive
