Shipping Ammo?

[Mirvin 264]

Found a particular rifle ammo I've been looking for (hard to find), but the gentleman lives in Franklin, N.C., which makes a drive counter-productive! Is there a legal process where it can be shipped to me at my location? I've had a handgun shipped to my location through Fed-Ex, but never dealt with an ammo purchase like this- Thanks for any help!

Companies ship ammo to me via ups and fedex regularly. No hazmat or anything else involved.

Just put it in a plain box and ship it.

This^^, but it must be labeled= ORM-D Small arms ammunition.

He might have to drop it off at a distribution hub. I bought some ammo from an ODT member in New Jersey, he marked the box correctly, and the UPS guy wouldn't take it. He printed his own shipping label for home pickup. He ended up having to drive to Philadelphia to drop it off at an authorized location.

I've never shipped ammo, but he made it seem like a hassle.

If you are not a registered FFA dealer, then this was highly illegal. You can not ship a handgun to a person who doesn't have a FF License, and you can't receive a handgun from anyone unless you have a license.

He probably means it was shipped to a local FFL, but it could be read either way.

Wrong, if you sent a handgun out for repair, whomever did the repairs is allowed to send it directly back to you.

I hate to tell you, but you're 100% wrong. I had a Springfield XD go in for warranty work and the transaction had to be handled through my FFL.
