usmc1974 Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 (edited) WOW, wow Boy I will never ship a hand gun on my own dime again. I made a trade and love the Itialion Beretta I got, but 109.44 to UPS. Wow. Edited April 18, 2018 by usmc1974 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, the first time I shipped one I made the same mistake, only after the fact did I find out that my FFL charges around $30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here and if they do, they want about as much if not more. Then ship when they get the time. Edited April 19, 2018 by usmc1974 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garmil Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 My local FFL ships handguns for me USPS priority $20-25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmaples71 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 I just don't sell across state lines. Make sure to get a copy of their valid driver's license and preferably a concealed carry permit along with a bill of sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For people I do not know I want to go through an FFL, $20.00 gets me piece of mind. Shipping to an FFL is safe and easy but I can understand not wanting to deal with the costs.

mpolans Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 I am very lucky. My FFL doesn't charge for outbound shipments; I just pay him the cost of shipping. He charges me $25 for receiving guns. If you need a guy in Northern Virginia, let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
