Question for FFL's

Recommended Posts

I would imagine that most of us know that the most cost effective way to ship a handgun to an FFL in another state for delivery to an individual, is through an FFL in the state of origin. Since FFL's can ship handguns via the USPS and individuals are restricted to using a common carrier like UPS or FedEx - which require next day or second day.

My question is that when an FFL accepts a gun for shipment, do they have to enter it in their bound book?

Adios,

I would imagine yes... especially if going to another FFL... but I had it done both ways.  One of those is no longer in business. lol.

Any guns coming in will be put in the books. Those going out will be on a 4473 or to a FFL.

Gunsmithing is different, but you didn't ask about that. 

There is a company in Alaska that tells people they can ship without dealers logging it in, but I certainly won't and neither will any as it was discussed on the FFLsOnly Forum.

BTW i never ship USPS... We use Fedex...  USPS is horrible.

My first Experience with  USPS was shipping a rifle to VA...  Took 14 days for the tracking to say they actually received the rifle. When it finally tracked it was in Detroit.    Second time was another shit show where it tracked for a day then stopped for a week, It finally got to its destination but was a PITA.

We get packages all the time from USPS.. always seems to be an issue. But i blame that on the Local delivery people.

To be honest FEDEX is not all that more expensive (depending on where its going). Most handguns seem to ship for under 20 bucks unless its going to some rural area and it arrives in 2 days

    • I very seriously doubt this has anything to do with terrorism.    1) Harbor pilots are VERY seriously vetted, and highly trained. Not to mention extremely well paid. My experience knowing a few of them, and knowing how they are recruited and screened tells me that there is a slim to highly unlikely chance that a harbor pilot would have participated in anything like that.    2) Maintenance of foreign flag ships is well known to be dubious. Especially these days. These were NOT US flag, Jones act sailors. It was (to my understanding) a largely Indian crew on that ship, with a Ukrainian Captain. Indian crews are not exactly known for being stellar.    3) The bunkers (fuel) these ships use is ‘Bunker C’, which is a heavy, dirty fuel oil that can, and usually is, pretty contaminated. This stuff ain’t your car grade gasoline or diesel fuel. It’s nasty.   It requires nearly constant filter changes and maintenance to the engine/generators. The ship took on fuel prior to departing port, which would stir up all kinds of shit in the fuel tanks, which would contribute to particulates in the fuel lines/filters.    4) I’d say the posting of the chief engineer for Maserek above was pretty spot on as far as chain of events.    This was a shitty accident, with horrible timing and outcome. Not a terror attack. 
    • I saw Lara's interview on Bannon's War Room, and that gave me pause for thought. Her conjecture depends primarily on the veracity of her sources. Regardless, if it's not applicable in any way to this ship disaster, the methods described seem valid to me. And worthy of consideration for the future. As I said before, IMO something is coming.
