Question: I have a lower receiver for sale on website. I was contacted by a resident of Minnesota about shipping to them. Anybody have any ideas on what the laws are about selling and shipping out of state?

Have his FFL contact you. They email or fax a copy of their paperwork to you. Go to the ATF s website and use FFL EZ check to verify. Then ship it to his FFL. It really is as easy as that. Additionally you must make sure that the receiving FFL is willing to accept guns from individuals. Some of them are snarky and will only take from another FFL even though it is not the law.

Thanks Lunker...

Here is the GunBroker link for shipping firearms.

Edited to add: Additionally, you should contact an FFL for more information abut shipping a AR lower. I know that on the form it is marked as "Other", as in Other than long gun or handgun. I believe that the long gun rules apply but it would be best to double check.
