This topic touches on a question I've had for some time so bear with me....

I've never sent a pistol through the mail and I don't have a FFL or C&R license. The only times I've ever received a pistol through the mail was when I made a purchase, and then I had the guns sent to a FFL dealer who handled the transfer before letting me take possession.

Since I'm not transferring ownership of the pistol, but rather am sending it to a gunsmith to have it reblued, is there any special procedure I have to follow?

Similarly, when the pistol is returned, can I have it sent directly to me or do I have to have it sent to a local dealer so I can pick it up at a later date?

Just curious,

Dave in TN.
