Sellers can sell to remote buyers without shipping it themselves.
Buyer sends payment to seller. Could be USPS money order, which most banks deposit just like checks. Many bank apps let you deposit it on a smartphone. Or send cash Registered Mail.
Buyer pays seller's nearby FFL to ship it to buyer's FFL.
After seller is confident the payment is clear, drive gun to nearby FFL and drop it off. FFL mails the gun to buyer's FFL.
No more hassle for seller than selling it in person at the same FFL.
Also, ShipMyGun is still an option even after UPS's rule changes. UPS has a contract with Bud's Gun Shop (which is Ship My Gun) that makes exceptions to some general rules about gun shipments.
