There is a legal way to ship a firearm to yourself without a ffl. Google for details and services.Not to hijack but just out of curiosity...if I buy a weapon here in Oregon and didn't want to go through the rigamarole of travel with it...could I ship it to an FFL in Alaska for safe keeping until I get there and then pick it up, sans BG check?

It can be shipped to yourself. ATF entry here.
I agree, it's not that much of an issue to travel with a firearm … there are a lot of discussions on the subject here. In reality just plan on arriving 30 - 45 minutes earlier than normal to the airport just in case there is a slow down in the process.It's not much rigmarole to travel with firearms, less IMO than shipping to yourself or trying to buy (illegal through a FFL out of home state for handguns)
The more you do it the more versed you become and thus more comfortable in doing so.

It isn't clear if he is flying or driving. Driving would involve travel through Canada which is problematic and shipping to yourself would make sense.It's not much rigmarole to travel with firearms, less IMO than shipping to yourself or trying to buy (illegal through a FFL out of home state for handguns)

Guns and Canada, Alaska Department of Fish and GameThe last I heard one cannot bring a handgun to Canada and they will take it from you at the border and store it until you come back.
