My situation is simple, I'm wondering what requirements or options I have to receive a handgun from my parents. They're shipping from South Carolina to me in Oregon. I know an FFL needs to be involved to ship, I have my CHL for Oregon, etc. The questions are more around what can we do to get it to me?
We have an FFL shipper in South Carolina willing to ship to me. However, that's all I can find about transferring in family. Is the fact one person is an FFL enough to mail me the handgun, or does it have to come to another local FFL meaning I have to 'pay' to receive a free item. Also, with family it didn't sound like a background check is required? Not sure if CHL helps, etc.
Looking for advice. Either people to talk to, ways to receive the item, etc.
My only time shipping a firearm involved warranty with Ruger. They gave me a label and I took it into FedEx directly who shipped it to them as an FFL. Then Ruger shipped is right back to me personally with a signature required. So my thoughts are, this can be done with only a single FFL involved?
