IF I list a pistol on gunbroker. Do I have to pay for someone's FFL to send the pistol and the buyer has to pay for someones FFL to receive?? How does this work? I have bought a few but haven't sold any.

    Most ffl will not charge you to send a gun but will charge the buyer to recieve it.Contact a local ffl to make sure what their charges are.

    Have an FFl send it to another FFL or send it yourself to an FFL. If you send it yourself then you must use UPS or FEDEX. The only charges that you face doing it yourself is shipping, which must be overnight from my understanding.

    You do not need a FFL to send any gun, but the person receiveing it must have a FFL or C&R license. Some FFL holders take advantage of people and tell you different only to get into your billfold. My info came direct from the ATF. The P.O. will accept firearms.

    If you have a dealer send it, you will only have to pay U.S. Postal shipping fees so the shipping fees will be lower. However, that dealer may charge you a $20 fee to send it so you may as well head down to FedEX with an ink-signed copy of the receiving party's FFL and do it yourself.
