Need shipping advice

Can anyone tell me what the "rule" "law" is on shipping firearms? I have a C&R and would like to have a few firearms shipped cross country to me but the seller is not an FFL or C&R holder, can he still ship those firearm? And can a private seller ship to a type 1 FFL in order to do a transfer? Any help would d be appreciated.

Yes, a nonlicensee can ship a firearm to a Type 01 licensee anywhere in the country.
All C&R's are sent a copy of Firearms Curios or Relics List (ATF P5300.11); you need to read it.

Violation of federal firearms laws is a felony; even a minor mistake can result in arrest & prosecution.

You can ship a long gun by USPS, UPS, or Fedex. The key word in this case is "rifle".
