Federal law allows you to ship your firearm directly to me from any state. You DO NOT need to ship through a licensed dealer (FFL). You may ship to me, and I can ship the firearm directly back to you (with adult signature) without going through a FFL holder. (I must return the weapon to the exact address and person who sent it to me. I cannot send it to another return address.) I do have a valid FFL indicated on our FAQ page.
It is best to ship with UPS. You will have to take your packaged firearm to a UPS Customer Center and declare it a firearm. Handguns must be shipped 2nd day air or faster, long guns can be shipped ground. Call your local UPS office to find out where to drop off your firearm for shipment, call their main customer service line (1-800-742-5877), or use their interactive map at http://www.ups.com/dropoff.
Visit UPS's "Shipping Firearms and Ammunition page" for more detailed information.
PLEASE SEND THE ENTIRE FIREARM. I may need to test fire to make sure that the firearm is operational and safe. I cannot guarantee the operation and safety of your gun if you only send part of it to me.
Before sealing, make sure you download, print, fill out and include the GUN REPAIR REQUEST FORM with your firearm.

When your firearm arrives, I will inspect it, and call you with an estimate for repairs. I can accept payment directly over the phone, or you can send me payment in the mail. Checks must clear before any work begins.
If your box is still in good shape, I will return your firearm in the original box, or I will substitute with a new box for $5.00. Return shipping, repairs + parts will be included in the final price.
