I did a search but could not find an answer to this one. My son is living up in Alaska for the summer. He asked me if I could ship his .410 up to him so he can do some small game hunting while he's there.
From what I have gathered, this should be okay without using FFL's since there is no transfer of ownership taking place, I am shipping him his own firearm. However, I can't seem to find anything on the USPS website to back this up. I asked my local small town postmaster, but he thinks any firearms shipped must go through an FFL.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to find an answer, and even better something I can bring in to the Post Office to show them when I ship it?
