Methinks Sig will be receiving a ton of Brycos and Jennings.

[Guest JHatmaker]

Dang, too bad I don't have a gun worth $200.....or maybe that's a good thing.

[tbuford]

Guess I'll get out that Jennings 9 and trade her in....I was scared to shoot the thing anyway!

[Guest db99wj]

Wish Glock would do that, I have a Rossi snub revolver, that works fine, but would rather have a Glock 26/27.

[USMCJG]

Dang, too bad I don't have a gun worth $200.....or maybe that's a good thing.

Same here. Unfortunately/fortunately I don't own any clunkers.

[Guest jwb68]

Has to be something over 9mm and work.

[JeffsSig]

anyone want to buy a jennings 22 for 100.00? :-)

Good try but a .22 wont work.

[SavageSig]

Weak. In this market it's hard to imagine a 9mm/.38 in working condition worth less than 200. Maybe a new high point?

[9teeneleven]

Plus you lost $50 shipping it there.

Reading it again, I think you're right. How do they expect people to ship a POS overnight on their own dime?

[Guest canynracer]

used hipoint....

[THE COOP]

WTB, $10 Highpoint, have cash in hand!!! COOP

[Metalhead]

A common mistake is that handguns have to be shipped overnight. I dont know where it started, but it's not law that they have to be shipped that way.

The way I understood it, non-FFL holders must use a private shipping service and those shipping services require firearms to be sent overnight. If there is a cheaper way to ship, I am all ears.

Yeah, have your FFL ship it for you. I've shipped a few handguns and have always done it through an FFL. Costs like $15-$20 max.

Disassemble firearm, go to UPS or whomever, ship ground and if they ask it's just parts. Which, as a disassembled firearm would not be a lie...

No kidding...I guess it's not like UPS can throw your butt in jail for not following their house rules. You just saved me 30-40 bucks! Thanks!

Then why do frames/receivers have to go through an FFL?

Federal law also requires you to inform them it's a firearm. Merely disassembling it doesn't quite cut it.

[deerslayer]

Take it apart all you want--if you ship a frame/receiver, you are shipping a gun.

[Metalhead]

There is nothing federal that says you HAVE to ship a firearm, pistol or rifle, next day air. As far as UPS or Fedex is concerned, it's parts, nothing more.

At least, ups isnt the guv'ment yet.

This is not true.

This is not true.

Then prove me wrong. If I am wrong, by all means I will apoligize.

The ATF considers the frame/receiver the actual firearm, correct? Yes. You are required by federal law to inform the shipper that your shipment contains a firearm, by extrapolation, if your shipment contains a frame/receiver, then you must inform it contains a firearm. So telling someone that you ship it as "parts" is advocating circumvention of federal law.

(B8) May a nonlicensee ship a firearm by common or contract carrier? [Back]

A nonlicensee may ship a firearm by a common or contract carrier to a resident of his or her own State or to a licensee in any State. A common or contract carrier must be used to ship a handgun. In addition, Federal law requires that the carrier be notified that the shipment contains a firearm and prohibits common or contract carriers from requiring or causing any label to be placed on any package indicating that it contains a firearm.
