I recently sold a gun to a memeber in Austin and was told I could just ship the gun straight to him as long as it was a long gun? Can some one point out the exact place or what code I need to be searching for, I want to stay legal on this deal. THANKS

Save ya lot of reading... 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. [18 U.S.C. 922(a)(2)(A), 922(a) (3), 922(a)(5) and 922(e), 27 CFR 478.31 and 478.30]

That is just what I needed to ease my mind. I have always shipped to an FFL in state, never knew it was really this easy.
