    Default Shipping- please help

    Before I start, YES I've already read the sticky and been on just about every website possible.. I just need a yes or no response.

    Is it possible and legal to ship a firearm from my location to a buyer in PA. This is not a modern firearm or old enough to be classified as antique. It's a 40's era military bolt rifle. I nor the buyer has a c&r. Can I ship to his location direct or do I need to ship to an FFL or have it shipped by an FFL. This may be common sense to some, but it's just a precaution so I'd figure I'd ask, thanks

    As a PA resident, you can ship a long gun directly to another (non-prohibited) PA resident via USPS, UPS, or FedEx. No FFL involvement is required.

    As gnbrotz stated..

    However, most carriers will not ship a firearm without a FFL on one end of the shipment.

    Thanks that's what I meant, the law seems ok to follow but the carriers are where it seemed fuzzy, thanks for the responses
