As an FFL holder, like Mr Boyd I am required to know the law , not speculate on it. When in doubt we discuss with our ATF office to get clarification. I was advised within the last three weeks that receiving from an out of state shipper ( individual)for another party care and control of the gun has passed to me. I must log it in at close of business and it should go in my Acquisition & Disposition Book. It can only leave to the original
owner via an FFL in recipients state. In addition to the Federal Laws and my home state laws I am also required to comply with any and all state laws in the sender/recipients state. It is, I suspect, for this reason that FFLs are becoming increasingly reluctant to accept non FFL shipments involving transfer from out of state.
