The law is even more restrictive than that.

You can not ship your own gun, purchased through a dealer and with the background check, back to the manufacturer for warranty and then receive it when warranty is completed, without both shipments going through a licensed firearms dealer.

So disappointing to every day see Fox talking about “buying a gun over the internet.” They should know better.

The way I read it,you can’t do a private face to face sale, either, after advertising the firearm on the internet for sale. Without going through an FFL.

Actually you can and I recently did just that. My wife's Beretta NEOS needed some work due to a recall. We printed out a UPS label provided by Beretta and a UPS driver came to the house and picked it up. When the work was complete, UPS shipped it back. Of course my wife had to be there to pick it up.

Maybe in some proposed law, but not today. A citizen can ship his firearm back to the manufacture for repairs and have it returned without the involvement of FFL dealers.

Please get your facts straight before posting on forums such as this.

Yet another unconstitutional infringement. An invalid law that must be challenged, along with all the others, up to the supremes.

Uh, when was this law in place?

Few years ago I shipped my Walther PPK/S to S&W for repair using UPS, and S&W returned it to my UPS - if I remember correctly......

Sold it after it was fixed.

??? You don’t mean for repair do you? I sent my Blackhawk back to Ruger for an extra cylinder. Costs a lot, but FEDEX does it.
