IowaDeerHunter Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 If this should go elsewhere that is fine, wasn't exactly sure where to go with it. I am wondering if I have to ship a muzzleloader, out of state if that matters, to a local ffl dealer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Washi Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 Re: shipping guns. You can ship a muzzleloader straight to the person you sell it to. No need for FFL. By the way, to send powder (like your Pyrodex pellets) you would have to pay a $20 hazardous shipping fee to send it through UPS so it would be better to just not include those in your sale.

Anything explosive can not be shipped unless you pay a hefty fee.... Im assuming it stays on the ground in said case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Finn Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 Re: shipping guns. I just shipped my Omega to my Dad in Wisconsin last week through UPS. No problem at all. Didn't ship the powder, just the Omega. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haz-mat (for the most part) cannot be shipped by air due to non-pressurized cargo bays and other safety reasons. You can thank the government for tthe $20 haz-mat handling fee at UPS (and other carriers). The B.S. and paperwork required to move the hazardous stuff is staggering and costs accordingly. UPS ain't just pocketing 20 bucks of gravy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
