Fedex mess up

[robbins290]

Has Fedex ever messed up with you guys and delivered a gun to your house and not an FFL?

Can’t say that’s ever happened. I’d assume you’d want to give your FFL a heads up.

I did Tgizzard, It was a hassle, and I mean a hassle. They did finally receive it and i did the background check.

Been buying guns since 2003, and this is the first time i ever had one shipped to my house, when it was addressed to an FFL.

How did FedEx get your home address if it was addressed to your FFL?

I can understand the seller messing up and addressing it to you though. But that doesn’t seem to be what you are saying?

they shipped to the billing address and not the ffl address. and then they refuse to change the address to ship it to the FFL, 20 miles away.

I had it happen in MT once. Was not a major deal, I called my ffl, took the unopened package to them, they opened it and logged it in and I signed it out on a 4473.

Pretty much what i had to do. But spent way. To much time between fedex and the shipper. I ended up giving up, leaving work and hand delivered it to the ffl.

I had a mixup once while having a stripped lower sent to the Rod and Gun Club on the base I was stationed at. Package ended up at the main administrative building for the base, buried in a mailing bin. After a few days I walked in to talk to the staff. Some poor E-2 looked very worried and found the box, and tried to hand it over to me on the spot.

They got it down to the club that day and I started the paperwork.

Sometimes stuff happens.

Just wondering what would happen if you received a gun directly, and didn't take it to an FFL for the 4473 transfer. What ramifications would there be?

I was curious about that, I looked it up. Its a big no no according to the gun laws in place. Accepting a transfer from across state line or something. I read a the law (which I lost the link to). I will try to find it again.
