Hi Peso, Unfortuneately, if it is a modern made "cartridge" gun, and the receiver is intact, regardless of the gun's condition, it will require transfer via a FFL-holder, unless I just don't understand the rules on this. (As far as the BATFE is concerned, the receiver is the gun.) Maybe someone could loan or rent to you an old or reproduction flintlock or percussion-type shotgun. Then, it could be shipped, mailed, etc. without restriction. Do you have to paint it white? Just a thought. The wedding sounds like it will be a lot of fun!

Goody, SASS #26190 Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 I believe that an antique, pre 1899, can ship direct. I have an older hammer gun, Belgian I do believe. It's got cheap laminated barrels, missing one hammer, but it makes up for it with "character". It opens by pushing a lever down on the side of the receiver. If I can find it, and you want it, I'll let it go for $100 plus shipping and fees. We will need to see if it's and antique or not. IIRC marked W Richards(no, not that one). Looks like this, only not near so clean. http://auction.theauctionblock.com/details.cfm?ID=419714 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
