Call Fedex and see what they say about shipping.
You may need a dealer license or be required to follow the same rules as they do for interstate owner transfer. Seems risky to me but go ahead and send me one and we will see how it goes.

If the gun is legal in the state and county where it is shipped, there are generally no real hang-ups - except (of course) in CA, and even more so in Los Angeles County. Here, the transfer has to be facilitated through a state-licensed fire-arms dealer.

CHAPTER 44--FIREARMS

Sec. 922. Unlawful acts

(a) It shall be unlawful--
(1) for any person--
(A) except a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, or
licensed dealer, to engage in the business of importing,
manufacturing, or dealing in firearms, or in the course of such
business to ship, transport, or receive any firearm in
interstate or foreign commerce; or
(B) except a licensed importer or licensed manufacturer, to
engage in the business of importing or manufacturing ammunition,
or in the course of such business, to ship, transport, or
receive any ammunition in interstate or foreign commerce;

[-]

(5) for any person (other than a licensed importer, licensed
manufacturer, licensed dealer, or licensed collector) to transfer,
sell, trade, give, transport, or deliver any firearm to any person
(other than a licensed importer, licensed manufacturer, licensed
dealer, or licensed collector) who the transferor knows or has
reasonable cause to believe does not reside in (or if the person is
a corporation or other business entity, does not maintain a place of
business in) the State in which the transferor resides; except that
this paragraph shall not apply to (A) the transfer, transportation,
or delivery of a firearm made to carry out a bequest of a firearm
to, or an acquisition by intestate succession of a firearm by, a
person who is permitted to acquire or possess a firearm under the
laws of the State of his residence, and (B) the loan or rental of a
firearm to any person for temporary use for lawful sporting
purposes;

Short answer.... Giving a gun to someone who lives out
of state may not be wise. You sure don't want to mail it. I am
not an attorney and this is only my crude attempt to give an
answer.

Transferring firearms interstate is perfectly legal providing the transfer goes through an ffl, both at the sellers side and buyer side. the recipient must pass a FBI background check in order for the transfer to take place. With that eing said, send me everything you getting rid of please.

Contact the Nearest dealer to you if you are going to purchase the firearm as a give away they would most likely handle all of the terms needed to transfer ownership and transportation as part of the deal, just a thought
