Would shipping a pistol to a private party in your own state be considered an "ftf" private sale? I haven't found anything to the contrary, other than the words "face to face". To put a twist on it, you buy a gun that you shot with a range, but he takes it home (300 miles away) to clean it (or something) first. Can he mail it to you? Or maybe he has another one in better condition at his home.......

Maybe on GB you buy a pistol from someone in your state, Can payment and receiving done by mail only, to avoid the FFL charge in the middle without having to actually see the guy selling?
 
It depends on your state laws. In TN, I could sell and send a pistol directly to someone on the other end of the state if it's a private transaction. In California, I'd be committing a felony.
