Does anyone know if this is allowed. Individual non-ffl dealer to a ffl gunsmith, I'm having him build me a new rifle in .17 squirrel and need to ship him made ammo.

Easiest thing to do is to load up some rounds, no primers or powder and mail them to him.

When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere.

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.
