    Question about selling a gun

    I have a relic Japanese Nambu that I wish to sell. Since it is a relic, would I still need to ship it to a C&R of FFL if it were to sell?
    Thanks, Hayden

    Yes. If the receiver is intact it must go to a FFL. If the serial number has been removed it is illegal to possess.

      Serial number is intact and present. Receiver is intact.

          Here is a picture of the gun. Upon disassembly, there is little pitting on the inside. Does anyone know where i can get a replacement trigger spring, grips, and magazine? That is all that is needed to make this gun functional.

            Gun Parts Corp has some parts for Nambu's and you may want to look at what they have available.

              Just an aside: even if the handgun receiver is completely disassembled it must be shipped to a dealer if shipped interstate, or if eligible, to a C+R FFL03. It is illegal for a non-licensee to ship a handgun or concealable weapon by USPS regardless of where it is going. Common carriers are the only alternative for shipping, and carriers like UPS and Fed-Ex require that handguns go 2nd day air.

                Without seeing the side with the arsenal marks and serial number it's hard to tell what you have. A rarer gun might be worth rebuilding ,as was previously stated, finding some non-matching small parts. It looks rough to me, and another option is not to sell the receiver (which as Johnny stated correctly requires a FFL to transfer across state lines for Federal laws) but sell the rest of it that doesn't require a FFL. You see guys legally parting out the rest on E-Bay and Gunbroker all the time. Depending on what state you live in, you might be able to a face to face transfer to another resident of your state without a FFL being involved. You would have to research your state and local laws.

                Just depends if you are just looking some money, or doing a restoration.
