The Firing Line Forums - View Single Post - Transfer Question: do I have to ship to the destination FFL

I couldn't find this topic when I searched, but if it's buried deep maybe it needs updating anyhow.

so I am going to visit a friend in Texas. I don't live in Texas. He and I have been talking about selling (to him) one of my firearms.

If I brought it down with me and we spent some range time together and he liked it enough to buy, could I then just walk into a local FFL with him while I'm there and do the background check for xfer there? Or do I have to take the firearm back home and ship the firearm from my home state to the FFL for some reason?

Thanks
