My wife worked for the Atmospheric Sciences Department at the U or W when they had a Douglas B-23 Dragon used to do aerosol research. (Cloud sampling). At one time they were asked to do some research in France and the French Gvmt required that the bomb bay doors be welded shut before it would be...

I learned long ago not to talk to the "counter monkeys". about legalities. It's the Postmaster only and, even then, sometimes they're just a jumped up monkey.

I think I would talk to the Post Office........ (not a gunboard)

I hadn't heard of this one, but I can see the problem could be proving just when the "alteration" took place.

No longer true for FFL03's and hasn't been for a number of years.

Wouldn't a strict reading of this include most C&B revolvers? They usually have a frame of some sort....

What's the old saying? "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink." Frank has shown you the water, whether or not you partake is up to you. Just don't cry foul if it doesn't go your way.....

Do you know where you are staying in Sitka? If so, why not just ship it to yourself at the Sitka address and not mess with FFL's at all I'm sure the hotel etc. will hold a package for a guest....

j Wouldn't this just have the same problems of having it shipped from a FFL in Juneau to a fFFL in Sitka? You might look into renting one (for "sporting purposes") Of course this would probably involve an Alaska hunting license and possibly some kind of a guided hunt reservation.... I like...

Use the bench to find what the gun and load are capable of. Then go to position to see what the shooter is capable of. Shoot for groups and adjust sights accordingly.
