Buds Gun Shop has a webpage for FFL's searchable by zipcode. Gives you a way to start looking.

That is absolutely incorrect and advising someone to commit a federal felony.

The only circumstances where an interstate transfer between non-licensees is allowed is when a firearm is bequeathed at death.

Every interstate transfer of a firearm between living people requires a licensee (FFL) to be part of the transaction.

Re: Giving a shotgun as a gift while out of state

Yes, that is legal. You can hand deliver the shotgun to the Florida FFL who will then transfer it to your parents. :thumbs2: :thumbs2:

You sound like a good son!
