FFL can transfer a long gun to out of state resident.
Private sale is illegal.

Exceptions for transfers due to Inheritance

In addition, a licensee may sell a rifle or shotgun to a person who is not a resident of the state where the licensee’s business premises is located in an over–the–counter transaction, provided the transaction complies with state law in the state where the licensee is located and in the state where the purchaser resides.

The buyer lives in a different state.
- 18 U.S. Code 922(a)(3) and 922(a)(5) prohibits private sales across state lines.

- If private sellers want to make a sale across state lines, they must get help from an FFL dealer in the state where the buyer lives.
