Hmm, it's simple.

You bring it to your FFL, and they ship it to the buyer's FFL.
Yea, I have sold this way before. There are auction sites or can sell directly to a buyer. Fees to send the gun and fees at other end to take possession.

That is why, if I can find a local buyer or someone that will drive here, there is just one transfer fee at my local FFL. Plus the buyer has to do a background check.

I was thinking out-of-state private sales. Does your state require an FFL to be involved for a private face-to-face sale?

There is also Armslist, which you'd have to pay a small fee to list. The secret trick is to include your contact info, like a burner email, in the post text. That way folks who browse without paying for accounts can reach you directly. Or, try joining one of the big Glock forums, and selling through those.

I used to buy and sell on Gun Broker all the time. I am just gonna stick to selling local. I have 2 10 round mags, 2 15 round mags with sleeves to cover the extended part. I speed loader, original case, 100 rounds of ammo and has never been fired.

Probably the smartest route nowadays, face to face in state sales aren't an issue for private deals , if youre buying contact me I have a link you can check on "items" youre looking at to make sure they are clean. We had to do it when i had my 01& 03 ffl.. best of luck .

For home defense shooting after woken from a sleep, the Shockwave fits the bill.
