Default Factory Letter

It has been a while since I requested a Factory Letter, and I know some things have changed. I see they now cost $100, $90, or $75 depending on being a member of organizations. If I am reading correctly, it looks like you can pay by PayPal now too.

My question is two fold. If I pay through PayPal, can I send my completed form in some other way besides snail mail, and if I have to mail it and I pay by PayPal, do I write that somewhere on the form? I just want to make sure Roy doesn't think I neglected to include payment. Thanks.
Larry

You download the request form from either the S&WHF or S&WCA site, fill it out and mail (regular mail) to the address shown. If you pay by PayPal, just indicate it on the form. I don't remember if PayPal provides a transaction number, but if it does, put that on the form too.

How is it PayPal doesn't scream foul, have a hemorrhage and suspend the PP account ?

Why would they?
I’ve been paying my NRA membership, donating to this Forum, and buying hundreds of gun parts FOR YEARS with PayPal.
Relax, it’s the weekend
