technically you can send them to an indivdual but the safest and legal-est way is take it to your local FFL holder, get the person buying it to find an FFL holder that will accept a transfer and get your FFL guy and his FFL guy to talk exchange numbers addresses etc and pay the 15-25 dollar fee to transfer it legally. AFAIK handguns HAVE to be sent next day air. long guns can be sent via ground shipment.
i use to manage a pawnshop and did many FFL transfers for customers who bought odd old rare guns off Gunbrokers.

Are private sales legal in Illinois?
I'd make them come get it. Part of your responsibility is to determine if the purchaser is eligible to own a firearm.
A private individual can not legally ship to anyone except a dealer.
We have an FFL here that only charges $25 for the paperwork. I have heard horror stories about FFL's charging transfer fees plus 10% of sales price.

In a private sale, The onus is on them if they are a felon. It is not your responsibility to find out if they are a felon or not. As a felon, they know they are not allowed to be in possession of a firearm.

One caviot on private sale, it is illegal to sell a pistol to anybody that does not reside in your state, but you can sell a rifle to somebody in another state face to face.
Pistols if not face to face in state sale must go through a FFL and a FFL must be used when shipping either pistols or rifles/shotguns via UPS & pistols MUST go by over night air.
