Are you buying or selling?

Why don't you (or him) just mail the firearm to a FFL local to him (you)?

You cannot legally transfer a firearm to a resident of another state without going through an FFL. If it's a handgun, that FFL must be in the buyer's state.

You ship your rifle to his FFL, he ships his rifle to yours.

"FTF" in common usage means NO FFL is involved in the transaction. If they choose to use a dealer for the transaction he will log it into his books, the buyer completes a 4473/NICS and logs it out to the buyer.

<----FFL who does transfers every week when the buyer or seller is too nervous to meet the other party at Walmart.

Will work for a long gun.  Handguns can only be acquired in your own state of residence. Bordering states have no standing under federal law any longer.

I would call and check with what ever dealers you are thinking about doing this with beforehand to explain what you are wanting and to agree on the cost of the transfers.
