The Feds only get involved when it crosses state lines or is a NFA item.
You might want to check local laws as well.

I have purchased a couple in state and all I did was scan and email a copy of my DL and CCW permit and they shipped them to my door.

As others have indicated, it's the Commerce Clause of the Constitution that gives Feds power over interstate transactions (shipments)... I'm still kinda surprised that a shipping company would do an intrastate shipment, however... Those folks normally have company policy that dictates their behavior. More of a One-Policy-Fits-All arrangement, so they require FFL-FFL transfer all the time. So if you are able to get a shipping company to ship it for you, then good for you!!!

I should add my purchases were from individuals and not dealers, so no background check was required.

That's what I thought. Thanks for the comments.
