One option I have is for my local dealer to mail a handgun via USPS to a gunsmith for a trigger job. Smith told me the handgun has to be returned to the dealer who mailed it to them.
Is my dealer required to do another “transfer” or can they just hand me my handgun and call it good?
If your FFL entered it into his book (which he is supposed to) then yes.
Your dealer can just hand it to you.
His bound book will show that he received it from you, sent to to the smith, received it back from the smith, then gave it back to you.

You do not need to go through an FFL to send your gun to a gunsmith
The dealer must make another entry (acquisition/disposition) in his bound book which is required by BATF he cannot simply "hand the gun back to you". Depending on the dealer he may or may not charge you for the second transfer.

You do if you wish to use USPS, which is what he wishes to do.

I didn’t ask that question.

Don’t know about UPS yet, but Fed Ex will only take firearms from an FFL.
https://www.fedex.com/en-us/shipping/how-to-ship-firearms.htmlNonlicensees are prohibited from shipping firearms with FedEx.
You can not mail a hand gun for any reason usps!

Your full of sh*t. FFL dealers can mail them via USPS.
Besides, I didn’t ask that question.
I have sent handguns directly to Ahlman's and they sent them directly back without any FFL involvement.
Ignorant azz can’t read can you. Doesn’t have to be fuggin law. Company rule just like the jab.
Only customers holding a Federal Firearms License (FFL) and federal, state, or local government agencies may ship firearms with FedEx. Customers holding an FFL must enter into an approved FedEx Firearms Shipping Compliance Agreement before shipping any firearms with FedEx. Also, you must be an approved firearm shipper with a signed contract on file with FedEx. For more information, contact your FedEx account executive.
Just as a heads up to anyone else: an ffl can only use usps to ship firearms to other licensees. We can't use usps to ship back to a customer.
