For the first time in my life I have bid on a black powder revolver from GunBroker Now I'm wondering if I win if the gun will have to be sent to my local dealer. Who hear knows about that? Thanks.

Depends on your state. Only a few require black powder weapons to be shipped to an FFL.
also depends on where its coming from i some of these guys have to have them in their books.

As said before, look on the listing. If the seller doesn't specify, I suggest contacting them before bidding. Some are goosey, some don't know, and others don't care.

Read the buying and shipping details on the bid page. It usually has the seller's shipping details.
Unless the seller insists. I have seen that here, gun broker, all over. Some are CYA overload and ffl is the only way they will sell even round balls. Per above check the listing.
You have to explain what you mean by "black powder revolver". If it is a black powder cartridge revolver manufactured after 1898, it is still a firearm under GCA 34. Most states don't care about percussion revolvers or antiques made before 1898... but there are a few states run and populated by ignoramuses that think we are all gonna go march on the capital and hang all the politicians from lamp posts if we can actually buy such formidable weaponry.
It depends on the seller. I bought 2 ROAs from 2 different GB sellers. One sent it to my home address the other insisted on shipping to an FFL holder.
