Please Read the Following Carefully:

First Step to Buying a Gun Online – Arrange FFL Transfer

Before placing an order, please contact a local dealer in your area to arrange legal transfer.

• Federal law prohibits shipping guns directly to customers. A face to face transfer with a federally licensed dealer (FFL) is required.
• Be sure to request any local or state laws regarding firearm ownership or possession.
• Make sure you address all fees involved in the transfer process (i.e. FFL, DOJ, registration, licensing, etc.).

Second Step to Buying a Gun Online – Determine Legality

• Some states, cities or districts have fairly strict laws when it comes to firearms.
• Please check with your dealer and the proper authorities to affirm your legal ability to possess the exact type of firearm you plan to order

Third Step to Buying a Gun Online – Determine Eligibility

• When you go to the FFL to complete the transfer of the firearm, you will have to pass the FBI NICS background check to own a firearm.
• Depending on region, additional background checks may be required.
• Remember, disqualifying criminal offenses do not automatically drop over time.
• Even if you legally have a medical marijuana card, the FFL is required by law to deny your transaction.

  • Rifle or Shotgun (Standard Buttstock) - must be 18 or older.
