SHIPPING A FIREARM – FFL’S AND TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP

penngunshop.com will ONLY transfer ownership of a firearm to individuals or agencies in possession of a valid Federal Firearms License (FFL). This means we cannot ship directly to you unless you are an FFL holder.

If you do not hold a valid FFL, penngunshop.com will transfer your purchased firearm to your choice of a licensed gun dealer in your state.

It is your responsibility:

  • to contact the FFL if they’re a non preferred dealer. penngunshop.com preferred dealers will take any/all of our shipments without prior contact.
  • to complete all required paperwork when you pick up your purchase from your local dealer

Be aware that it is customary for your local dealer to charge a transfer fee at the time you pick up your purchase. This transfer fee is strictly between you and your local dealer. Please check with your local dealer concerning their policies. You do not pay penngunshop.com the transfer fee.

The buyer is responsible for contacting their transferring FFL to request they send a copy of their FFL to us. If you are using a Penns Preferred FFL dealer, we will already have the FFL on file.
