Do I need a background check to buy a gun online?
Yes. Even when purchasing online, a background check is required at the FFL dealer where you pick up your firearm (unless you have a permit that exempts you in your state). The FFL dealer will conduct the check before handing over the gun.
Can I have a gun shipped directly to my house?
No, firearms cannot be shipped directly to your home. They must be sent to a licensed FFL dealer, where you will complete the legal transfer process. However, ammo and accessories can be shipped directly to your residence in most states.
How do I choose an FFL dealer for my transfer?
Many online gun stores allow you to select an FFL dealer during checkout. If not, you’ll need to find a local gun shop or licensed dealer willing to handle the transfer and provide their information to the seller.
