Firearms are a controversial subject these days, but one thing holds true, the sale and distribution of guns are on the rise. More and more, FFL dealers are beginning to sell online. As with most products, theses sales do come with a risk. You must know the rules and regulations before you sell firearms and ammunition online. Our knowledgeable staff is happy to help answer any of your questions about e-commerce and what is required for a licenced FFL to jump into e-commerce. We can help you sell online so that your product can be shipped to another FFL to perform the background check and complete the sale. Well before we get that far, you should seek the advice of a qualified attorney familiar with your industry, and take the time to educate yourself on the rules and the specific legal terms involved.
