FFL Transfer Policy

Last updated: November 13, 2026

Federal law requires firearms sold online to be shipped to a federally licensed firearms dealer (FFL), who completes the transfer to you. Here is how it works at GunPro.

How Buying a Firearm Works

  1. Pick your dealer before you order. Choose a licensed dealer near you, and call them to confirm that they accept transfers from online retailers and to ask about their transfer fee. Transfer fees are set by your dealer, paid to your dealer, and not refunded by GunPro.
  2. Select the dealer at checkout. Use the FFL search at checkout to choose your dealer. If your dealer’s license is not already on file with us, we will ask your dealer for a copy, or you can have them email it to sales@gunpro.com.
  3. We verify the license and ship. Your firearm ships after we verify a valid license. We ship firearms only to licensed dealers, never to a home address, and we do not offer local pickup.
  4. Inspect, then complete the transfer. When your dealer receives the firearm, bring a valid government-issued photo ID, inspect the firearm with the dealer, complete ATF Form 4473, and pass the required background check.

Inspect Before You Accept: Firearm Sales Are Final After Transfer

Before you sign Form 4473, confirm that it is the exact item you ordered, with no damage, defects, or missing parts. If there is any problem, do not complete the transfer. Contact us at 678-720-5123 or sales@gunpro.com, and we will arrange its return and send you a replacement or a full refund. Once the transfer is complete, the sale is final and the firearm cannot be returned. Defects found after transfer are handled through the manufacturer’s warranty.

Eligibility Requirements

  • You must be at least 21 years old to buy a handgun, frame, or receiver, and at least 18 to buy a rifle or shotgun. If your state requires an older age, that age applies.
  • Under federal law, handguns may be transferred only to a resident of the state where the dealer is located. Long guns may be transferred out of state only where both federal law and the law of your state allow it.
  • You must meet all state and local requirements, such as permits, waiting periods, safety certificates, and approved-handgun rosters. Some firearms cannot be shipped to some states.
  • Your dealer has the final say on whether to accept a transfer and may refuse it for any lawful reason.

Dealer License Deadline

Firearm orders are held until we receive a valid copy of your dealer’s license. If we cannot get a license within 15 days of your order, the order will be cancelled and refunded, minus a 15% restocking fee (minimum $15).

If the Transfer Cannot Be Completed

If your dealer refuses the shipment, your background check is denied or not resolved within the dealer’s holding period, or you decide not to accept a firearm that has no problem, the dealer must ship it back to us. You can ask us to reship to a different eligible dealer at your cost. Otherwise, your refund will be reduced by a 15% restocking fee and by the original and return shipping costs. FFL transfer fees are not refunded by GunPro.

Shipping Firearms and Ammunition

Firearms and ammunition ship in separate packages. Ammunition ordered with a firearm will arrive separately and is covered by our Shipping Policy.
