Firearm Purchasing FAQ

1. What is an FFL?
An FFL is a Federal Firearm License.  Licensed FFL holders are typically gun stores, pawn shops, and retail sporting goods stores. All firearms sold to individuals online must be shipped to a local licensed FFL holder who can transfer the firearm (via ATF form 4473 and associated background check) to the individual.

2. How do I arrange to have a local FFL handle my transfer?
You can use a preferred local licensed local FFL holder and have them simply having them email us a copy of their FFL to support@freedommunitions.com. Please communicate with your chosen FFL prior to completing your purchase with us. You will want to ask for their approval of the transfer as well as their transfer fee.
