Firearm Transfers

Vance Outdoors offers FFL transfer services for firearms purchased online or from out-of-state dealers. Our FFL transfer fee is $50 per firearm* ($125 for NFA items), and we strive to make the process as smooth and hassle-free as possible.

Once your firearm has arrived at our store, we will promptly contact you to schedule a pick-up time that works for you. Our knowledgeable staff is also available to answer any questions you may have regarding the transfer process.

Please Note: For NFA transfers, we are only able to accept suppressors and short barreled shotguns. We do not accept transfers for short barreled rifles or machine guns. Additionally, we do not accept transfer of firearms without a serial number. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Read below for step-by-step instructions on how to have a firearm transferred to a Vance Outdoors location.

How to have a firearm transferred to Vance Outdoors from another dealer:

  1. Find the firearm you are wanting to have transferred to Vance Outdoors.
  2. Have your dealer contact us for a copy of our FFL. We cannot accept transfers from non-FFL dealers. All FFLs can be sent to [email protected]. Please be sure that your order number is referenced.
  3. Once your firearm is shipped to Vance Outdoors, please allow 24-48 hours for inventory processing. You will receive a call when your order is ready at our store. If you have not received a phone call from us pertaining to your firearm transfer, then your order is not ready for pickup.

* The $50 transfer fee applies to the first firearm being transferred. If multiple firearms are being transferred, there will be an additional $25 assessed per firearm.
