What is your process for firearm transfers?

Asked 2 years ago
Impactguns.com has a clear and straightforward process for firearm transfers, which is essential for both buyers and sellers. When initiating a transfer, it is important to ensure that all federal, state, and local regulations are adhered to. Typically, the first step in the transfer process involves finding a licensed Federal Firearms License dealer, often referred to as an FFL dealer, who will facilitate the transfer of the firearm. Impactguns.com can assist in locating an FFL dealer, should one be needed. Once an FFL dealer is selected, the buyer usually needs to complete a Form 4473, which is the Firearms Transaction Record. This form is crucial as it records the details of the transaction and is necessary for compliance with federal regulations. The next phase involves sending the firearm to the designated FFL dealer. The seller generally must ship the firearm in compliance with both federal laws and the policies of the carrier used for shipping. After the transfer is initiated and the firearm arrives at the FFL dealer, the dealer will notify the buyer of its arrival. The buyer will then visit the FFL dealer to complete the required paperwork and undergo background checks, as mandated by law. Once the checks are passed, the buyer can take possession of the firearm. It is advisable to check the current web page of Impactguns.com for specific details on transfer procedures, as policies may vary based on state regulations and updates to federal laws.
