Transfers

We offer transfer services for firearms

Our transfer fee is $45. If you get more than one firearm transferred at once, it is $45 for the first and
$10 for each additional firearm on the same background check.

IMPORTANT: Delivery of your firearm at our location does NOT mean that it is ready for transfer.
We need time to process every firearm that comes into the store. Your firearm will only be available for transfer after we contact you to let you know it is ready. If you show up to the shop to begin the transfer process before we contact you to let you know your firearm is ready, you will not be able to start the transfer process.

Please be patient and wait until we contact you before coming to transfer your firearm.

Here is the process of transferring a firearm:

  • After you complete your transaction online, there is nothing additional that needs to be done on your end. You do not need to call us and let us know your item(s) is coming unless something went wrong or you have a special circumstance for pick-up that we need to be aware of.
  • The online store or other dealer you purchased from will ship your firearm along with your contact information to us.
  • Once it gets delivered to the shop, we’ll unpack it, process it and call you to notify you that it is ready for transfer. Please note that the physical delivery of your firearm does NOT mean that it is ready for transfer. Your firearm is only ready for transfer after we contact you and notify you that it is ready.
  • After we contact you, come pick up your firearm as soon as possible. Please bring your photo ID and proof of Florida residency. For most, a Florida Driver’s License satisfies both.
  • If you do not have a Florida Driver’s License, you’ll need to bring:
    • Photo ID like a State issued ID from another state (no further ID required if information is current) or a US Passport (government proof of address required).
    • Proof of Florida Residency. Examples include Florida Vehicle Registration, Florida Voter Registration or a Florida Tax Bill. Utility bills, junk mail, phone bills and personal letters are NOT acceptable as proof of residency. If you need more examples of proof of residency, feel free to call and ask.
  • When you come to pick up your firearm, we will provide you with a form 4473 (Firearms Transaction Record) to fill out. The rightful owner of the firearm MUST be the one to fill out the form in person in our shop. This paperwork cannot be done ahead of time.
  • We will verify the form has been filled out correctly and then submit a background check on- line. Once the background check has been approved and the 5-day wait has been satisfied (or waived with a Florida Concealed Weapon Permit or other legal concession), payment for the transfer will be made.

IMPORTANT – ABANDONED PROPERTY POLICY FOR FIREARMS PURCHASES, FIREARMS TRANSFERS:

  • Once notified that the firearm is completed or has been received in the store you, the customer, have 30 days to pick up the product.

  • AFTER 30 days you, the customer, will be assessed a $12/day storage fee until the firearm is picked up or the value of the firearm or cost of labor has been collected.

  • Once storage fees exceed the cost of labor and/or value of the firearm, the firearm will be considered abandoned and will be put on the floor for resale.

  • It Is YOUR responsibility to be a responsible firearms owner. Therefore, multiple attempts will not be made for pick up. This includes any and/all receivers, any and/all completed rifles, pistols.

  • This is in effect and enforced dated January 2019 to present date. No excuses.
