HOW TO PURCHASE FIREARMS

If we are to transfer the firearm, please put the Receiving Dealer’s/FFL Licensed Individual’s contact info into the “Ship To Address”. That will help speed the process up. If you do not know which dealer to send your firearm to, then please use this Dealer Locator

To Purchase Firearms Online
You must be at least 18 years old to purchase long guns, and at least 21 years old to purchase handguns.
All firearms will be shipped to a dealer with a valid and current FFL.
Here is an easy check list of actions that you must take to complete any firearms purchase:
- Verify that the firearm you wish to purchase from Wright Arms meets the laws of your state, county, or city.
You may need to contact your local FFL dealer to verify the laws.
- Find an FFL holder near you that will accept the transfer of the firearm for you. This can be your local Gun Shop, Pawn Shop, Gun Range or any other retail location that holds a current FFL and will help you with your transaction
Here is a link to some FFL dealers in your area. Remember to ask whether they are a brick and mortar retail store, because we do not ship to individuals with FFL’s.
- Contact your FFL and tell them you would like to transfer a firearm from Wright Arms. The transfer of the firearm is between you and the FFL holder. You must abide by their procedures especially when it comes to following Federal, State and Local laws.
You must confirm the transfer with your local FFL holder. They will most likely charge a transfer fee so please ask them how much they charge.
- Once your FFL holder receives your firearm, you will need to pick it up. Upon arrival at your FFL holder, inspect your firearm to make certain that everything is acceptable before filling out the necessary paperwork.
- If you have questions about the FFL swap process, or about the firearm specifically, please contact Web Sales at 956-752-1300, or Email Us
