FFL TRANSFER PROCESS

When purchasing a firearm from another dealer, the selling dealer will need a copy of our FFL before your firearm can be shipped.  It is your responsibility to provide us with either an email address (preferred) or a fax number of the seller/dealer in order for us to forward our FFL to them.  Some dealers already have our FFL on file.

When the firearm arrives at VAM Munitions, we will in-process it, call you to let you know it arrived, and lock it up until you can come pick it up.

When picking up your firearm, you must provide proof of the serial number on an invoice from the seller. We often get multiple firearms from a single seller and are not given the customer name that is applied to the serial number.

It is the buyer’s responsibility to make sure the seller received the FFL, payment, and all information necessary for the seller to ship the firearm.

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 If you need assistance, please let us know and we will be happy to help.

We will verify the form has been filled out correctly and then submit a background check online. Once the background check has been approved and the 5-day wait has been satisfied (or waived), payment of the transfer fee is provided, and then may leave with the firearm.
