FIREARM AND NFA ITEMS TRANSFERS

We know you can't wait to get your new firearm, but please wait until you receive a message from us telling you that it is ready to be picked up before scheduling an appointment. We are still seeing shipping delays and errors that show it as delivered when it hasn't been. Appointments that are scheduled for pick up that don't have a corresponding firearm are automatically canceled by our system.

Bought a firearm from someone out of state, or online? Need to send one to someone in another state? Now what? Freedom Forge Armory can handle the transfer for you. 

For Virginia residents the "Universal Background Check Law" goes into effect on 1 July 2020. 

This law prohibits, with limited exceptions, a private seller from selling a firearm for money, goods or services or anything else of value unless he has obtained verification from a licensed dealer in firearms that information on the prospective purchaser has been submitted for a criminal history record information check and that a determination has been received from the Department of State Police that the prospective purchaser is not prohibited under state or federal law from possessing a firearm.

All firearms and NFA items transfers are handled by appointment for your convenience. Please use our appointment scheduling service for pick up's. Please coordinate with us before having a firearm or NFA item shipped to us. If you have an item that needs to be shipped to another FFL we can handle that too.
