Those who purchase firearms in this illegal manner are subject to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

All orders will be shipped along with an Order Receipt listing the item, price & serial number.

Enter your shipping address first.

A Firearm or Receiver will not ship to the shipping address that you have entered unless it is an authorized FFL transfer dealer that you have selected to receive your firearm.

If you buy a non-firearm item the order will ship to your home and does not need to ship to a gun dealer, you do not have to choose FFL dealer.

If you buy a Firearm, we have a dealer list for you to choose from. You are responsible for contacting the dealer and discussing the transfer BEFORE placing the order! Ask them to fax or email a copy of their FFL license with your NAME & ORDER NUMBER to Fax# (866) 668-1907 or FFL@thetopguns.com

If you put both firearm and non-firearm into the shopping cart, at our discretion we may split the order and ship the legal non-firearm part or accessory to your home address (Billing Address) and the firearm part we will ship to the FFL dealer you choose.
