Firearm Transfers
INBOUND TRANSFERS
When a customer requests an “inbound transfer” to Redleg Firearms, it means that the customer has purchased a firearm elsewhere and wants their purchase shipped to Redleg Firearms. Redleg Firearms would then “receive” the transfer, log the firearm, process the required federal paperwork, and ensure that the buyer meets federal and state requirements before releasing the firearm to the buyer.
- Ensure that you meet all federal and state requirements for your purchase. For example, Oklahoma residency as proven with a valid non-expired government issued identification, such as an Oklahoma ID, Oklahoma DL, or Oklahoma LTC, is required for all handgun transfers (and receiver transfers) for those 21+. 18+ individuals qualify for long gun transfers. See ATF requirements.
- Purchase your firearm online.
- Communicate with the seller that you desire for your purchase to be sent to Redleg Firearms.
- Send a message to the seller asking them to read Redleg Firearms' Transfer Information and our Store Policies.
- Make sure that the seller will ship using either FedEx, UPS or USPS.
- The seller will contact Redleg Firearms and we will exchange FFL information with the seller. Redleg Firearms accepts transfers from other FFLs only – not from private citizens without a FFL.
- The seller will provide your contact information to Redleg Firearms.
- We will contact you after we receive and process the transfer.
*Please allow about a business day for us to process your transfer.
Just because you receive a shipping notification that your transfer has been delivered does not mean that your transfer is ready to pick up. In addition to multiple transfers, we receive daily replenishment inventory that also has to be checked in. Please be patient.
Once your firearm has arrived and you have been notified:
- Come to Redleg Firearms to do the Federal 4473 paperwork and NICS background check.
- Bring valid non-expired government issued identification that has a picture and a current residence address. We cannot accept government issued IDs that list a PO Box for the address. Tribal IDs are also not an accepted form of identification by ATF at this time.
- The individual listed as the buyer must be the same person filling out the Federal 4473 paperwork in order to prevent a straw purchase.
OUTBOUND TRANSFERS
When a customer requests an "outbound transfer" from Redleg Firearms, it means that the customer wants their firearm shipped from Redleg Firearms to a different FFL. Before any outbound transfer can begin, Redleg Firearms must have the chosen destination FFL on file. It is the customer's responsibility to place the receiving FFL in contact with Redleg Firearms in order for the two FFLs to exchange license information.
Note: The firearm that you are sending must be legal in the state where the firearm will be sent. (For example, some states or jurisdictions do not allow firearms with a magazine capacity exceeding 10 rounds. This means that Redleg Firearms cannot ship an AR rifle with a 30-round magazine to California; Redleg Firearms cannot send a pistol with a 17-Round magazine to Colorado for example.) Redleg Firearms cannot send a firearm to another state when that firearm violates that particular state’s law.
- Contact Redleg Firearms beforehand to provide the contact information (email address, phone number) of the receiving FFL. Redleg Firearms transfers firearms to those individuals or businesses in possession of a valid FFL. We do not ship firearms to private citizens without them having a FFL. Redleg Firearms and the receiving FFL will need to exchange licenses prior to shipment.
- Bring your boxed UNLOADED firearm(s) to our store in an appropriate UNSEALED shipping container.
- Do not expect us to have empty shipping boxes on site as we have limited space.
- We need to record the firearm serial #, the caliber, the barrel length, type of firearm, manufacturer, manufacturer part #, and UPC.
- You need to bring your valid non-expired government issued identification with you.
- Pay the shipping fee(s). Redleg Firearms is not responsible for damage resulting from shipping.
- We will send an email to both you and the receiving FFL with tracking numbers provided to us by the shipper.
We reserve the right to adjust shipping fees in light of the shipping weight, e.g., it will cost more to ship a 100# firearm than it will to ship a 5# firearm.
Ammo cannot be shipped in same container as firearms.

NFA transfers are for suppressors, short-barreled rifles, and short-barreled shotguns. NFA transfers will require ATF Form 4 to be completed and will usually take an additional 10-12 months to process by paper, and an average of 180 days when filing through ATF eForms. Dates are dependent on current ATF processing times and are ever-changing.
The following items are NFA-regulated items that require additional processing in order to complete the purchase:
- Suppressors
- All fully automatic and select-fire firearms
- Machine guns and parts to convert semi-auto firearms into machine guns
- Short-barreled rifles
- Short-barreled shotguns
Transfers of NFA items must be documented by the appropriate ATF forms.
- Dealer to dealer transfers are documented by ATF Form 5320.3 (also known as Form 3). These may be faxed to ATF and do not require a $200.00 transfer tax.
- Individual to dealer, dealer to individual or individual to individual transfers must be documented by ATF Form 5320.4 (also known as Form 4). Transfers involving individuals require the $200.00 transfer tax to be paid (except for transfers of NFA items to a decedent’s heirs, which is tax free).
