What is an FFL?

An "FFL" is a Federal Firearm License. There are currently over 58,000 FFL holders nationwide. FFL holders are commonly gun stores, pawn shops, and retail sporting goods stores. However, there are also many individuals that hold a FFL. All firearms sold to individuals online must be shipped to a local FFL holder, who will then transfer the firearm (via ATF form 4473 and associated background check) to the individual.

What is the average FFL transfer fee?

Although the transfer fee varies widely among the +58,000 FFL holders nationwide, the average fee tends to be around $25. For their exact transfer fee, please contact your chosen FFL directly. Here, at Freedom’s Militia Gun Shop, LLC., our transfer fee is $15.00.

I just received my new gun. It looks used, as if it's been fired. What's up?

Many new firearms are test fired at the factory. You may notice residual powder, rotation marks on revolver cylinders, residual Cosmoline (which sometimes appears to look like rust), etc. All firearms sold as "new" are, in fact, new in box as received from the manufacturer or distributor. Each one includes a new manufacturer’s warranty....no exceptions. Any used, factory refurbished, refurbished pre-owned, or guns in any other condition than new in box will be clearly marked as such on our website.

Unfortunately, we are not able to accept PayPal. PayPal refuses to process payments for firearms or ammunition. Per their website, "We don’t allow PayPal members to buy or sell any kind of firearm, whether it’s in working order or not. The same goes for certain firearm parts and ammunition.

For example, using PayPal, you can’t buy or sell:

Any firearm, including rifles, shotguns, and handguns, whether they’re for sport and recreation, collectibles, or curio or relic firearms.

Firearm parts, including but not limited to receivers and frames, silencers, and kits designed to modify guns so that they fire automatically. High capacity magazines, multi-burst trigger activators, and camouflaging firearm containers are other items in this category. Ammunition, including propellants like gunpowder or blank ammunition; ammunition or cartridge cases; and primers, bullets, or propellant powder designed for any firearm."

What form(s) of payment do you accept?

We accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover, or AMEX. We would love to be able to accept PayPal and Apple Pay but those companies' policies do not allow for purchases involving firearms, ammunition and certain firearms accessories. Because of that, we are restricted from offering those two payment options. Hopefully, the policies at those companies will change in the future.

How do I clean my gun if I shoot corrosive ammo?

The key is to clean it as soon as possible after the use of corrosive ammo.
