1. First and foremost, please review the Virginia State Police requirements on purchasing a firearm in this state and confirm you are eligible to possess a firearm by clicking on this link: VSP Eligibility Information  Be aware that we can only transfer a firearm to a VIRGINIA RESIDENT. The only exception to this is if you are active duty military and you are stationed in Virginia at a Permanent Duty Station. To go this route, you must produce a copy of your orders that place you in Virginia and they must not have exceeded their stated rotation date. If your orders have expired but you are still operating in Virginia, you must in addition provide a letter of extension on letterhead from your command. You must also provide your military credentials and your home state Driver's License or Identification card regardless of you're orders being expired or not.

2. Note that we ONLY accept incoming FFL Transfers from established FFL Businesses, we do NOT accept transfers from personal FFL holders, "Table top FFL Dealers", or individual C&R FFL Holders. Also note that we do not accept transfers from vendors and dealers who drop ship firearms. If you are unsure if the sender that you are receiving the firearm from falls into any of these categories please don't hesitate to give us a call and verify.
