FFL Policy

IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ BEFORE ORDERING

All firearm sales are subject to Federal Firearms License (FFL) transfer regulations and state-specific laws. Customers must comply with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations before purchasing firearms, receivers, or other FFL-required items from Adamsonstore.com.

FFL Transfer Requirements

• All firearms must be shipped to an FFL dealer in your state of residence.
• We do NOT ship firearms to P.O. Boxes.
• All FFL orders require an adult signature upon delivery.
• Customers are responsible for ensuring that the firearm they purchase is legal in their state.
• It is the customer’s responsibility to confirm their FFL dealer will accept the transfer. If your selected FFL refuses the transfer, the return shipping cost and a restocking fee will apply.

Providing Your FFL Information

If your order includes an FFL item (pistol, rifle, shotgun, lower receiver, or frame), we must receive a valid copy of your chosen FFL’s license before shipment.

How to Provide FFL Information

• If you entered the FFL license number at checkout and we already have their information, no further action is required.
• If you provided an FFL dealer’s name or address, we will attempt to locate them in our database.
• If we do not have their license on file, you or your dealer must email a copy of the FFL to [Insert Email], referencing your order number.

📌 Tip: To avoid delays, we recommend contacting your chosen FFL dealer before placing your order and requesting they send us their FFL license.

FFL Processing & Shipping Time

• Orders containing FFL items take longer to process than standard orders.
• Once we receive and verify your FFL information, FFL orders typically ship within 1-2 business days.
• Orders are shipped only to the premise address listed on the FFL license.

🚨 Important: All FFL licenses will be validated through FFL EZ Check. The license must match exactly to avoid delays or order cancellation.

State-Specific FFL Restrictions

Certain states have additional restrictions on firearm sales and transfers. Customers must be aware of their state’s laws before ordering.

• California:

  • Only California-compliant firearms will be shipped.
  • Gen 3 Glock pistols are the only Glock models allowed unless the buyer is law enforcement.
  • The California DOJ requires a Firearms Shipment Verification (CL number) for every firearm transfer. Your FFL must provide this information when submitting their license.

• Illinois, New York, and New Jersey:

  • A state-issued Firearm Identification Card (FOID or FID) is required for all firearm and ammunition purchases.
  • No sales of non-compliant AR/AK rifles or high-capacity magazines.

• Connecticut & Massachusetts:

  • No sales of non-compliant handguns, rifles, or magazines exceeding legal capacity limits.

• Washington D.C. & Massachusetts:

  • No firearm sales.

For a complete list of state-specific restrictions, refer to our Shipping Restrictions by State page.

Order Cancellations & Returns for FFL Items

• All firearm sales are final. We do not accept returns on firearms or serialized items.
• If an FFL item is returned because the buyer fails to pass the background check, refuses the transfer, or orders a non-compliant firearm, a 20% restocking fee and return shipping charges will apply.
• Orders cannot be canceled once shipped.

🚨 Customers are responsible for ensuring their order is legal before completing the purchase. If you have questions, consult your local FFL dealer or a legal expert.

NFA & High-Capacity Magazine Compliance

• All NFA rules apply for suppressors, short-barreled rifles, and other regulated firearms. Ensure you follow the required NFA process before ordering.
• We DO NOT ship high-capacity magazines to states with magazine capacity restrictions. We will not offer replacements or refunds for banned magazines.
• Customers ordering magazines over their state’s legal limit will have their order canceled.

Military Exemptions for Firearm Transfers

• Military personnel stationed in a state other than their legal residence may purchase firearms across state lines.
• A copy of your Military ID and PCS Orders must be provided to complete the transfer.
• Contact your receiving FFL dealer to confirm additional state-specific requirements.
