We’re excited that you’ve chosen to make your first online purchase of a firearm with us here at Shoot Straight! It is a relatively easy process, but it can be confusing for first time shoppers. We created this brief guide to help you complete your online purchase hassle-free. All local, state, and federal laws apply.
STEP 1 – Arrange the transfer with an FFL dealer
Your FFL dealer is the gun shop of your choosing that you want your order shipped to. FFL stands for Federal Firearm License, and by federal law we cannot ship firearms to any place other than a shop holding a valid FFL. Shoot Straight does not ship to home based FFLs under any circumstance. Before you make an online purchase, you should:
- Contact the FFL dealer to inform them that you would like to have a firearm transferred to them from Shoot Straight.
- Provide the FFL dealer with our contact information so they can send a copy of their FFL to us. Our contact info is below:
- Phone: 321-396-3108
- Email: sales@shoot-straight.com
- Ask about their transfer fee. Most FFL dealers charge a fee for incoming transfers that is paid at pick up.
— Local Pickup —
Shoot Straight offers a local pickup option where you can choose to have your order shipped to one of our Florida locations. We do not charge a transfer fee or shipping fee for our local pickup option. If you would like to use local pickup, ensure that you click select the option “CLICK HERE TO PICKUP THIS ITEM” in your shopping cart or on the checkout screen.

STEP 3 – Pick up your firearm from the FFL dealer
Once your order arrives at your chosen FFL dealer, call them to find out when you can pick up your order. If you chose the Local Pickup option, a Shoot Straight employee will call you when your order is received and ready for pickup. Any FFL dealer will have you complete a Form 4473 and will submit a background check through NICS. Bring these items with you to ensure the background check is a smooth process:
- A valid state driver’s license or government ID
- A valid Concealed Carry Permit (if applicable)
Check your local and state laws for more information on purchasing a firearm.
