Transfers

We’ve streamlined our transfer process to be straightforward, but there are a few important things to know to avoid delays and extra fees. Please take a moment to review our policy and fees below.

For Our Valued Customers:

To ensure a hassle-free transfer, please:

• Start with an FFL: We prefer shipments from another licensed dealer. If your item comes from a non-FFL holder (a private individual), a $25 surcharge will apply.
• Fill Out Our Transfer Form FIRST: This is crucial! You must complete our electronic Transfer Form before your firearm ships to us. Missing this step will result in a $25 surcharge.
• One Form, One Item: Please submit a separate form for each item you’re having transferred.
• FFL Info Requests: For your security, we only provide our FFL information directly to the shipping FFL. They need to contact us to request it.

For Transferring FFLs:

To help us process your transfer efficiently:

• Contact Us for Our FFL: As per federal law and our policy, the transferring FFL must contact us to request our FFL before shipping any firearms.
• We Verify: We confirm all FFLs with the FBI FFL EzCheck system before sharing our information.
• Include Proper Documentation: Please include a copy of your FFL along with a detailed invoice. The invoice should clearly list the customer’s name, phone number, order number, and firearm details (make, model, serial number, and purchase date).
• Questions? Feel free to email us at redghost@redghostgunshop.com.

Our Transfer Fees: Keeping It Clear

Our goal is transparency. Our fees are straightforward, with clear surcharges for situations that require extra processing time. Please note that these fees and surcharges can stack.

• Standard Firearm Transfer: Just $25 per firearm.
• NFA Item Transfer: $75 per NFA item, plus a $25 fee for SilencerShop to process your Form 4.

Additional Surcharges (each adds $25):

• If you order items without checking availability with us first.
• For shipments received without a completed transfer form request.
• For items received from a non-FFL holder.
• For items received that we can easily order directly for you.
• For items received that we already have in stock.
• For items received from large online retailers like “Bud’s Gun Shop” and “Cheaper Than Dirt.” (While we’ll still do the transfer, we prefer to order directly for you. These large retailers often rely on small shops like ours to handle the hard work, keeping most of the profit. However, if we genuinely can’t get the item for you, we’ll waive this specific surcharge.)

Please Note: Red Ghost Gun Shop reserves the right to change or modify this fee schedule at our sole discretion. Fees updated: May 13, 2020.
