Transferring a Firearm to Fin Feather Fur
- Complete the purchase of your firearm. If you purchase a firearm from another retailer, they will ask for a copy of our FFL and we will need some information from you.
- Set up the transfer - Please contact the Fin Feather Fur location where you wish to pick up your firearm. Upon request we can mail, email, or fax a copy of our license to the shipping FFL. Once they have received our FFL, they can ship your firearm.
- The shipping FFL will need to include 2 items with the firearm. First, we will need a copy of their FFL or driver’s license (if they do not have an FFL). Second, we’ll need your name and contact information. Please ask the shipping FFL to include these in the box with your firearm.
- Once we receive your firearm, we must log it into our records. After the firearm has been processed into our system, we will call you to let you know that the firearm is ready to be picked up. Please understand this process will take overnight to update. If you are tracking your package and it shows delivered do not assume it is immediately ready to be picked up.
- You will be required to fill out a 4473 and undergo a background check. This process must be done by you. Please be sure to bring a valid Ohio ID with proof of current residence. If you have any questions, please contact the store.
