Person to Person Firearm Transfers - $30
A $30 per firearm fee is required to perform a background check (regardless of outcome). Both parties must be present to perform the transfer. If the purchaser is delayed, the owner of the firearm will keep possession of the firearm Once the intended purchaser has received a “proceed” status, both parties must return in-store (X-Ring Supply) to complete the transfer. The transfer fee is mandatory regardless of outcome of background check. If the buyer is denied, an additional $100 denial fee is due.
Dealer to Dealer Transfer - $50
If we’re receiving a transfer on your behalf from another FFL, the fee is $50 for the first firearm and $35 for each additional firearm.
When a firearm is transferred to our store, the buyer is responsible for payment of the transfer fee. If the transfer cannot be completed (whether of federal denial, a firearm is not Delaware compliant, etc), the buyer is still responsible to pay the transfer fee. If you send a firearm that is not state compliant, you will be required to pay the transfer fee before we send it back to the seller.
We do ship firearms for individuals, see our Firearm Shipping page for details.
Firearm Transfers We Will And Will Not Accept
The firearm must be Delaware Compliant, must be of reasonable quality, and MUST BE FOR YOU.
It must be Delaware Compliant
All transfers must be compliant with the state laws of Delaware. If it does not meet Delaware state law compliance we are required by current law to refuse the transfer. We do not modify firearms to comply with Delaware State Law. The firearm must arrive in compliant format.
We do not accept pistols with threaded barrels or completed lower receivers.
We do not accept firearms banned under Delaware's "Assault Weapon Ban" - We have two blog posts to help explain this in detail: our HB450 Flowchart post is the best place to start, then check out our favorite Delaware Complaint Rifles post for more information.
We do accept pistol frames (Glock frames, PSA Daggers etc)
We do accept stripped lowers but require purchase of a compliance devise at the time of purchase (Bullet Button, Comp Mag, Mag lock)
We do accept firearms that come with magazines over 17 rounds. If you have a Delaware issued Concealed Carry permit, briefly show it to us at pickup and we will complete the transfer. If you do not have a valid Delaware issued Concealed Carry permit, we will still complete the firearm transfer, but will not transfer the magazine(s) over 17 rounds. We do not pin or modify magazines.
The Firearm must be of reasonable quality.
No New Pistols that retail for $300 or less, excluding Rimfire.
No HiPoint, Taurus or SCCY or similar, new or used.
We do not accept HiPoint, Taurus, SCCY or other brands of similar price point as they have a disproportionately high failure rate. If you’re not sure, please ask using the transfer form before you send it. If sent, we will refuse the transfer and hold the item until the transfer fee has been paid, then we will send it back to the original seller.
DO NOT PURCHASE A FIREARM FOR SOMEONE ELSE.
WE WILL REFUSE THE TRANSFER.
PURCHASING A FIREARM FOR SOMEONE ELSE IS CONSIDERED A “STRAW PURCHASE”, WHICH IS A FELONY PUNISHABLE UP TO 10 YEARS IN JAIL.
