TRansfer of Firearms

 


Guns Inc. can assist you with the process of transferring ownership of a firearm. We can transfer a Massachusetts compliant firearm from one owner to another at our store. We can ship your firearms from our store to another FFL anywhere in the contiguous 48 US states (all state laws apply). We also will receive Massachusetts compliant firearms for you to pick up after completing a background check.

To begin the process:

  • Read our Transfer guidelines below to confirm the firearm you want is compliant.
  • Download our Transfer Form below and follow the instructions.
  • E-mail your completed form to info@guns-inc.com (Attn: TRANSFER for the subject, please!) or fax to 413-731-7630.
  • If the firearm needs to be shipped, an additional fee of $35.00 per handgun or $30.00 per long guns will apply. Insurance is also available at $10 for every $300 of declared value. Additional fees may apply for shipping to destinations that require additional paperwork.
  • If a gun is not compliant and cannot be transferred, all fees will apply to return it.

Long Gun Transfers (Rifle/Shotgun)

What Kinds of Long Guns We Will Transfer:

  • With a valid Massachusetts FID card, you can receive non-Large Capacity long guns. This means a long gun that operates by manual action (pump, lever, bolt, etc.), or is semi-automatic with a fixed magazine that holds less than 10 rounds (rifle) or 5 rounds (shotgun).
  •  With a valid Massachusetts License to Carry Firearms (LTC) card, you can receive both non-Large Capacity and Large Capacity long guns. This means a long gun that is semi-automatic and accepts a detachable magazine. Please note that we will consider any semi-automatic rifle or shotgun that accepts a detachable magazine as Large Capacity, regardless of caliber or magazine capacity.
  • We will not transfer an “Assault Weapon” unless it was manufactured before 9/14/1994 and you have a valid LTC. Proof of manufacture date must be provided for any such rifle/shotgun. The Massachusetts Attorney General considers all AR-15s and AK-47s, as well as numerous other rifles, to be “Assault Weapons”. For more information, please visit http://www.mass.gov/ago/public-safety/awbe.html 
  • Pistol Grip Only Firearms: all other long gun criteria apply, and recipient must be 21 or older and a Massachusetts resident. 
  • We will not transfer : Mossberg Shockwave;  Remington Tac-14, etc.

Receiver/Frame Transfers

Pistol frames must appear on the Massachusetts Approved Firearms Roster. To view the most

current roster, please visit https://www.mass.gov/service-details/view-approved-firearms-rosters.

  •  If a pistol frame does not appear on the roster, we will not conduct the transfer. There are no exceptions to this policy.
  •  Regarding GLOCK frames: we will only transfer GLOCK frames that appear on the Approved Firearms Roster and were manufactured on or before 10/21/1998. Proof of manufacture date must be provided.
  • You must have a valid Massachusetts resident License to Carry Firearms (LTC) to receive a frame or receiver!
  • We will not transfer an “Assault Weapon” receiver unless it was manufactured before 9/14/1994 and you have a valid LTC. Proof of manufacture date must be provided for any such receiver. The Massachusetts Attorney General considers all AR-15 receivers to be “Assault Weapons”. For more information, please visit http://www.mass.gov/ago/public-safety/awbe.html

Magazines

Any large capacity feeding devices must have been manufactured prior to 9/14/1994. If the

magazine is determined to be compliant, you will need a valid Massachusetts License to Carry Class A to receive it. However, if we have reason to believe the device in question was

manufactured after this date, it will not be transferred to you. We do not provide any form of compensation for such instances.

NFA
