Requirements

A transferred firearm must meet all requirements of Nevada and federal laws and must be shipped with each of the following:

  • an operational gun lock that works for that firearm (see more below)
  • an appropriate gun case for that firearm
  • a copy of the transferor’s FFL (the transferring FFL will also need a copy of Sin City Munitions’ FFL)

It is the customer’s responsibility to confirm that the firearm you are transferring complies with ALL state and federal laws.  We will help you with this if you contact us, but ultimately you are responsible if you buy a gun and then find out it cannot be transferred.

Firearms must be shipped via UPS, FedEx, or a similar insured, reputable carrier that provides tracking information to the customer. DO NOT SHIP FIREARMS VIA THE U.S. POST OFFICE. It is Sin City Munitions’ policy NOT to accept firearms shipped by USPS.  Any firearm so arriving is subject to a $100 PENALTY and may be returned to the sender.  Please do NOT violate this rule as we are unable to guarantee the security of firearms so shipped.

It is the customer’s responsibility to make ALL arrangements with the transferring FFL including delivery of required documents and payment of shipping costs and to notify Sin City Munitions of any firearm transfer prior to its arrival at our premises.  Notification should be made by e-mail ONLY with the name of the transferee in the subject line to:

[email protected]

A phone call to Sin City Munitions is neither necessary nor sufficient. The email notification must include:

  1. The make / model of the firearm being transferred
  2. ALL contact information (name, address, daytime phone number) for the transferring FFL (including a contact name)
  3. ALL contact information (name, address, daytime phone number) for the customer requesting the transfer

There is no need to call us to double-check your gun’s arrival.  Please rely on the tracking information provided to you by your shipping company.  A support ticket from our system will be opened for you to track this order.  You will receive an email from that system

It is the customer’s responsibility to ascertain whether the firearm has arrived by contacting the shipping company, and to claim the firearm from Sin City Munitions within specified time limits.
