Transfers Information

FFL Transfers at Gallenson’s Guns

Bought a firearm online or from an out-of-state seller? Ship it to us. Gallenson’s Guns & Ammo has been Salt Lake City’s downtown gun shop since 1916, and we handle transfers every day.

Transfer Fees

• Firearms: $30 per serialized item
• NFA items (suppressors, SBRs, etc.): $30 per serialized item for NFA items coming from anywhere other than Silencer Shop
• Silencer Shop purchases: no transfer fee — Silencer Shop is the only online retailer we receive and process at no charge

Please note: for NFA items, the $30 transfer fee must be paid before we start any paperwork to process your Form 4.

Suppressors, SBRs & SBSs — October 2026 Update

As of October 9, 2026, ATF no longer requires NFA registration or a Form 4 to transfer a suppressor, short-barreled rifle or short-barreled shotgun. These now transfer on a Form 4473 with a background check, the same as any other firearm, and our transfer fee is $30 per serialized item.

Still want it on a Form 4? We will process an incoming suppressor, SBR or SBS on a Form 4 if you would rather have it registered. Just let us know when you send it in.

Shipping may run slow for a while. The industry is still switching over to the new structure, so some incoming items are taking longer than usual to leave the seller. We will keep you posted on anything of yours in transit.

Questions on any of this? Call 801-769-6969 or email [email protected].

How It Works

1. Buy your firearm from any online retailer, auction site, or out-of-state seller.
2. Have the seller send it to our FFL. If the sending dealer needs a copy of our FFL and/or SOT, have them email us at [email protected] and we will provide everything they need to ship. We only provide our FFL/SOT to other FFL holders — no exceptions.
3. We will let you know when it’s ready. When your item is ready for pickup, we will text or email you using the contact info provided.
4. Pick it up. Bring a valid government-issued photo ID. You will fill out the ATF Form 4473 in store, we run the background check, and you are on your way.

Give Us 24 Hours

For standard (non-NFA) serialized items, please give us 24 hours from delivery before coming in for pickup. We are a busy shop working hard to keep up with our growth and online presence, and that day lets us receive, log, and verify your item properly. We will text or email you the moment it’s ready.
