Frequently Asked Questions
Can I sell a firearm I inherited?
You can sell a firearm you inherited. Just make sure you follow the relevant state and federal laws for the sale. For example, you can’t sell the inherited gun to someone prohibited from owning guns. You also need to use an FFL (Federal Firearms Licensee) for a transfer if selling to someone from another state.
Do I need a license to sell a gun from a family member’s estate?
You don’t need a license to sell a gun from a family member’s estate. As long as you’re the legal inheritor or executor of the estate, you can sell the firearm. Again, simply remember to follow all federal and state gun laws for the sale.
What if the guns aren’t registered or I don’t have paperwork?
Even if the guns in an estate aren’t registered or lack paperwork, you can usually still sell them. There are only a few specific cases where guns need to be registered and have the proper documents to be legally sold. For example, you can’t sell NFA guns that aren’t registered. Without proper registration and documentation, they can’t even be possessed or sold in the US.
How do I transport a gun safely to you?
You can transport a gun safely to us by unloading it, putting it in a secure container or case, and bringing it to us that way. However, you don’t need to do this if you live far away from our Jacksonville headquarters. You can use our prepaid shipping labels instead. We send those if you accept our offer to purchase your guns. With them, you don’t have to pay anything because we cover the cost of shipping. Just make sure that you unload the firearms before packing them. We also recommend using enough packing material to stop the gun from getting dented or scratched in transit.
Do you buy ammunition or accessories too?
We also buy ammunition and accessories at Cash for Arms. Simply send us the details here through our submission form and we’ll send you our best offer.
Can you sell a gun collection?
You can sell a gun collection. We’ve bought collections with over a hundred firearms in them and ones with just a handful. Again, you only need to send us the details to get started.
