How Your Order Gets to You

The Gun Dock is an online dealer. When you purchase a firearm from us, here's how the process works:

1. Place Your Order

  • Purchase online at www.thegundock.com or through GunBroker
  • Choose your FFL dealer during checkout using the built-in FFL finder
  • Ammunition, magazines, optics, accessories, and parts do not need an FFL and ship straight to your door

2. FFL Verification

  • Email your FFL dealer's license to FFL@THEGUNDOCK.COM
  • We verify your FFL dealer with the ATF database
  • This typically takes 1-2 business days

3. Shipping

  • Your firearm ships directly to your chosen FFL dealer
  • Items ship via FedEx or UPS with adult signature required
  • Tracking information is provided once shipped

4. Pickup at Your FFL Dealer

  • Your FFL dealer will notify you when the item arrives
  • Complete Form 4473 and background check at your FFL
  • Bring a valid government-issued photo ID
  • Your FFL dealer may charge their own transfer fee

Tips

  • Email your FFL copy to FFL@THEGUNDOCK.COM as soon as possible to speed things up
  • Make sure your FFL dealer is expecting the shipment
  • If you have questions about your order status, email support@thegundock.com
