Person to Person

Pennsylvania requires personal sales of handguns and firearms with barrels under 18” (shotguns) or 16” (rifles) to be transferred through a licensed dealer for background checks. This service is $30 per firearm.

For estate dispositions involving multiple firearms to the same individual, contact us for efficient processing.

Call (412) 409-2925 or email info@alleghenyarms.com.

Gunbroker Purchases

Purchases made through our own Gunbroker account may be picked up in-store at no charge (the $5 PICS fee applies to all firearms purchases). Purchases made through an outside Gunbroker account incur the standard Internet/Inbound Transfer fee of $50/firearm. Please refer to the following:

Select Allegheny Arms as the receiving dealer during checkout. The seller can download our current FFL & SOT from the “Sold Orders” Gunbroker page under “View Order.”

If the seller cannot download the license, email gbsales@alleghenyarms.com with a copy of their license. We respond within 1 business day.

After the item ships, track it using the seller’s tracking number. Allow up to 24 hours after delivery for us to notify you that it is ready for pickup. Do not come to the store until notified.

Firearms are held for 30 days at no charge. Starting day 31, a $5 per day per firearm storage fee applies. On day 60 the item is returned to the original owner.

Internet / Inbound Transfers

We accept transfers from external FFLs and private individuals for $50 per firearm, including the PICS background check.

The seller typically includes a copy of their FFL/SOT license with the shipment. Alternatively, sellers may email gbsales@alleghenyarms.com with their FFL/SOT. Non-FFL sellers should provide name, address, phone number, and firearm make/model. We respond within 1 business day.

Our FFL# is 8-25-003-01-8M-07433. Sellers can verify us at fflezcheck.atf.gov.

Outbound Shipping

Outbound transfers are $20/handgun & $45/long gun plus the actual shipping cost. We ship via FedEx or USPS depending on delivery times and insurance needs. Firearms must ship to a Federal Firearms Licensee.

Provide the receiving dealer’s and buyer’s contact information. Preferably obtain the receiving dealer’s FFL beforehand, or have them email it to gbsales@alleghenyarms.com.

We do not accept pre-packaged firearms — we must verify and record the firearm information. Disposable packaging is provided. Hard cases are available for purchase.
