MG Arms is a licensed FFL (Federal Firearms License) Dealer. With that license, we are obligated by federal law to complete a background check and submit the ATF Form 4473 on all gun sales. This is either done directly in our Brick and Mortar location or through a transfer to another FFL Dealer in your location. If a transfer to another location is required, that FFL Dealer may charge a fee for the process of the ATF Forms and background checks required.
