What Is an Illinois FFL Transfer?
An FFL transfer is how you legally receive a firearm in Illinois when you purchase it from an out-of-state dealer, an online retailer like GunBroker, or a private seller from another state. Federal law requires that the firearm ship to a licensed Federal Firearms Dealer (FFL) in your state, who then processes the paperwork and releases it to you.
Law Weapons & Supply is a licensed Illinois FFL dealer in Aurora. We accept transfers from anywhere in the country, process them quickly, and hand the firearm to you after Illinois's required waiting period. Customers from Naperville, Joliet, Plainfield, and all of Chicagoland use us for FFL transfers every week.
