Common questions about shopping and transfers at Briarhawk.
01
How long will you hold my FFL transfer?
The hold period starts when we first contact you to let you know your firearm is ready for pickup. We’ll send a reminder at 10 days. If your firearm is still here after 30 days, we’ll send another reminder and add a $10 storage fee. After 60 days, we’ll add another $10 storage fee, for $20 total in storage fees, and contact you and the sending dealer to discuss a possible return.
02
What’s your return policy?
All firearm and ammunition sales are final. All other merchandise may be returned within 15 days of purchase.
Yes. Ask the sending dealer to email ffl@briarhawk.com for a copy of our FFL. We’ll contact you by text or phone once we’ve received and logged your firearm.
Do I need an appointment for a private-party transfer?
You can walk in together during store hours. Both parties should bring valid government-issued photo ID. The seller should bring the firearm unloaded and clear, with no ammunition accompanying it. A case is preferred but optional.
Is there a background check fee for a private-party transfer?
All private-party transfer background checks are free of charge. That includes the buyer’s check and any check required to return the firearm to the seller. The transfer fee is $35 for the first firearm and $20 for each additional firearm in the same transaction.
What if the buyer doesn’t pass the background check for a private-party transfer?
If the buyer is denied and Briarhawk is holding the firearm, the seller must return to the store and complete ATF Form 4473 to get it back. The seller must also complete a background check unless they present a valid, qualifying Nevada concealed firearms permit. If a seller background check is required, it’s free of charge. Form 4473 is still required.
