How Does the Financing work?

Will Calibers facilitate in the buying or selling of firearms between private parties?

Yes, Calibers will facilitate the sell or purchase of a firearm between private parties. Upon agreement between the buyer and seller, a $35 fee will be issued. At which time, the buyer will be required to perform a background check. (See requirements for a background check below). Upon the results of the background check, the following actions will be taken:

If the buyer receives a PROCEED from the ATF background check, Calibers will take possession of the firearm from the seller and then transfer the firearm to the buyer with the appropriate paperwork.
If the buyer receives a DELAY from the ATF background check, the seller will remain in possession of the firearm until a resolution is provided within 7 days. At which point Calibers will call both parties to notify them of the ATF's decision.
If the buyer receives a DENIED from the ATF background check, Calibers will immediately notify both parties of the denial from the ATF.

How much does Calibers charge for facilitating a private party transaction?

The fees for a private party transaction are as follows:

$35 per background check
$55 for background check and firearm inspection by Calibers
No refunds will be given if the buyer is DENIED from purchasing a firearm from a seller

Will Calibers facilitate an FFL transfer of a firearm from out of state?

Yes. Calibers is happy to offer FFL transfer services. Calibers only accepts out of state transfers from other FFL's. We do not accept transfers shipped from private parties.

The transfer form must be completed before the firearm arrives. Payment of the transfer fee is due upon pickup of the firearm.

Will Calibers send a firearm to a dealer out of state?

Yes. Calibers will facilitate a transfer to an out of state dealer for you. Calibers can facilitate an outbound transfer any time during business hours. Please do not pack and seal your firearm. Calibers must inspect the firearm prior to sending it out. Before coming in to Calibers to send your firearm out, please ensure you know the following information:

Name, address, and phone number of the dealer we are sending it to
Name and phone number of the individual that the firearm is ultimately going to
Value of firearm (if you want shipping insurance)
Please note that it may take up to 10 days from when we receive the firearm to get it shipped out

How much does Calibers charge for a transfer?

Outbound transfers will also be charged the cost of packing and shipping the item. Outbound NFA items usually require the payment of another tax stamp and the approval of a Form 4 before we can take possession of them. Failure to fill out the inbound transfer form before the firearm is received by Calibers will result in an additional $15 per firearm processing fee. The Transfer fees are as follows:

$15 per firearm for Platinum Elite, Patriot, and Lifetime members
$20 per firearm for Silver, Gold, Platinum, Yearly, and Family members
$40 per firearm for non-members
$100 for any NFA item (Silencer, SBR, SBS, Machine Gun, etc…)

What is required for the background check?

A current government issued photo identification card, such as a driver’s license or CCW permit, with your current physical address on it is required. If your identification card does not have your current address, Calibers accepts the following (in conjunction with your photo ID) if it has your current address:

Hunting or Fishing License
Vehicle Registration
Voter Registration

*Calibers can release the firearm same day if a “Proceed” status is given by the FBI. In the event of a “Delay”, Calibers cannot release the firearm unless the status is updated to “Proceed” or 7 days have passed.
