How Buying From Range Ready Supply Works
Buying suppressors, firearms, and ammunition online is more straightforward than most first-time shooters expect, and it is completely legal when done through a licensed dealer. Here is exactly how the process works from the moment you add an item to your cart to the day you take it home.
Step 1: Shop & Build Your Kit
Browse our curated selection of suppressors, rifles, pistols, ammunition, and accessories from trusted, top-tier manufacturers. Add what you need to your cart and check out with secure, encrypted, PCI-compliant technology. Not sure what fits your build? Our specialists are a phone call or message away.
Step 2: Choose Your Local Dealer
Firearms and NFA items cannot ship directly to your door. During or after checkout you select a licensed FFL or SOT dealer from our nationwide network — or use your own preferred dealer — for the final, in-person transfer. Ammunition and most accessories ship straight to your home where the law allows.
Step 3: We Handle the Paperwork
For NFA items such as suppressors, we provide guided ATF Form 4 and Form 1 eForm assistance on every order. We explain individual versus gun-trust options in plain English and keep you updated from submission through approval, so there is no guesswork.
Step 4: Complete Your Transfer
Once your firearm arrives at your chosen dealer — or once your NFA item is approved — you visit in person, complete the standard federal background check paperwork, and take possession after you are cleared. Most non-NFA background checks are completed quickly, often the same day.
What You Should Know Before You Order
- You must be 18+ for most long guns and 21+ for handguns and NFA items.
- NFA items require an approved ATF Form 4 and a one-time $200 tax stamp before pickup.
- FFL transfer fees are set by the receiving dealer, typically $20–$50 per firearm.
- Know your state’s rules on waiting periods, magazine capacity, and permitted models — see our State Restrictions page.
Standard Firearm vs. NFA Item
A standard firearm ships to your local FFL, where you complete ATF Form 4473 and a background check at pickup with no tax stamp and often same-day clearance. An NFA item such as a suppressor ships to an FFL/SOT dealer, requires an ATF Form 4, a one-time $200 tax stamp, and an approval wait before pickup, and can be purchased as an individual or through a gun trust.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why can’t firearms ship to my home?
Federal law requires that firearms transfer through a licensed dealer who conducts the background check in person. This keeps every purchase fully compliant.
How long does the whole process take?
Non-NFA firearms are usually ready shortly after they arrive at your dealer. NFA items depend on ATF approval times, which we track and update you on throughout. More detail is in our FAQ.
Can I use my own FFL dealer?
Yes, as long as they agree to receive the transfer and send us a copy of their license.
