Commonly Asked Questions

Do you accept FFL transfers? If so, what is the process and the fee?

Yes we do. We charge $75 if ordering from Buds Guns and $50 from everywhere else. When ordering online choose Flashpoint Firearms as the FFL transfer. Once we receive the firearm in the store we will get it into our system and give you a call to come down to start the paperwork process.
If you cannot choose Flashpoint for the FFL transfer and need us to send our FFL to where you purchased from, please send an email to flashpointfsg@gmail.com and include your Order Number, Name and who we need to send our FFL to and we will get that done.
**Please wait to come to the store to start your paperwork until we call and let you know your firearm is in.**

Do you have a layaway program?

Yes we do!
We have TWO programs available.
We have a 30 day layaway, we will run your background and you will have 30 days without any fees. If the firearm is not picked up in those 30 days there will be fees assessed and the background will need to be re-ran as they are only good for 30 days.
We also have a 90 day layaway that includes fees, however, the first 30 days are interest free. With this layaway we will not run your background until the firearm has been completely paid off.

I am transferring a firearm to you, when can I start my paperwork?

We must have the firearm in store to confirm the firearm and serial number before we can start the 4473. If transferring a firearm to us we will call you once we receive your firearm into our system so you can come in to fill out the 4473 and run your background. Please bring in a copy of your order confirmation so we can attach that to your paperwork to confirm your 72 hour wait period. If you have passed the waiting period and your background is approved you will be able to take possession of your firearm that day.

Absolutely! We work with local Wisconsin dealers to transfer the purchased items. We can also ship a firearm to your local FFL dealer (shipping cost will be added to the total of the firearm for items being shipped).
