Buying a gun online, or from someone who lives in another state?

Then you will need to have it FFL transferred in order to take it home. But what is a FFL dealer transfer? FFL stands for Federal Firearms Licensee, so simply put a FFL transfer is the change in possession of a firearm from one FFL to another FFL. Since the Gun Control Act of 1968 all firearms that are sold interstate (across state lines) must be transferred using a Federal Firearms Licensee.
