Frequently asked questions

If you can’t find the answer you’re looking for, reach out to customer support or view all FAQ's

Is this legal?
Yes. We are a federally licensed firearms dealer located in the state of Indiana. You, the seller, are covered under our license just as you would be if you walked into our store with the item. There are no laws preventing you from selling your firearm to us.
Can I legally ship a gun?
Yes — but only through a licensed dealer (FFL). When you sell to WeBuyGuns.com, we’ll email you a prepaid shipping label and instructions. You’ll drop off the package at a carrier location (usually FedEx), and the firearm will be shipped directly to our licensed facility. You never need to ship to an individual or worry about breaking the law.
Do I need to go through a local dealer?
No. When you sell your gun to WeBuyGuns.com, you’re selling directly to a federally licensed dealer (FFL). That means you don’t need to visit a local shop or pay any transfer fees. We handle everything legally on our end and provide clear instructions for safe, compliant shipping.
How do you determine a gun's value?
We base our offer on market demand, brand, condition and recent comparable sales. When you submit your gun's make, model and condition, we use real-time data and expert insight to generate a fair, competitive quote. You’ll receive your offer quickly — no haggling, no long waiting periods.
How long are offers good for?
Offers are valid for 14 days.
Can I sell multiple firearms?
Absolutely! Once firearm information has been submitted, you will have the ability to submit additional firearms for review and offers. These firearms will be viewable from your user panel, which you access from your initial offer email. If you have a large number of firearms or an estate, it's best to contact us directly (just to save you a lot of time).
