Frequently asked questions
If you can’t find the answer you’re looking for, reach out to customer support or View all FAQs
- Is selling my firearm to WeBuyGuns.com legal in Massachusetts?
- 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. There are no laws preventing you from selling your firearm to us.
- Can I sell a firearm I do not have the original box or paperwork?
- Yes. In most cases we only need clear photos and accurate details so we can make a documented offer. If anything else is needed, we will tell you during the review.
- How long are offers good for?
- Offers are valid for 14 days.
- Does WeBuyGuns.com purchase multiple firearms, collections or estates?
- 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 is best to contact us directly (to save you time).
- How do I get paid?
- We will either send you a check, or we will issue the funds via a secure ACH direct deposit. During the offer approval process, you will tell us which method of payment you prefer.
- What if I inherited firearms and don’t know much about them?
- Inherited firearms are common. You can start by sending photos or a simple list of items and we’ll help identify what you have, explain what affects value and guide you through the next steps before anything is shipped.
- Do all firearm sales in Massachusetts have to go through a licensed dealer?
- Yes. Massachusetts requires nearly all firearm transfers to be completed through a licensed firearms dealer. Private, face-to-face transfers without dealer involvement are not permitted. Selling to a licensed buyer like WeBuyGuns ensures the transfer is handled correctly and fully documented.
- Can I sell a firearm in Massachusetts if it is not on the approved handgun roster?
- Roster restrictions apply primarily to dealer sales to consumers, not dealer purchases. Many firearms that are difficult or impossible to sell privately in Massachusetts can still be sold to a licensed dealer. We regularly work with Massachusetts sellers to legally remove firearms that are otherwise hard to transfer in-state.
- I inherited firearms in Massachusetts — what do I need to do before selling?
- Inherited firearms often come with additional paperwork and deadlines in Massachusetts. Selling directly to a licensed dealer allows the estate or heir to transfer the firearms without navigating individual registration filings or coordinating multiple dealer visits.
