How do I purchase a firearm from Lloyd Tacticalarms?

Purchasing a firearm involves a few key steps to ensure compliance with federal and Kansas state law. You can browse our inventory online or in-store. Once you select an item, you will undergo a background check through the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS). We will guide you through the entire process, making it as straightforward as possible. Remember, having a valid government-issued photo ID is step one in this process.

Do you ship firearms, and how does an FFL transfer work?

Yes, we ship firearms to licensed Federal Firearms License (FFL) holders across the country. If you purchase a firearm online, you must select a local FFL dealer in your area to receive the shipment. You will then complete the background check and transfer paperwork with that dealer. We are happy to coordinate with your chosen FFL. Contact us for a list of preferred FFL partners in Kansas.

What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept all major credit cards, debit cards, cash, and certified checks for in-store purchases. For online orders, we accept major credit cards. Financing options may also be available.
