If you are getting ready to transfer a firearm and want to request our FFL/SOT information:

We do not provide our FFL information to anyone other than the shipping FFL (the company you are purchasing from). FFL@toppackdefense.com is where FFL/SOT dealers can reach out to us with a copy of their license and make a request for Top Pack Defenses' licensing. 
 

If you are looking to ship a firearm to another FFL:

Top Pack Defense does not ship out pre-owned firearms. Purchases made in store can be shipped & transfered to any FFL/SOT lisensee of the customer's choosing (customers will be responsible for the cost of shipping and prepare to pay the intended FFL dealers transfer fees).
