Purchasing Firearms – The Basics

Brian Lebel’s Old West Auction follows all Federal, State and Local laws regarding the sale of firearms. It is your responsibility to follow any applicable state and local laws pertaining to your state of residence.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE) is the Federal body governing the sale of firearms. There is a wealth of information on their website at: www.atf.gov.
Following is an overview for those wishing to bid on firearms at the Old West Auction.
There are 2 basic categories of firearms: Antique and Modern.
Antique firearms are those manufactured prior to Dec. 31, 1898.
• Anyone may purchase an antique firearm.
• You may take possession of an antique firearm at the auction (after you pay for it, of course), or they may be shipped directly to your home or business address. Packing, shipping and insurance charges will apply.
• You should never attempt to fire an antique firearm (or any used firearm) without a prior inspection by a reputable firearms expert.
Modern firearms are those manufactured after Dec., 31, 1898.
Modern firearms must be transferred by our licensed FFL (Federal Firearms License) dealer to a licensed FFL holder. The Old West Auction has retained the services of Pete Erickson of Frontier Americana of Fargo to serve as our licensed FFL dealer for initiating transfers.
Federal law dictates that our dealer (Pete) MUST ship current modern firearms from his business premises to a licensed FFL dealer, in the buyer’s home state. Before Pete can ship the firearm to your dealer, he must first receive a copy of your dealer’s FFL license.
Please note, UPS requires that all modern handguns (handguns only, not long guns) be shipped via Next Day service. Transfer and Shipping charges will be assessed as follows:
All modern shipped firearms will be assessed a $25 packing, handling and insurance fee;
Hand guns will be charged a $30 shipping fee;
Long guns will be charged a $55 shipping fee.
When your firearm arrives at the licensed dealer in your home state, it is that dealer’s responsibility to run a Federal background check (known as a NICS check) before you can take possession of the firearm. It is customary for the receiving dealer to charge a fee for processing the receipt of your firearm, this fee varies from dealer to dealer and state to state.
If you have any questions or concerns about purchasing firearms at the Old West Auction, you may contact Pete Erickson, Frontier Americana of Fargo, at (701) 261-4434. Pete will be on-site at the Old West Show and Auction.
