Buying a gun in Iowa is easier than you think
Pick your firearm, choose a local Iowa FFL at checkout (we'll help if you don't have one), and we ship it insured. When it arrives, you complete a federal 4473, pass a NICS background check — usually just minutes — and take your gun home the same visit. You must be 21 for a handgun, 18 for a long gun, with valid Iowa ID. Ammunition skips the FFL and ships right to you.
Why buy from a local dealer?
The big sites treat you like an order number. We answer the phone, we shoot what we sell, and we'll tell you honestly when a cheaper gun is the right call. Whether you're in Iowa City, Cedar Rapids, Des Moines or anywhere in the state, you get a real dealer behind the transaction — before and after the sale.
