SALES
Our staff will guide you through the necessary paperwork and discuss with you the process and possible problems involved in your purchase. In Maryland, there are two broad categories of firearms: Regulated and Non-Regulated.
NON-REGULATED FIREARM SALES
Most shotguns and bolt action rifles are not regulated by the state of Maryland. By national law one must be at least 18 years old and pass a NICS background check, made by phone. A single form is completed and a copy of a valid Maryland issued ID card or Drivers License is kept on file.
REGULATED FIREARM SALES
Currently all handguns are regulated by the state. Our staff can guide you through the process of purchasing a regulated firearm when you visit the shop.
Purchasers need to meet one of a few requirements before making the purchase. If you aren’t a current or retired LEO member of the Armed Forces, you will need to get a Handgun Qualification License.
TRANSFERS
Duffy’s must be notified of all transfers before they are sent. We will send our FFL to any other FFL holder, but we must be provided with an e-mail address or fax number.
You can do that by phone 410-771-4398 or e-mail duffysgunsales@gmail.com
- Our standard transfer fee for regulated firearms is $100. Multiples papered at the same time receive a discount.
- Our standard transfer rate for non-regulated firearms is $50 ($55 if you’re paying with credit/debit card). Multiples papered at the same time receive a discount.
- If a firearm comes with magazines that hold more than 10 rounds, the customer has the option of 1) having the magazine blocked in a permanent fashion or 2) divesting themselves of the magazine in order to comply with state law.
- Blocking magazines is a $10 service fee per magazine.
- Divesting yourself of magazines we give a $10 credit per magazine (up to 3).
- Do not have magazines shipped separately from firearms. They will not be blocked and we will not offer a credit for them. They will need to be returned to the sender and there will be a handling fee in addition to any shipping cost.
- Due to variance in magazines, there is no guarantee how many rounds the blocked magazine will hold, except that they won’t exceed 10 rounds. Certain uncommon magazines may cost more, or may even be impossible to block, depending on certain factors.
We generally need one business day to have guns logged in and ready for paperwork. If you have a tracking number and see your package has arrived, please come in the next business day.
If you have any questions or need clarification, please send an email.
“HIGH CAPACITY MAGAZINE” NOTICEAs of 2013 a Maryland Resident cannot take possession of a magazine that holds more than 10 rounds within the state of Maryland. In April of 2024, the Maryland State Police has clarified the limitations on how Manufacturer FFLs can handle “high capacity magazines”. As an FFL with a manufacturer’s license, we can modify magazines in a way that is not “readily convertible” back to capacity larger than 10 rounds.
