How to Sell a Glock

The Glock is the best selling handgun on the market. It is widely used by police agencies, which makes it a very popular pick for civilians as well. Selling a handgun is legal as long as you follow all of the Federal laws and procedures.

Instructions

- 1
  Verify the laws in your state before attempting to sell a Glock. If you do not hold a Federal Firearms License (FFL), some states will only allow you to sell handguns within your own state. Shipping a gun illegally is a felony.
- 2
  Post a for sale ad online that thoroughly describes the Glock, the asking price and method of payment accepted. Include a picture of the handgun if you have one.
- 3
  Watch your auction and notify the winner. Provide your name and contact information to send payment and license. Require the winner to send a copy of his Federal Firearms License.
- 4
  Check with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) to verify the license and ensure that the buyer is legally allowed to purchase firearms. You can't legally sell a handgun to someone who can't legally own a gun.
- 5
  Find a shipping carrier that will ship handguns. Notify the carrier that you are shipping a firearm and that the package has no marking to indicate that a firearm is inside. Ship any ammunition separate from the handgun.
