Full description and what we offer
Prepper Gun Shop (operated by Roughrider Arms LLC) is a mail-order firearms dealer shipping nationwide. They don't operate a physical storefront—instead, you order online and specify a local Federal Firearms License holder to receive your firearm.
When you buy a firearm from Prepper Gun Shop, here's the process:
1. Place your order online 2. Select or find a local FFL dealer (gun shop, pawn shop, or sporting goods store) near you 3. They ship to that FFL 4. You pick up at the local dealer, complete the federal Form 4473, pass a background check, and take possession
Most FFL dealers charge a transfer fee (paid directly to them, not Prepper Gun Shop). The company maintains a searchable FFL locator tool on their site and warns customers to verify their chosen dealer accepts transfers from them before ordering.

FFL Transfer Note: Not every gun shop accepts transfers from all online retailers. Prepper Gun Shop warns that if you select an unverified FFL location, you're responsible for confirming they accept transfers from them before ordering.
Prepper Gun Shop focuses on volume and convenience—thousands of items available for mail delivery to your local FFL. They stock hard-to-find items like specialty AR pistols, Tavor accessories, and unique platform options. The layaway program makes expensive purchases accessible, and their FFL locator tool simplifies the transfer process for first-time online buyers.
