Full description and what we offer
East Coast Arsenal operates as a fully licensed firearms dealer and NFA specialist located at 231 Nazareth Pike, Bethlehem, PA 18020—right on Route 191 in Lower Nazareth. This isn't a typical gun shop. They've built the facility to deliver what serious firearm owners actually need: clean, secure, professional service backed by people who understand the business.
The core offering breaks into two camps:
FFL & Gunsmithing Services: - Firearms Private Transfers (in-store purchases) - Firearms Online Transfers (FFL transfers from online retailers) - Rifle & Pistol Cleaning - Bore Sighting & Scope Mounting - Pistol Sight Swap - Pin and Weld Services - Barrel Threading
NFA Compliance & Services: - Fingerprinting & Trust Services - NFA Processing & Storage - NFA Transfers (Form 3 dealer transfers typically complete within 2 weeks) - Suppressor Installation & Cleaning - Short Barrel Rifle (SBR) Service - Short Barrel Shotgun (SBS) Service
They also buy used firearms for cash every day of the week—bring in an unloaded, cased gun and walk out with a quote or trade-in credit toward something new.
| Day | Hours |
|---|---|
| Monday - Friday | 10 AM – 8 PM |
| Saturday - Sunday | 10 AM – 6 PM |
Handguns: Pennsylvania resident, 21+ with valid state ID, must pass PICS background check Long Guns (Rifles/Shotguns): 18+ years old, must pass PICS background check Ammunition: 18+ for rifle/shotgun ammo; 21+ for handgun ammo (shipped ground with adult signature required)
If you're ordering firearms online from retailers, they're your local FFL endpoint. Here's how it works:
1. Retailer ships to East Coast Arsenal as your FFL of choice 2. You pass PICS background check at their store 3. You take legal possession
For NFA items (suppressors, SBRs, SBS): The receiving dealer must contact East Coast Arsenal before they can initiate the Form 3 transfer. Expect 2 weeks max for the form to process once the dealer contacts them. Online orders ship within 1-3 days via UPS or FedEx with tracking.
Beyond firearms and ammo, they stock accessories, tactical gear, optics, illumination devices, night vision, and ballistic armor. Inventory changes daily—check their site for current stock.
All firearm and ammunition sales are final. No returns, no refunds, no exchanges just because you changed your mind. NFA items, optics, night vision, ballistic armor, and used/open-box items fall under this policy.
East Coast Arsenal targets three main groups: - First-time buyers looking for guidance and a safe introduction to firearm ownership - Collectors expanding well-curated collections with FFL and NFA expertise - Law enforcement and first responders needing specialized services
Decades of combined experience on the team. They position this as a modern alternative to traditional gun shops—focused on education, professionalism, and responsible ownership rather than volume sales.
