GFR LLC operates as a Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL) in Fredericksburg, Virginia, specializing in transfers from online purchases, auctions, and private party sales. They've built their reputation on transparency—literally posting their FFL publicly on their website because they think other shops should do the same.
FFL-to-FFL Transfers - Accept firearms from licensed dealers nationwide - Competitive, flat-rate pricing - Require email notification with shipper FFL details
Private Party & Auction Transfers - Accept firearms from non-FFL sources - Require color copy of seller's valid driver's license - Phone number for verification - Run background checks on the firearm itself (catches stolen items)
Person-to-Person (P2P) Transfers Virginia allows private transfers with background checks. GFR handles this: - Background check on firearm - Background check on buyer - Logging and documentation - $12 total per item ($10 transfer + $2 background check)
| Transfer Type | Cost | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Civilian (up to 3 items) | $25 | One handgun max per 5 days |
| Military/Veteran/1st Responder (up to 3 items) | $25 | One handgun max per 5 days |
| P2P Transfer | $12 per item | Can be split buyer/seller |
| Transfer Rewards | Every 11th = FREE | Loyalty program |
Virginia Handgun Limits (as of July 1, 2020): One handgun per 30 days for civilians. Concealed carry permit holders and law enforcement exempt. GFR will flag multiple handguns within 5 days to ATF (federal requirement)—they tell you this upfront.
Critical Rule: Item must be picked up by the person named on shipping information. NO EXCEPTIONS. Having someone else pick up a firearm you were denied for is a federal straw purchase violation.
| Firearm Type | Age Requirement |
|---|---|
| Handguns & stripped receivers | 21 years |
| Shotguns & rifles | 18 years |
| Handgun ammunition | 21 years |
| Long gun ammunition | 18 years |
GFR publishes their FFL number publicly because they believe other shops should do the same. Most FFLs treat their license like a "secret squirrel" document—GFR sees that as making transfers harder than they need to be. They've kept transfer fees flat for over a decade and explicitly tell you about Virginia's handgun reporting requirement (most shops don't disclose this).
Their FAQs directly answer the questions people actually have: Can my spouse pick it up? (No.) What if my ID address is wrong? (Update it at DMV first.) Do I have to worry about my medical marijuana card? (Yes, still illegal federally.)
