Buying a firearm online can be straightforward when the order is handled responsibly and in accordance with applicable laws. The exact requirements vary by product, customer location, and the lawful transfer process that applies to the order.
This guide provides general information for customers considering a listed firearm purchase through Marlin Firearms. It is not legal advice. If you are unsure about the rules that apply to your purchase, contact a properly licensed local firearms dealer or the appropriate authority before ordering.
1. Review the listed product information
Start by reviewing the relevant product page carefully. Confirm the listed model, calibre, product features, and availability before submitting an order. If you are comparing several options, our Shop page and category pages make it easier to explore the available models.
Product availability can change, and a listing does not guarantee that an order can be fulfilled for every destination. If you have a question about a particular listed model, contact our team before placing your order.
2. Place your order with accurate details
Use accurate contact, billing, and delivery information at checkout. This allows our team to review the order and contact you if additional details are needed.
Customers can place orders as guests. You do not need to create an account. Keep your order confirmation email, as it includes the order number needed for future support and order-status enquiries.
3. Your order is reviewed before fulfilment
After an order is placed, it is reviewed before fulfilment proceeds. This review helps confirm product availability, destination details, payment arrangements, and any applicable transfer requirements.
Depending on the order, our team may contact you for further information. Please check the email address used during checkout, including your spam or junk folder, for order-related messages.
4. Understand the transfer process
Firearm purchases must comply with applicable federal, state, and local laws. Depending on the product and destination, delivery or transfer through a properly licensed firearms dealer may be required.
Requirements can vary by location. Your receiving dealer may have their own policies, documentation requirements, transfer fees, and collection procedures. It is sensible to contact the receiving dealer before ordering so you understand their process.
Marlin Firearms cannot provide individual legal advice. Customers remain responsible for ensuring that they are legally eligible to purchase, receive, possess, and use any item they request.
5. Payment instructions are sent after review
Payment instructions are sent by email after an order has been placed and reviewed. Available payment arrangements may include Zelle, PayPal, cryptocurrency, and IBAN bank transfer for eligible European customers.
Do not send payment until you receive the relevant instructions for your order. Use your order number as the payment reference where requested so that the payment can be matched to the correct purchase.
6. Shipping and delivery depend on the order
Shipping availability depends on the product, destination, compliance review, and any required transfer coordination. Not every product can be shipped to every location.
For a clearer overview, read our Shipping & Delivery guidance . International sales are limited and reviewed individually. Customers outside the United States should contact us before placing an order.
7. Keep your order information available
Keep your order number, order-confirmation email, and any messages from our customer-support team. You can use the Track My Order page to check the status of an existing order using the order number and the billing email address entered at checkout.
If you need to correct an order detail or have a general question, contact our team promptly. Changes or cancellations may not be possible once an order has entered fulfilment, shipment, or a required transfer process.
