There are 11 different licenses. One- the 03 C&R FFL license, is for collectors- you must be 21, and not prohibited from owning guns. All others are business licenses- you must meet those requirements and be licensed to engage in the business covered under that license.

Federal Firearms License


Can a felon retail firearms?

No. Aside from the federal law which states that a felon may not have access to, be in possession of, or purchase firearms, anyone who handles firearms in that shop must be covered under the shop's Federal Firearms Licence - any employees who are included under that licence may not handle firearms in that shop. No convicted felon is going to be approved for that.

Will a federal firearms license let you take a loaded gun anywhere in the US?

No. A Federal Firearms License is a licence to engage in the business of selling guns, or to collect guns, or make guns, or import guns, or make ammunition, etc. It has no bearing on CARRYING a gun, which is regulated by STATE law. There is no FEDERAL law on carrying of firearms, except certain Federal property prohibits carry, and that a law enforcement officer may carry in any state. If someone tells you that have a Federal Concealed Carry permit, they are lying.

What is an FFL dealer?

A firearms dealer. To be able to do business as such, you must have a Federal Firearms Licence (FFL). Most gun shops will have a Type 1 FFL, and pawn shops will have a Type 2 FFL. A Type 3 FFL is the only class of FFL which does not permit the possessor to act as a dealer.


Does Pennsylvania allow silencers for firearms?

No. Silencers are against federal law, so no state law can over ride it. ------ Actually, that is incorrect. Suppressors (silencers) are quite legal in the US. Federal law restricts them, but does not prohibit them. The federal requirements are not difficult to meet. Checking PA state law it appears that suppressors are also quite legal in that state so long as you comply with the federal requirements.
