Shipping to New York
New York separates cleanly into two questions: the firearm, which goes to your FFL and needs a pistol licence if it is a handgun, and the ammunition, which cannot come to your house and has to go to an FFL or a registered seller instead.
Firearms
Every firearm ordered from htxguns.com ships to a licensed dealer in New York — never to a home address. You pick the dealer at checkout, we send the gun and a copy of our licence, and you collect from them once the background check clears. The dealer sets their own transfer fee and collects it directly from you.
Ammunition
New York requires ammunition to go to an FFL or a registered seller. We cannot ship it to a home address.
Suppressors and NFA items
New York prohibits civilian suppressor possession, so we cannot transfer one there. This holds even with an approved Form 4 and a federal registration — federal approval does not override a state prohibition.
Optics, holsters, parts and gear
Everything outside firearms, ammunition and NFA ships direct to your address in New York with no dealer and no paperwork.
What to have ready
A New York pistol licence for any handgun transfer. Your receiving dealer verifies this before they can release the firearm, so it is worth sorting out before you order rather than after the package arrives.
Common questions
Can you ship a firearm to New York?
Yes. Every firearm ships to a licensed dealer in New York that you choose at checkout, never to a home address. You collect it from them once the background check clears.
Can ammunition be shipped to my address in New York?
Not to your home. New York requires ammunition to transfer through a licensed dealer, so it ships to an FFL exactly as a firearm does.
Are suppressors legal in New York?
No. New York prohibits civilian suppressor possession, and federal registration does not override a state ban.
What do I need to bring to my New York transfer?
A New York pistol licence for any handgun transfer. Your receiving dealer verifies it before releasing the firearm.
This page is our shipping policy, not legal advice. New York's permit, waiting period, roster and magazine rules are applied by your receiving dealer at transfer, and several states' rules are currently being litigated. For the law itself, go to New York State Police. Last reviewed 2026-08-16.
