Thats right, we have our Federal Firearms License, and we have brought in a small rack of firearms and ammunition.
In the age of big box outdoor stores, we here at Maumee Tackle are still trying to keep it personal. Bringing in firearms just adds to the old-fashioned sporting goods store feel that Maumee Tackle customers enjoy.
We primarily stock long guns geared toward hunting and target shooting. We also stock a case of several handguns, which are mainly personal defense calibers such as 9mm, .38 special, .380 and .22.
Below are some of the firearms that we currently have in stock. These are in-store sales only.
When we can get them, we keep a line of Henry Lever Actions in stock. We try to keep the following models in stock regularly:
.45 Long Colt, 30-30, .44 MAG, 45-70 GOVT
We do not buy, trade, or consign firearms. Maumee Tackle offers new firearm sales only.
At this time, we are also able to process firearms transfers. This means that if you purchase a gun from an online gun dealer or for an in-person private transfer, we can accept the delivery and for a $25 fee, process the background check, do the paperwork and transfer the firearm into your name.
Currently, I am listed to accept transfers from the following online gun brokers and working on getting added to more sites. If you have a favorite gun dealer that is not listed, let me know, and I will get in contact with them to get it set up.
Transferring a gun to Maumee Tackle is a very easy operation.
Wherever you buy the gun they are going to need a copy of our Federal Firearms License in order to ship the gun to us.
If we are not currently listed with that particular gun broker we can mail, e-mail, or fax them a copy of our license. They will then send the gun to us for you to pick up.
They will need to include TWO things with the gun:
After the gun has been processed into our system, we will call you to let you know that the gun is ready to be picked up. If you are tracking your transfer and it shows it has arrived that does not mean that it is ready to be picked up.
Please wait for us to call or you can come by 24 hours after your notification by the carrier.
To pick up the gun you will need a valid State photo ID/DL and will need to fill out a Federal Form 4473 for the background check. Once all of these are complete, and your background check is an approved, you can pay your transfer fee of $25 and take your gun home.
TRANSFERS WILL BE HELD FOR 90 DAYS UNLESS A LONGER TIME IS APPROVED IN WRITING. ANY GUN LEFT AFTER 90 DAYS WILL BECOME THE PROPERTY OF MAUMEE TACKLE.
Maumee Tackle is always ready to help you transfer a gun. If you need us to send a copy of our FFL to another dealer or person, we can make a copy of our FFL to send to them. You can always call and talk to any of our salespeople if you have questions about this process
No, all firearms must be sent to an FFL (federal firearms license) dealer.
Yes, all firearms purchases require a federally mandated background check to be completed by the FFL dealer at the time the firearm is picked up, including in-store purchases.

No, you do not need a carry permit to purchase a gun.
Yes! It is entirely legal to purchase a firearm online, but the firearm must be shipped to a licensed FFL dealer.
The Gun Control Act of 1968 outlined new rules for selling and transferring firearms. As a result, it is now federal law to have all firearms shipped to an FFL dealer so the person the firearm is being transferred to can fill out the proper paperwork and complete the required background check.
