Records that keep themselves,
so you can keep selling.
Every acquisition, disposition, 4473 and transfer records itself as your business runs — so the hours that used to go into paperwork go back into the counter, your staff trust the book, and an ATF inspection is a read-only link you hand across the counter. Designed to meet ATF recordkeeping requirements.
Your customer sees a smooth checkout. The compliance engine works below the surface.
An FFL Stack website is like an iceberg: the storefront your customers see is only a small part of what makes it powerful. Underneath is a rules layer that evaluates the product and its destination against applicable federal and state restrictions as the shopper moves through checkout.
Depending on the rule, the shopper receives clear information, is directed into the proper FFL process, or is stopped from completing an order that cannot be fulfilled to that destination.
Stop impossible orders before they waste anyone's time.
Your customer does not pay for something they cannot legally receive. Your staff does not have to unwind the sale, issue a refund, or explain a restriction after the fact. And you do not have to maintain a patchwork of checkout notes—the logic is built into the platform and maintained centrally.
Compliance has more than one rulebook.
Some manufacturers prohibit drop shipping altogether or limit it to certain products. FFL Stack applies manufacturer and distributor fulfillment policies to the appropriate sales paths, keeping products out of automated drop-ship channels when the manufacturer does not allow them there—without preventing you from selling inventory you actually stock or can route through your store.
That helps you avoid publishing or accepting orders that conflict with your dealer agreements, remain in good standing with the brands you represent, and earn customer trust by offering orders you can fulfill correctly.
FFL Stack supports dealer compliance workflows; dealers remain responsible for their legal and regulatory obligations.
Six ways your records work for you
Everything below is included on every tier, in one subscription.
A Bound Book that protects its own history
Sequential entry numbers per license. Every entry is permanent, enforced in the database - corrections require a reason and leave the original visible. Every change lands in a tamper-evident audit log. Acquisitions and dispositions write themselves from receiving and the 4473 counter flow, so your book is current because your business ran, not because someone remembered to type.
Bring your existing book with you
Import from FFLBoss, FastBound, ORCAs, or any CSV, Excel or PDF export. The import wizard previews every row before anything is written, and re-running an import recognizes what it already has instead of duplicating it.
4473s that are ready before the inspector asks
A guided electronic 4473 with buyer identity validation, digitally captured buyer and transferor signatures, and certified-original protection - the completed record stays exactly as it was certified. Buyers can start on their own phone via a session link or QR code at the counter.
NICS the way checks actually run
FFL Stack matches the real workflow: buyer data formatted for FBI E-Check or your state POC system, manual NTN and status entry, and Brady-delay date math with a pending-delays dashboard that keeps every proceed date in front of you.
An inspection portal you can hand across the counter
Generate a tokenized view of your records for an ATF inspection - searchable, complete, and read-only end to end. The inspector gets what they need; your live system stays yours.
Transfers tracked end to end
Every online order with a firearm carries its receiving-dealer record: license number, verification, ship date, tracking, received and transferred timestamps. When a customer calls asking where their rifle is, the answer is on one screen.
How the book holds up: sequential entries, permanent records, corrections that leave the original in place, and an audit trail behind every change — all designed around ATF recordkeeping requirements. Talk to us about your records.
