FFL Dealers in Dubuque, IA
12 federally licensed firearms dealers in Dubuque, from the ATF’s published licensee list. Address and phone for each.
This is the ATF licensee list — who holds a licence, where, and their listed phone number. It is not opening hours, not transfer fees, and not a guarantee that a given dealer handles private-party transfers. Call before you drive.

What the list says about Dubuque
- Of these, 10 hold a dealer licence and 2 are pawnbrokers — both can run a transfer, though a pawn counter may quote differently for one.
- They are spread across 3 ZIP codes (52001, 52002, 52003), so the nearest one may not be the first on this list — check the address against where you actually are.
- Dubuque ranks 9th of the 450 Iowa towns that have any licensed dealer, holding 1.1% of the state's licences.
Iowa does not require a private sale to go through a licensed dealer. Using one anyway is what puts a background check and a paper trail behind the sale — which is the part that protects the seller if the firearm later turns up somewhere it should not. Full Iowa transfer law guide →

Doing the transfer itself
A dealer handles the background check. The bill of sale, both parties’ records and a permanent copy of the paperwork are what Gun Transfer does — $50 flat, about ten minutes, without either of you driving anywhere twice.
