FFL Dealers in Vermont
236 federally licensed firearms dealers across Vermont, from the ATF’s published licensee list. Pick a city for names, addresses and phone numbers.
This is the ATF licensee list — who holds a licence and where. 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 Vermont requires for a private transfer
- Vermont requires handgun private sales to go through a licensed dealer. For those, an FFL is required rather than optional.
- There is a 3-day waiting period in Vermont between purchase and taking possession.
- Transfers between immediate family members are generally exempt in Vermont, though documenting one is still worth doing.
- 72-hour wait on handguns effective 2024. Private handgun sales through FFL.

Another 228 Vermont dealers are in towns with fewer than 8 licensees each, so they do not have a page of their own. Search by ZIP code to find those.
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.
