Are you allowed to own a firearm?

Outdoor Arms follows all requirements and rules set forth by the ATF and the state of Virginia in order to take legal possession of a firearm.

To save time and hassle, please make sure you are allowed to own a firearm.  The following are requirements in order to be authorized to own a firearm.  

• You must at least 18 years of age for a long gun and 21 for a handgun.                                  
• You must be the actual transferee / buyer of the firearm.

· Are you under indictment or information in any court for a felony or any other crime for which a judge could imprison you for more than one year?

· Have you been convicted in any court of a felony, or any other crime for which the judge could have imprisoned you for more than one year, even if you received a shorter sentence?

· Are you a fugitive from justice?

If you answer yes to ANY of these questions, you may not be able to own a firearm.  I would recommend reaching out PRIOR to purchasing the firearm.
