Getting a firearm transferred in South Dakota
When you buy a firearm online or from another state, the seller ships it to a licensed dealer, not to you. You pick the dealer, the dealer receives the firearm, and you complete ATF Form 4473 and a background check in person before taking it home. Dealers set their own transfer fees and policies, so call first to confirm they will accept the shipment. South Dakota may add its own rules on top of federal law, such as waiting periods, permits or restrictions on certain firearms; your dealer will know what applies.
