Register firearms

Register firearms, get a firearm certification when your community requires one, and transfer them.

Registering a firearm puts it on record with its owner. Open Civilian, then Firearms.

Register a firearm

Press Register Firearm and pick the Owner, Type, Make and Model. Serial is 4 to 20 letters, digits or hyphens; leave it blank to generate one such as GLK-20391. If your community doesn't let civilians choose serials, it is always generated.

Firearms are registered at once. They never go to the DMV.

StatusMeaning
RegisteredOn record with this owner.
StolenReported stolen by the owner.
SeizedSeized by police. Read-only.

The menu has Edit Firearm, Report Stolen, Mark Recovered, Transfer Firearm and Remove Firearm.

A character police flagged as a felon can't register firearms.

Firearm certification

Your community can require a certification: Admin, General, Firearms require a certification. It is off by default.

When it is on, a character needs a valid Firearm Certification to register or receive a firearm. Instead of the form, you see Get Certified, which takes you to Licenses to apply for it like any license.

Transfer a firearm

Transfer Firearm works like vehicle transfers: instant to your own characters, accepted under Transfers by another member's character. Only a registered firearm can be transferred; stolen and seized ones can't. The recipient needs a certification when your community requires one.
