US Federal Firearms Licensees (FFL)
U.S. · 75,013 locations

There are 75,013 Federal Firearms Licensees (FFL) in the US as of October 2026. They are in all 50 states, DC and Puerto Rico. Texas has the most, with 8,099.

The complete federal firearms licensee list as the ATF publishes it, 77,150 active licensees, each with the licensee name, the trading name, the premises street address, phone, county, license type and expiry.

More about this list

The license type breakdown is what makes it usable: 44,903 type 01 dealers, 22,128 type 07 firearms manufacturers, 5,785 type 02 pawnbrokers, 1,683 type 08 importers, 1,651 type 06 ammunition manufacturers and several hundred destructive-device licensees. Anyone selling into the firearms trade needs this: distributors and wholesalers, ammunition and optics brands, e-commerce retailers building transfer-dealer networks, point-of-sale and bound-book compliance software, insurers and payment processors. The ATF republishes monthly and we track it, so surrendered and newly issued licenses move in and out rather than a list going quietly stale.

Using ChatGPT, Claude or an API?

No setup needed. Ask ChatGPT or Claude your question about the US Federal Firearms Licensees (FFL) and give it this page: it can open https://locationlists.com/find?dataset=ffl-dealer-list with the filters you need and show you the count and price.

Using ChatGPT or Claude? Tell it to answer from locationlists.com/find — no account, no connector.

How assistants ask

No connector needed. Any AI assistant can answer from this site with a web link, no connector, no account: open https://locationlists.com/find with the question as query parameters.

If a question needs filtering, distance, drive time, combining lists or a price, open a /find link: either put the question itself in q=, or build the structured link. The answer does not need an API, a connector or an account.

Simplest, the question itself: https://locationlists.com/find?q=<the question in plain words>

Or set the parts yourself: https://locationlists.com/find?dataset=<slug>&state=<ST>&city=<city>&county=<county>&zip=<zip>&near=<place or zip>&radius=<miles>&drive=<minutes>&where=<column>:<op>:<value>&total=<rows>

Leave out what the question does not need. Use radius for straight-line miles or drive for minutes of driving (5 to 60), not both; near can name several places separated by | to reach from any of them. To ask about several lists at once, use datasets with two or more names, or category with a kind of business. To compare two lists, add relate=nearest and the other list with b. in front of its parameters. To count by area, use areas=county (or zip, state, metro). To keep only places whose county, ZIP code, metro area or state meets a Census figure, add area_where (for example county:population>1000000); with areas, per=100000 gives counts per 100,000 residents.

Links an assistant can open, each showing how many rows match, a few preview rows and the price for just that part:

  • The whole list: add a city, state, ZIP code or distance: https://locationlists.com/find?dataset=ffl-dealer-list

Optional: connect for repeat use or wallet payments:

Read https://locationlists.com/skill.md and follow the instructions to connect LocationLists. Then show me the US Federal Firearms Licensees (FFL) list.

Your assistant will walk you through setup and show you the price before you pay.

For developers

Every step below has a no-connector equivalent: https://locationlists.com/find?dataset=ffl-dealer-list with the same filters as query parameters.

  1. Connect your agent to https://locationlists.com/mcp (no key, no signup).
  2. Call count_locations with dataset: "ffl-dealer-list" and any filter — it is free, and returns how many rows match and what they cost.
  3. Fetch the rows with query_locations: $0.33 per 100 rows from this dataset. Above 37,507 rows, buying the whole file is cheaper.

Paid in USDC over x402 — the agent gets an HTTP 402 with the exact price, signs, and retries. Money moves only after rows are delivered, so a failed or empty query costs nothing. Setup for Claude, Cursor and VS Code

?Frequently Asked Questions

How many Federal Firearms Licensees (FFL) are there in the US?

There are 75,013 Federal Firearms Licensees (FFL) in the US as of October 2026. They are in all 50 states, DC and Puerto Rico. Texas has the most, with 8,099.

Does this include type 03 collectors, who are private individuals at home addresses?

No, and that is the ATF's decision rather than ours. The ATF withholds curio and relic collector licenses from its public listing entirely, so there are zero in the file. Everything here is a licensed business: dealers, pawnbrokers, manufacturers and importers. That means you can use it for prospecting without first filtering out tens of thousands of private homes.

Which license types are which?

Type 01 is a dealer in firearms, the ordinary gun shop and the type most buyers want. 02 is a pawnbroker, 03 a collector (withheld, see above), 06 an ammunition manufacturer, 07 a firearms manufacturer who may also deal, 08 an importer, and 09, 10 and 11 cover destructive devices. Both the raw code and a plain-English label are in the file.

How current is the expiry date?
