Why We Started
FFLSafe
As a firearms attorney who’s helped hundreds of FFLs fight the ATF, I’ve seen firsthand how flawed most FFL software is. It’s too complicated, requires workarounds to stay fully compliant, and is often prohibitively expensive. On top of that, the high cost creates a false sense of security, leaving FFLs vulnerable to mistakes.
To fix this, we created the simplest, most compliant FFL software on the market. If software isn’t intuitive, mistakes are inevitable—and you won’t even know they’re happening. That’s why we built our software to be easy to use. And because we believe compliance shouldn’t come with a hefty price tag, we made it 100% free.
How can it be free? Great question – we offer a subscription-based ATF compliance training program that includes multiple courses (we think they’re the best, too) and includes many extras like live monthly Q&A sessions with firearm industry experts.
Because, at FFL Safe, we’re focused on creating a simple, reliable product that just works, without the clutter.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to our most common questions about FFLSafe
How is FFLSafe free?
The FFLSafe Bound Book and e4473 are completely free and there is no hidden fee nor trial anywhere. We made it free because most FFLs do not need to pay hundreds of dollars a year maintaining their records. Instead, because of our paid Compliance Course Membership, we’re able to maintain and improve the software without charging you!
Can I Transfer to FFLSafe from Other Software?
Yes, transferrring to FFLSafe from otehr software is easy – you can be up and running on our simple, clean, and free bound book solution in a few minutes. We’ve made a guide for you that walks you through each step of the process, including using our fast Bound Book Import tool: Migrating/Switching to FFLSafe
Is FFLSafe ATF Compliant?
Yes, FFLSafe is 100% ATF compliant. In fact, we think that it is the MOST compliant software available. FFLSafe was made, from the ground up, by an actual firearms attorney and an ATF compliance expert – this means that every piece of the software, not just the parts you see, has been built to meet and exceed all ATF rulings and regulations.
What Makes FFLSafe Different?
FFLSafe is the most robust (technically strong) and simple (practically easy) software for FFLs.
FFLSafe is the newest solution on the block and that’s a GREAT thing! This means that we aren’t burdened by a system that was built on old technology from years ago. Instead, FFLSafe is a state-of-the-art software solution and system that is strong and safe.
If you’ve ever heard the quote “I didn’t have time to write you a short note so I wrote you a long letter instead,” then you’ll understand the significant work we put into FFLSafe to make it so simple and intuitive to use. It’s easy to add yet another sub-menu item or settings option for software developers, that’s why software (especially older software) can be real clunky and complicated to use. We spent a lot of time making sure that every action in FFLSafe is completed with as few “clicks” as possible and is presented in a clean and intuitive way.
How are Record Backups Handled?
The ATF requires a downloaded copy of all internet/cloud-based records every 24 hours. Most software solutions require a compliacted workaround and third party storage, however, FFLSafe has a free downloader tool that automatically backs up your records to your computer every day.
What Does the ATF Compliance Course Membership Include?
Simply, the ATF Compliance Course Membership includes everything you need to stay out of trouble with the ATF. It also includes tips and tricks and best-practices to run your FFL efficiently – but none of that matters if the ATF is coming after you.
The membership includes access to courses to teach you how to do everything the right way – they don’t just include what the laws and rules are, they show you how they’re applied. For example, our A&D Book course teaches you everything you need to know about your Bound Book (from making entires to auditing and more) and our 4473 course walks you thorugh everything about the 4473 and includes an exam at the end that helps you spot errors on 4473s.
The membership also includes monthly live Q&As with firearms attorneys and ATF experts and resources and guides to help you operate efficiently.
Which FFL types work with FFLSafe?
FFLSafe is a bound book for firearm business FFLs – this means that it does not work with the Type 03 collector’s FFL (non-buiness) nor the Type 06 Ammunition Manufacturer’s FFL (non-firearm).
FFLSafe does, however, work with every FFL type for firearms businesses:
- Type 01 FFL – Firearm Dealer/Gunsmith
- Type 02 FFL – Firearm Dealer/Pawnbroker
- Type 07 FFL – Firearm and Ammunition Manufacturer
- Type 08 FFL – Firearm Importer
- Type 09 FFL – Dealer of Firearms (including AP Ammo and “Desctructive Devices”)
- Type 10 FFL – Manufactuer of Firearms and Ammo (including AP Ammo and “Desctructive Devices”)
- Type 11 FFL – Importer of Firearms (including AP Ammo and “Desctructive Devices”)
This is, in part, because FFLSafe automatically checks the validity of an FFL number for every transaction with the ATF’s FFL EzCheck system and Type 03 and Type 06 FFLs are not included in that system. Also, no firearms may be transferred to or from a Type 06 FFL (ammunition manufacturing only) and the vast majority of firearms may not be trasnfered to a Type 03 Collector’s FFL (except for “Curios and Relics).
