INFORMATION ABOUT US

The platform promotes responsible gun ownership as its core value. GunSwap.Pk offers a safe, trustworthy, and transparent online environment for individuals to find firearms and related accessories.

Both the buyer and seller must ensure that transfers of regulated items are conducted exclusively through licensed firearms dealers acting as transfer agents, thereby ensuring legality and accountability.
LEGAL ISSUES BUYING AND SELLING FIREARMS
A federal firearms license (issued by the Ministry of Interior) or a provincial arms license is required to carry and possess firearms.
Before proceeding with the transfer of the firearm, buyers must ensure that they possess either an unutilized/empty license or apply for a fresh license from the licensing authority. In order to facilitate the transfer, it is necessary for the buyer to establish contact with a local arms dealer and coordinate the necessary arrangements.
Accessories like holsters, clips, sights, scopes, etc., do not need a license. Non-firearm items like air guns, knives, and certain gun parts also do not need to be transferred by a licensed dealer.
Please review the Pakistan Arms Ordinance, 1965 about transferring ownership of firearms to unlicensed persons: https://www.gunswap.pk/public/assets/custom/pakistan_arms_ordinance_1965.pdf.
