Order online, pick up at a licensed dealer in Clark County. Las Vegas fills a desert basin ringed by the Spring Mountains, Frenchman Mountain and the Sheep Range, with Lake Mead and Red Rock both half an hour from the Strip. Orders ship to dealers across the valley from Summerlin to Henderson.
Pick an FFL dealer near you that accepts shipped transfers and name it at checkout. We confirm their license and ship the firearm to them. Ammunition, optics and parts ship straight to your door where Nevada law allows.
Nevada has no purchase permit, no registration and no waiting period, but it is a point-of-contact state: dealers submit the background check to the Nevada Department of Public Safety records division rather than to the federal system directly, which lets the state search Nevada criminal history as well as national records. There is a small fee for each check. Nevada also requires a background check on most private transfers. Federal age rules apply at the dealer, and an online order ships to the Nevada dealer you choose.
Dealers in these communities all work for Las Vegas-area buyers:
Nevada allows permitless open carry, and concealed carry requires a Nevada concealed firearm permit, which the sheriff of your home county issues. Applicants must be at least twenty-one and complete an approved course that includes live fire. Clark County has additional local rules, including an ordinance restricting shooting near roads, trails and campgrounds in unincorporated areas. Casinos and other private property can prohibit firearms, and posted notices are enforced.
Nevada big game is a draw state. Mule deer tags are allocated through the main big game draw, with applications generally running from mid-March to mid-May and results at the end of May or early June, and antlered rifle seasons for many unit groups falling in the first half of November. Archery and muzzleloader hunts have their own dates and tag pools. Leftover tags are offered after the draw. Read the current Nevada Big Game Seasons and Applications publication for your unit group.
Clark County mule deer live high in the Spring Mountains and the Sheep Range, and tags come through the Nevada draw rather than over the counter. Most Las Vegas hunters apply for units north of the valley and hunt in November.
Clark County closed most of the valley floor to recreational target shooting, so shooters use the organised ranges and the public land well outside the built-up area.
Every range below is operated or published by a state wildlife agency, a state forest or the Forest Service near the cities we serve. Most need a hunting licence, a range permit or a small day fee, and seasonal hours change without much notice, so check the agency page before you drive out.

Yes. Order here, name a licensed FFL dealer in Henderson, North Las Vegas, Paradise, Las Vegas or anywhere in Clark County, and we ship the firearm to them. You fill out ATF Form 4473 at their counter and they run the background check.
The Nevada Department of Public Safety records division acts as the point of contact, so the dealer submits the check to the state rather than to the federal system. A small fee applies.
Yes. Concealed carry requires a Nevada concealed firearm permit from the county sheriff, with an approved course including live fire. Open carry does not require a permit.
Through the Nevada Department of Wildlife big game draw, with applications in spring and results at the end of May or early June. Leftover tags are sold afterwards.
A compact or mid-size 9mm pistol for the range and home, or a pump shotgun if storage allows it. Work out where you can legally shoot and how your state expects a firearm to be transported before you choose.
Each dealer sets its own fee, commonly $20 to $75. Call before you order to confirm the price and that they accept firearms shipped from an online store.
