none of the stores it is kept in the online warehouse until it is shipped to the local FFL for transfer

Thomas, highly likely the one that actually has your firearm in stock. 90% will be the Lexington KY Store. Cheers and stay safe!

It'll ship to any FFL dealer you want. If the firearms available for layaway add it to your cart, then proceed to checkout, during checkout buds will ask Wich FFL/store you want it shipped to. After you finish paying off buds will then ship it to the FFL of your choosing. So buds online shop will handle everything but the background check/transfer. Hope this helps.

Thomas, on line inventory is separate from store inventory. If you plan on picking up in store, just let Bud's know so they can have it sent to that store (if not already in stock). If you intend to pick up an order from our retail store, please allow 4 business days before attempting pickup. When your order is ready for pickup, you will receive an email informing you that your order has arrived and is available, typically in 4-7 business days. Otherwise, it will be held at Bud's on line inventory warehouse until it is ready to be shipped.

The layaway is handled by Buds, not a store.
