I always track the firearm using the tracking number buds will provide once it ships. The FFL dealer will contact you though upon it's arrival. Hope this helps.

Greg, the local FFL Dealer that you select upon purchasing will be sent your shotgun and contact information. Buds will also provide you tracking information so you can track as well. The FFL will contact you when the shotgun is ready for pickup. Cheers and stay safe!

Greg, you will get an email notification from UPS once your gun arrives at your FFL. Some FFL's will call you when it arrives, others you have to call them to make arrangements to come in for the transfer. It all depends on the individual FFL. You can call your FFL before you place your order to see exactly how they operate. It is always a good idea to call them first, so they will know you have a gun coming. Have a great day!
