Promoting the sale of regulated goods and services, including firearms
If your photos or videos are promoting the sale of regulated goods or services, including firearms, alcohol, tobacco, prescription drugs, and adult products, please ensure that you know and are following the law that applies to you.
Laws on regulated goods may differ greatly by country and state. For example, in the US, the private sale of firearms is generally restricted to sales between residents of the same state and certain categories of people are prohibited from purchasing firearms. Learn more from The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
In the US, some states require a background check for the private sale of a firearm. Even if you do not live in such a state, a background check for safety purposes may be performed before completing the private sale of a firearm.
