Orchid NASGW Booth

Hartford, CT – Orchid, the leader in FFL technology, payment processing, and firearm and explosives compliance services, proudly announces its participation in the upcoming NASGW Expo, scheduled to take place from October 24-27, 2023, in Columbus, Ohio.

Exhibiting at booth #187, Orchid’s leadership team cordially invites FFLs to schedule private meetings on the following solutions:

  • Orchid eState Compliance Software: The one-of-a-kind legislative research application adds real-time, API-driven product restrictions via a zip code and over 30,000 firearm UPCs. Ideal for manufacturing and distribution FFLs who sell out of state via an ERP or eCommerce platform. All NASGW wholesalers are provided no-cost access to the baseline product.
  • ERP Technology and Integrations: A wide range of solutions for firearm manufacturing and distribution FFLs who seek a modern B2B / B2C eCommerce platform, FFL-specific ERP solutions and laser integration technology.
  • Retail and eCommerce Technology: Integrated with multiple NASGW distributors, Orchid’s cloud-based Point-of-Sale and eCommerce solution offers a complete solution for single and multi-store firearm dealers.
  • ATF, Import and Export Solutions: Offering the highest level of FFL protection and regulatory expertise under one roof. Our team has processed over $300m in exports, 50,000+ 4473s per month while achieving a 100% ATF revocation defense success rate. Solutions include recurring service packages, on-call solutions and attorney backed A&D solutions.
  • Firearm Friendly Merchant Processing: Stand-alone or technology-integrated solutions exist, offering industry-low pricing without the threat of hidden price increases or anti-gun bias. Relied upon by major FFLs seeking material savings and protection.

The official text is at 91 FR 24357, Federal Register Volume 91, Issue 87 (May 6, 2026), pages 24357–24362. The docket is also open for comment at regulations.gov (Docket ATF-2026-0009) through midnight Eastern on June 5, 2026. This rule is part of ATF’s broader New Era of Reform package announced earlier this spring — see Orchid’s previous coverage of the Trump DOJ / ATF rule reforms for FFLs.

Unlike many publications on the Federal Register, this change was posted as a Direct Final Rule, making it immediately effective August 4, 2026 without a separate notice-for-comment cycle — unless significant adverse comments are received by June 5.

 

What Didn’t Change?

Permitting FFLs to verify a transferee’s license via ATF eZ Check does not eliminate the regulatory mandate to actually verify the transferee’s license prior to a firearm transfer. The change is in the method of verification — not whether verification is required.

 

Orchid Customers Already Benefit

Orchid eBound, POS, and eCommerce have integrated directly with ATF FFL eZ Check for years. Every FFL transfer routed through your account is already being validated against ATF’s live data — no separate window, no PDF chasing, no manual license-number lookup. This is the same architecture that helped Orchid stay compliant through the ATF Ruling 2021R-05 changes and powers Orchid’s ATF Transaction Advisory Program for retail dealers.

For higher-volume transferors — manufacturers, distributors, and ERP-driven FFLs — our eFFL API delivers FFL and Letter of Authorization (LOA) data directly into the systems where your team actually works. The eFFL API is in production at customers running BSP NetSuite, Epicor, Infor, and other major ERPs, and is widely used inside eCommerce checkout flows to geo-select valid FFL ship-to destinations. See, for example, Prudent American’s launch with Orchid eBound, eSerial, eFFL API and the BSP NetSuite Firearms Edition (part of the JJE Capital Holdings family, alongside Palmetto State Armory).
