From A&D to NFA: Navigating Firearms Compliance in 2026

The firearms industry continues to evolve—and 2026 is shaping up to be a pivotal year for compliance, legislation, and opportunity. Join a panel of industry experts for an educational session designed to help you understand what’s changing, how the state regulatory landscape is shifting, and what those changes mean for your business—even if your state has not yet enacted new regulations.

This webinar will cover key regulatory updates impacting firearms retailers nationwide, including state-level compliance trends that increasingly influence federal oversight and enforcement. You’ll learn how changes in one state can create ripple effects across the entire country—impacting A&D recordkeeping, electronic 4473 workflows, National Firearms Act (NFA) products, shipping firearms across multiple jurisdictions, and mandated state excise taxes tied to out-of-state transactions.

You’ll also hear where technology plays a critical role in navigating this evolving environment—helping you reduce risk, eliminate manual processes, and maintain accuracy across compliance and tax-related workflows as regulations continue to change at both the state and federal levels.

In addition, we’ll explore how smart diversification can strengthen your margins while keeping compliance front and center. From expanding into high-margin product categories like archery, to capitalizing on 2026 as the “Year of the Suppressor,” you’ll learn how to responsibly broaden your assortment without compromising compliance.

Featured speakers include:

• JC Clark, FFL Consultants
• Travis Glover, 4473 Cloud / Silencer Shop
• Jamison Collins, FastBound
• Gentry Bell, Chattanooga Shooting Supplies
• Michele Salerno, Chief Growth Officer, Celerant
