Order online, pick up at a licensed dealer in Clark County. North Las Vegas runs from the old downtown on Las Vegas Boulevard out to Aliante and the Apex industrial district, with Nellis Air Force Base, distribution centres and light manufacturing as the main employers. The city ends where the BLM land and the Las Vegas Range begin.
Pick an FFL dealer near you that accepts shipped transfers and name it at checkout. We confirm their license and ship the firearm to them. Ammunition, optics and parts ship straight to your door where Nevada law allows.
Nevada has no permit to purchase, no firearm registration and no state waiting period. What it does have, since January 2, 2020, is a background check on nearly every transfer: buying from a dealer means photo ID, ATF Form 4473 and a federal NICS check, and two private parties must appear together at a licensed dealer so the dealer can run the check, with narrow exceptions in statute for immediate family and short temporary transfers. Under federal law a dealer sells rifles and shotguns from age 18 and handguns from age 21. Nothing in state law adds a second permit or a second wait.
Dealers in these communities all work for North Las Vegas-area buyers:
Open carry of a handgun needs no license in Nevada for an adult who may lawfully possess one. Carrying concealed requires a Nevada concealed firearm permit, and permits are issued by the sheriff of the county where you live, which in the Las Vegas valley means the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department. Applicants must be 21, or 18 to 20 with active-duty or honorably discharged military service, and must pass a Nevada Sheriffs and Chiefs firearms safety course that includes live fire. A permit runs five years and the sheriff has up to 120 days to decide. Schools, child care property and posted public buildings are off limits.
The Nevada Department of Wildlife sets big-game hunts by hunt unit and hunt code rather than by one statewide season. Mule deer, elk and pronghorn tags are drawn from the annual big-game draw, with applications open from about mid-March to mid-May; the 2026 deadline was May 7. Most any-legal-weapon mule deer hunts fall between October and late November, with earlier archery and muzzleloader hunts and a few late hunts either side. State rules allow a centerfire rifle from .22 through .50 caliber with a case no longer than three inches, and prohibit full metal jacket, steel core and tracer ammunition.
US 95 runs north from the city past Corn Creek and the Desert National Wildlife Refuge, the largest refuge in the lower 48 and the home of the Sheep Range bighorn herd. Refuge hunting is limited and permit driven, so read the refuge rules before planning a trip.
The Clark County Shooting Complex is on the city's northwest edge off Decatur Boulevard, and the BLM ground north of the 215 is closed to shooting inside the county's discharge boundary.
The Nevada Department of Wildlife does not run public shooting ranges, so Nevada's public ranges are county and city facilities; everything else on our list would be a private club, which we leave out. Dispersed shooting on BLM and Forest Service ground is allowed in most of the state but is closed across much of the Las Vegas valley by county ordinance, so check before you drive out.
