Industry experts will join for an upcoming educational webinar to help firearms retailers understand the evolving compliance landscape and the regulatory changes shaping 2026.
Titled "From A&D to NFA: Navigating Firearms Compliance in 2026," the webinar will take place on March 12, 2026, at 1:00 PM ET and will cover key regulatory updates impacting firearms retailers nationwide.
The session will explore how shifting state regulations are influencing federal oversight and enforcement, including impacts on A&D recordkeeping, electronic 4473 workflows, National Firearms Act (NFA) products, shipping firearms across multiple jurisdictions, and state excise taxes tied to out-of-state transactions.
Panelists will also discuss how technology can help dealers streamline compliance processes, reduce risk, and adapt to regulatory changes, while identifying opportunities to diversify product offerings responsibly. The discussion will include insights on expanding into high-margin categories such as archery, as well as the growing opportunity around suppressors in what many are calling the "Year of the Suppressor."
Featured speakers include:
• JC Clark, FFL Consultants
• Travis Glover, 4473 Cloud / Silencer Shop
• Jamison Collins, FastBound
• Gentry Bell, Chattanooga Shooting Supplies
• Michele Salerno, Celerant Technology
"This year is bringing meaningful changes to how firearms retailers must approach compliance," said Michele Salerno, CGO of Celerant. "Our goal is to provide dealers with clear guidance from industry experts so they can understand what's changing, stay compliant, and continue growing their business."
The webinar is designed for FFL owners, operators, compliance managers, and retail leaders preparing for regulatory shifts that will impact the firearms retail industry.
