Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 9:50 pm

Yes, you can sell guns on WooCommerce. You will need to use a plugin to do so, as WooCommerce does not have built-in functionality for selling guns.

There are a few different plugins you can choose from, but we recommend using the WooCommerce Gun Sales plugin. This plugin will add the necessary functionality to your WooCommerce site to sell guns.

Once you have installed and activated the plugin, you will need to configure it. The first thing you will need to do is set up the payment gateway. The plugin supports PayPal and Stripe, so you will need to choose one of those and enter your credentials.

Next, you will need to set up your shipping options. The plugin supports UPS, FedEx, and USPS. You will need to enter your shipping rates for each carrier.

Now that you have the plugin configured, you can start adding products. To add a gun product, you will first need to create a product category for guns.

PRO TIP: Can You Sell Guns on WooCommerce?

It is not advisable to sell guns on WooCommerce as it is not allowed per the terms of service. Additionally, there are risks involved in selling guns online as there is no way to verify the buyer’s identity or age.

To do this, go to Products > Categories and create a new category. Give it a name and slug (we recommend something like “Guns” or “Firearms”). Then, select the “Gun” product type from the drop-down menu.

Now that you have created a category for your gun products, you can start adding products. Go to Products > Add New and select the “Gun” product type.

Enter the product name, description, price, and other details. You can also upload an image of the product. If you want to offer different variations of the product (such as different calibers or finishes), you can do so by clicking on the “Attributes” tab and adding the desired attributes.

Once you have added all the products you want to sell, you can start taking orders! Customers can purchase products from your WooCommerce store just like they would any other online store.

The only difference is that they will be prompted to enter their gun license information during checkout. This information will be used to verify that they are legally allowed to purchase firearms in their state/jurisdiction.

So there you have it! You can sell guns on WooCommerce using the WooCommerce Gun Sales plugin. This plugin makes it easy to take orders and sell firearms online.
