Firearms & Ammunition Compliance Conference: July 22–23, 2026 in Arlington, Virginia

Things are changing fast. The regulatory landscape for firearms import and export is undergoing its most significant transformation in years, and F.A.I.R. is uniquely positioned to put your organization in the room where it happens.

• July 22–23, 2026  |  7:30 AM – 5:00 PM EDT each day

• The Westin Arlington Gateway, 801 North Glebe Road, Arlington, VA 22203

For over 30 years, F.A.I.R. has been the authoritative voice of the firearms and ammunition import/export community, the first trade organization to work with ATF to create a conference dedicated to import/export regulatory matters. As a 501(c)(6) organization, F.A.I.R. builds strong relationships within the U.S. government in a constructive, non-confrontational manner while eliminating bureaucratic inefficiencies that drive up costs for both government and private sector.

This summer, join us in Arlington for two full days of first-hand briefings and frank discussions with ATF, BIS, and DDTC, all focused on the Trump Administration’s most significant regulatory and policy changes affecting your business.

Agencies at the Table

Exclusive Roundtable Sessions

One of F.A.I.R.’s most valued features: small-group, rotating roundtable sessions where attendees sit directly across from agency heads: ATF, FATD, Imports, NFA, BIS, DDTC, and more. No mass Q&A. No bureaucratic filter. Direct access to the people who make the decisions.

WHY F.A.I.R.

F.A.I.R. is the only organization exclusively dedicated to the firearms and ammunition import/export community. Since 1994, F.A.I.R. has engaged Congress, advocated before the United Nations on the Arms Trade Treaty, and worked directly with ATF, U.S. Customs, and the State Department. Recent achievements include:

Special Recognition:  

During the conference, F.A.I.R. will formally present the Chairman Emeritus designation to Charles “Cholly” Steen, F.A.I.R.’s Founding President, in recognition of his foundational leadership since 1994.
