You're going to have to post the actual site in question, for starters.

And Paypal refuses to let you use their service for firearms and firearm-related purchases. You might be able to get one past them, but that's about it (before you're warned, suspended, or banned).

You send them a postal money order or certified check, etc. and a copy of your local gun dealers FFL and they then ship the shotgun by USPS, UPS or FedEx to your local gun dealer. You then fill out the 4473, they call it in (NICS), you pay the transfer fee and as long as you're a good guy you get to take it home.
This assumes you don't have any additional local hoops to jump thru...

FFL's are increasingly refusing to send copies of their licenses to private parties. You might just get an FFL number and then look it up on EZ Check (ATF) to ensure it is valid.
