You should not have been charged sales tax in the other state. You should see if you can get them to refund that amount. If you used a credit card, they might be able to help you.
While you paid, you did not actually buy the firearm (there is a whole discussion on this aspect), and it is being shipped to another business, which is exempt from sales tax. It is only taxable when it is transferred to the end customer.
