HOW TO BUY A GUN ONLINE
Last updated: October 2026
Buying a Firearm Online Is Easy
Buying a firearm online is simple. Choose your firearm, complete your purchase, and have it shipped to a licensed firearms dealer (FFL) near you. Your dealer will handle the required paperwork and background check before transferring the firearm to you, in accordance with applicable laws.
All firearms we sell are brand new from the manufacturer.
The Process: Buying a Firearm Online
Step 1: Choose Your Firearm
Browse our selection of rifles, pistols and SuperStacks. Add your preferred firearm to your cart and double-check the product details and UPC to ensure you're ordering the correct item.
Step 2: Complete Your Purchase
Purchase your firearm through our website and select a receiving FFL dealer at checkout. All firearms must be shipped to a licensed firearms dealer for transfer.

Step 3: Confirm Your FFL Dealer
Before choosing a dealer, confirm they accept incoming firearm shipments, including drop-ship transfers. Ask about their current address, hours, policies, and transfer fees.
We need a valid, readable copy of the receiving dealer's license before shipping. If we don't receive the required documentation within five business days, your order may be canceled and refunded, and a cancellation fee may apply under our store policies.
Step 4: We Ship Your Firearm
Once the required documentation is verified, we'll ship your firearm and send tracking information.
Firearms may ship directly from us or from our suppliers, so multiple items in one order may arrive separately. We select the shipping carrier based on the shipment and cannot guarantee a specific carrier.
Your receiving dealer will need time to check in the shipment and prepare your transfer. They will typically contact you when your firearm is ready for pickup. Please allow a day or two after delivery for processing.
Step 5: Complete Your Transfer and Pick Up Your Firearm
Visit your receiving dealer when your firearm is ready. Inspect the firearm, pay the dealer's transfer fee, and complete the required paperwork and background check before taking possession, subject to applicable laws.
Transfer fees are set by the receiving dealer and are paid separately from your purchase. They commonly range from $20–$50 but vary by dealer.
Before using your new firearm, read the manufacturer's manual and follow its instructions for safe handling, cleaning, lubrication, and storage.
Important Purchase Policies
All firearm sales are final.
Once a firearm has been transferred to you, we do not accept returns. If you discover a defect, blemish, or other issue after the transfer, contact the manufacturer directly regarding warranty coverage, repairs, or replacement options.
