PLEASE NOTE: Orders that qualify for free shipping will go to the initial shipping address provided by the customer (or the address on your dealer's FFL if the item is a firearm).

If a package must be redirected, the customer is responsible for charges incurred at a rate of $18 per package.

Due to the nature of the items we sell, our billing address verification (AVS) is very sensitive. If you place an order and do not receive an order number the transaction DID NOT successfully process.

Please contact your financial institution to find out how long they will take to release a pending hold.

Sorry, but at this time, we do not sell or ship outside the United States.
