1. I am placing an order for a firearm and need to enter my FFL information. How do I do this?
1. We pull the FFL’s information straight from their license, so simply leave your own address in. We may already have your FFL’s information on file, so please note the name in the comments box at checkout. If we need a new copy of the FFL, Customer Service will let you know in your confirmation e-mail (sent during regular business hours, M-F, 0800-1700 Eastern).
2. What is needed to show I am eligible for the MIL/LE Pricing?
1. We will request proof of eligibility when we process your order (during regular business hours, M-F 0800-1700 Eastern). Please do not send credentials until they are requested as we do not have a system to store them until an order is placed. Except for military and federal law enforcement, a photo of your ID is usually easiest. Due to federal law, we cannot accept copies of military and federal law enforcement ID’s. For military and federal LE, we have an affidavit you can fill out, sign and return (Sent after your order is processed). For disabled veterans, we can accept VA cards with the “service connected” endorsement. 2. Manufacture Requirements

1. Obviously, there's some kind of technical glitch. We work hard to ensure information on the site is correct, but stuff happens and things break sometimes. Look, we're cool, and with coupon codes and whatnot, there are deals to be found where we might be a bit upside down on an item. No big deal- we usually let it go. Still, we reserve the right to cancel any order placed on the site.

1. For states with magazines restrictions (for non LEO) we will be happy to offer a magazine swap to accommodate, when such magazine is available. Due to variances in manufacturer’s items, any firearm with a magazine swap may result in an unmatched base plate(s), most of the magazines swaps will end up with a black base plate. Please contact us if you have questions on a specific firearm that will need a magazine swap. 2. If you state requires a magazine swap, please proceed with the order as usual and notate that you need a substituted magazine. We will process the order and the magazine swap will be confirmed on the follow up work order from customer service.
