GENERAL FIREARM SALES
All firearms, magazines, receivers, and restricted law enforcement items are sold and shipped in accordance with all existing federal, state and local laws and regulations. Many of the firearms, magazines and parts for sale on this website may be restricted or prohibited in your area. Please check your local and state regulations before ordering.
All new firearms are shipped in the original manufacturer's box, with magazine(s), accessories, and applicable warranty. All firearm sales are final. Firearms requiring warranty work must be returned to the factory for all warranty repairs. Accessories and special order items not normally sold by our store will not be covered under warranty even if these products are part of an integrated firearms package, unless we have guaranteed the entire package in writing. Please contact the original manufacturer for warranty information on all accessories and special order items.
PURCHASING FIREARMS ONLINE
It is illegal to ship firearms to anyone not holding an active Federal Firearms License (FFL). For that reason, firearms purchased online may picked up at our store or shipped to an FFL (gun store) near you. We may contact and verify the FFL Dealer you select during checkout before we ship your firearm(s). The buyer is encouraged to contact the receiving FFL License Dealer before purchase.
CHANGING, MODIFYING, SUBSTITUTING ORDERS
We like to serve our customers best as possible, and we understand that mistakes can happen. If you have placed an existing order and want to change it, we can help you with that. The process is as follows: orders that need modified will be cancelled and the customer will be refunded the full amount minus a $10 charge via gift card. Once the customer receives the refund, they can replace the order on the website. The Gunologist WILL NOT place the order for the customer due to fraud and sensitive information that gets exchanged in transactions. At this point the transaction lead times have restarted.
RETURNS & CANCELED ORDERS
All canceled and returned orders will be charged a 15% restocking fee. All sales are final, including firearms, ammunition, and optics. Any order that surpasses 21 days and we have not received the requested documents for your order. Your order will be canceled, and funds returned minus the 15% restocking fee.
ORDER FULFILLMENT
All orders are shipped promptly from our distributors warehouse or in-store inventory within 3 - 10 business days using UPS, FedEx, or USPS. Tracking numbers are available for items shipped via UPS and FedEx. Our Flat rate shipping policy only qualifies for the 48 states. We currently do not offer shipping outside the 48 states and international. If an order is placed outside of the stated perimeters, it will be cancelled and issued a restock fee. Orders cannot be processed and will be flagged as fraud if the billing and shipping address DO NOT match. Orders will then be replaced via gift card to place the order correctly. If an order is for a serialized item or firearm the system will dictate it as such and it will be sent to the chosen FFL Dealer. DO NOT put the FFL Dealer as the shipping address.
AMMUNITION PURCHASES
You must be 18 or older to purchase rifle or shotgun ammunition and 21 or older to purchase handgun ammunition. All ammunition will be shipped ground with adult signature required and sales on these items are final. Always make sure to use the correct ammunition for your specific firearms. Check your local laws for any other regulations. Customers are responsible and must follow all local, state and federal laws. Please research before ordering if you are unsure about your local laws.
