Antique & Modern Firearms Regulations
Next to the price you'll notice either an "A" or "M." This stands for "Antique" or "Modern." Antique guns, manufactured during or before 1898, can be shipped directly to the customer. Modern firearms marked "M" must be received by a licensed Federal Firearms Dealer (FFL). Please include a legible signed-in-ink copy of the FFL along with your payment. Most sporting goods shops, pawn shops, gunsmiths and gunshops offer this service for a small fee (approx $20-40).
International Shipments
No returns on items shipped outside the USA. We comply with all regulations on this side of the border, but the buyer is ultimately responsible for making sure the item is cleared with local officials. Unfortunately we do not have the resources to stay current on the local regulations for every part of the world. We do our best to help, but cannot be cannot be responsible for any loss of international shipments or problems clearing customs. In addition, we cannot be responsible for any amount beyond the maximum amount insurable by the shipper.
