At Guns and Glocks Depot, we take pride in offering fast, reliable, and secure shipping for all firearms, ammunition, and accessories. We understand that you want your purchases to arrive quickly and safely, and we’ve designed our shipping process to ensure that your order is handled with the utmost care and complies with all legal requirements.
Shipping Firearms
All firearms purchased online must be shipped to a licensed Federal Firearms License (FFL) dealer. Here’s how it works:
FFL Dealer Selection:
When purchasing a firearm, you will need to select an FFL dealer to receive your order. We offer an FFL dealer locator tool to help you find one near you, or you can provide the information of a preferred dealer.
Processing Time:
Once you place your order, we typically process and ship in-stock items within 1-2 business days. You’ll receive a confirmation email with a tracking number so you can monitor your shipment.
Shipping to FFL Dealer:
Firearms cannot be shipped directly to your home; they must go to the FFL dealer you selected. When your firearm arrives at the dealer, they will contact you to arrange for pick-up after completing a background check and necessary paperwork.
FFL Transfer Fees:
Most FFL dealers charge a fee (typically $25-$50) to process the transfer of your firearm. This fee is paid directly to the dealer when you pick up your gun.
Shipping Ammunition and Accessories
For ammunition and accessories (holsters, magazines, scopes, etc.), the process is more straightforward:
Direct Shipping:
These items can be shipped directly to your home or preferred address (where permitted by law). However, be sure to check local and state laws regarding ammunition shipments.
Packaging and Handling: We carefully package all items to ensure they arrive safely and in excellent condition.
Delivery Time:
Most accessory and ammunition orders are processed and shipped within 1-2 business days, with delivery times depending on your location and the shipping method selected at checkout.
Shipping Restrictions
Certain items may have legal restrictions depending on your location:
State and Local Laws:
Firearms, ammunition, and certain accessories may be restricted in certain states or municipalities. Please review your local laws before placing an order. If your state prohibits shipping an item, we will notify you and discuss alternative options or a refund.
Age Restrictions: You must be 18 years or older to purchase a long gun (rifle or shotgun) and 21 years or older to purchase a handgun or handgun ammunition.
International Shipping: At this time, we only ship firearms and ammunition within the United States.
Tracking Your Order
Once your order is processed and shipped, you will receive a tracking number via email. This allows you to track your shipment and know exactly when it will arrive. For firearms, this tracking number will show when your item has reached your chosen FFL dealer.
Shipping Fees
Shipping fees are calculated based on the weight, size, and destination of your order. During the checkout process, you will see the total shipping costs before finalizing your purchase.
