BUYING A FIREARM ONLINE; THE ORDER PROCESS EXPLAINED:

 

STEP ONE:


Find the gun you want to buy online at our webstore gun shop / online gun store and add it to your shopping cart and then proceed to checkout.



STEP TWO:


To begin the checkout process. You will need to choose either  in store pickup or  to ship the order. Make your choice and then follow the checkout process. If we are shipping to your dealer, you will choose ship and enter the details of your local licensed dealer. After checkout we will email you instructions to complete the transfer process if needed. We are required to obtain a copy of their license before we can ship. Most major credit and debit cards are accepted.



STEP THREE:


Local pickup:

If you are picking the gun up locally, in Lansing, we will let you know when your order is ready to be picked up and process the transfer. Due to new Michigan laws effective 2/13/24, If you do not have a Michigan CPL and purchased a pistol, you will need to visit your local police department or sheriff office to obtain a 'License to Purchase' before coming to to our shop. You then come to our store and fill out the transfer paperwork, we run a NICS background check, if they give us the OK to proceed you take your new firearm home with you.


Ship to your dealer:

Once we have your dealer's license copy, we will ship it to your dealer and they will contact you once it arrives. Once they let you know it has arrived and it's ready to be transferred, you go to their store (per their instructions) and process the transfer aka pick up your firearm (at this point it's as if you purchased the gun at their store). We only ship to the 50 US states and only items that are lawful to be owned in your state.
