Our OFFICE SCHEDULE including upcoming Gun-shows we will attend (for BUYING purposes only, we no longer take any inventory at all to sell at shows) or days we are otherwise closed and not in the office:

Hint:    if we are away attending a show, other event, or on a buying-trip then we are not in our office taking calls or reading your emails or letters (or able to ship ANYTHING) until our return.

MOST IMPORTANT!

We have a private MAILING LIST  which will get you all new items we acquire e-mailed to you 24 hours in ADVANCE (as well as much other useful information not available elsewhere).

We DO NOT accept PHONE ORDERS!
*ALL* orders must be either e-mailed, FAXed or snail-mailed to us

A FFL MUST BE on-file with us ALREADY before we will accept any order for a post-1898 firearm!  

Federal Firearms Licenses cannot be "sent to us later".   It is a very good idea to send us a signed copy of your (or your local transfer dealer's) FFL in advance for our files to avoid missing out on the item you may want.  This is SOP in the industry. We will accept a FAX of a FFL. We will also NOW accept scanned & emailed copies of your (or your dealers) FFL.

We will not "HOLD" any firearm without a FFL being on-file and payment MUST be made immediately via credit-card or overnighted Money Order.
