State restrictions

Some items can't ship everywhere. Here's how we handle it, and how you'll know before you buy.

Where we ship

  • We ship to the 50 states and Washington, DC.
  • We don't ship to US territories (Puerto Rico, Guam, the US Virgin Islands) or APO/FPO addresses.

Ground-only items

Ammunition and other items that must travel by ground can't ship to Alaska, Hawaii or PO boxes. Use a street address for these.

Items restricted by state or locality

Some items, such as certain magazines and some ammunition, can't be shipped to particular states, cities or counties. Where a restriction applies to part of a state, we currently don't ship that item anywhere in that state.

You'll see a restriction before you pay:

  • On the product page: choose your state and we'll show “Can't ship to [state]” if the item is restricted there.
  • In your cart and at checkout: restricted items are marked with the reason, and you can remove them.

Age requirements

Ammunition is sold to adults 21 and older only. Some items need an adult (21+) signature at delivery.

Your responsibility

Laws change and vary by place. Buyers are responsible for knowing and following the laws where they live. Our restrictions are based on information we keep up to date, but they may not cover every local rule.

Buyers are also responsible for complying with their state and local laws on possessing, carrying and using what they buy, such as limits on knife blade length and how knives may be carried.
