How To Buy A Pistol or Rifle Online

Federal firearms laws prevent the sale of a weapon from Impact directly to an individual in another state (we are located in Colorado). We must ship your firearm directly to an FFL Dealer near you. The steps to follow are:

  1. Order your firearm online using our secure shopping cart. If you know the dealer you are going to use at time of order placement (not a requirement) enter his name into the 'Ship To' field.
  2. Find a dealer near you that will accept the transfer of the firearm for you. Most sporting goods stores and pawn shops will provide this service for a small fee. Also, gun clubs, shooting ranges, etc. may provide this service to you. You must confirm the transfer and any associated fees with your local dealer in advance.
  3. Next, have the dealer get us a copy of his signed license. Please Note: It is now legal for us to accept a faxed copy of your dealers license! Print out this coversheet, fill it out and give it to your dealer to fax with his license.
  4. Make sure the dealer knows the firearm is coming from us.
  5. We will send you an email when the firearm ships, which will include a tracking number.

To Order Handgun Ammo

FAX or mail a copy of your ID, showing your age, and a signed statement that reads "I am over 21 and there are no laws prohibiting me from owning ammo." Rifle ammo can be shipped to the billing address of the credit card without an AMMO statement.
- A faxed FFL is acceptable.
- No AMMO SALES to AK, HI or MA or to a PO box.
- Heavy or bulky items will have an extra shipping charge added.

Terms and Conditions

1. I am over 21.
2. I am not prohibited from legally purchasing/possessing any of the following products that may be in my cart:
Ammunition: Blackpowder guns, airguns, replica guns, airsoft guns or blowguns
Knives or bayonets: Lock-picking equipment, pepper spray, brass knuckles, slaps, stun guns, or gloves with steel-shot knuckles along with High-capacity magazines.
3. I understand that discharging, cleaning, or handling ammo and/or firearms may cause exposure to lead.

We will not ship firearms directly to you. They will be sent to your local FFL (Federal Firearms License) Dealer, who will then perform any background checks and paperwork required in your state/locality. We do not ship firearms to non-FFL holders. This is federal law. It is your responsibility to contact the FFL Dealer to make sure of their policies, procedures, and any applicable fees they might charge.

Nearly all dealers will accept a transfer for you. They will perform all the required background checks and paperwork for your area, and charge a transfer fee of around $25.00 - $50.00. If we already have your dealer's license (FFL) on file, there is no need to resend it with each order.

It is important to make sure that your name or order number is with the dealer's license so that we know to apply it to your order.
