Our online inventory changes every day. Occasionally an item may appear on the site by mistake or the item’s description may contain a typographical error. We do not guarantee that titles, descriptions, pictures or prices on our site are error-free. We reserve the right to refuse any order including but not limited to orders for items with errors in the description or price.

If the order is mistakenly shipped, we may advise the customer to return the item in an unopened condition and we will refund the customer. By placing an order, the customer agrees that Elk River Guns will be the final arbiter of discrepancies in the online catalog.

The seller provides all descriptions for used items. All descriptions for used items are honest and based on actual items being offered for sale. Items being sold in this manner will be marked as such. All sales on used items are final. Photos will be provided when available. All machine guns are considered used unless otherwise noted.

All firearms, magazines, receivers and restricted law enforcement items are sold and shipped in accordance with all existing federal, state and local laws and regulations. Many of the firearms, magazines and parts for sale on this website may be restricted or prohibited in your area. Please check your local and state regulations before ordering. You must be 18 or older to purchase a long gun and 21 or older to purchase a handgun per ATF rules, but state and local laws may differ and you will need to check your local laws before purchasing a firearm.

All new firearms are shipped in the original manufacturer’s box, with magazine(s), accessories and applicable warranty. Firearms requiring warranty work must be returned to the factory within 1 year of purchase for repair. Accessories and special order items not normally sold by our store will not be covered under warranty even if these products are part of an integrated firearms package, unless we have guaranteed the entire package in writing. Please contact the original manufacturer for warranty information on all accessories and special order items.

New firearms sold via the website are shipped to our physical store first for a quality inspection by our trained staff. If desired, we can further ship the firearm to an Federal Firearms Licensed Dealer near you, or you can pick up your firearm in our store. Once the firearm has been transferred to you the firearm is subject to our In Store Firearm Return Policy and, if fired or in a used condition or without all original packaging, our Used Firearm Purchase Policy.

All orders except for firearms, ammunition or NFA items are either shipped promptly from our warehouse or in-store inventory within 3 – 10 business days using UPS, FedEx, or USPS. Tracking numbers are available for items shipped via UPS and FedEx

You must be 18 or older to purchase rifle or shotgun ammunition and 21 or older to purchase handgun ammunition. All ammunition will be shipped ground with adult signature required. Always make sure to use the correct ammunition for your specific firearms. Check your local laws for any other regulations. *All ammunition sales will comply with local and state laws and will not be shipped to any restricted areas.*

When an order is placed for physical merchandise, it will be shipped to an address designated by you as long as that shipping address is compliant with State and Federal regulations and the shipping restrictions imposed by our chosen shipping carrier. All purchases from the Site are made pursuant to shipment conditions, by accepting these terms and conditions through your use of the Site. You are responsible for contacting Customer Service  here regarding any claims for damaged and/or lost shipments.

All gun and lower receiver sales are final, in accordance with industry standards. 

Once your purchase is transferred to you and leaves the store or the location of the transfer FFL if you asked us to ship to, the sale is final and the item cannot be returned.

Please make sure you thoroughly inspect any gun you purchase and if you are concerned that a gun may have a defect, do not accept delivery at the store, or the transfer FFL.

If, after purchasing your gun or lower receiver, you determine that the item may be defective you will need to work with the manufacturer of the item to have it repaired or exchanged.

Because of the nature of these items, unless they arrive damaged or defective, we can’t accept returns for:
Custom or personalized orders
Ammunition
NFA items
Special orders
Clearance items
Digital downloads
Products sold “as is” or used, or that have been installed and/or used after receipt.
