  •  If the customer fails the background check or is denied for any reason is it there responsibility to arrange return and refund. In the rare instance that the customer is unable to arrange return of firearms, RS Shooting Sports has the option to sell the firearm at a price we determine. a 35% commission will be charged. The customer may not have any influence over locating new buyers, this is to avoid a straw purchase.

  • If the sender/seller is not a FFL holder, they can verify our FFL by entering the first three(8-52) and the last five (14437) digits of our FFL number at the ATF's EZ Check website.
  • If the sender/seller is not a FFL holder, they must include a photocopy of their unexpired state issued identification card, contact phone number/email, and the customer's contact information(name and phone number at a minimum).
