Shipping Policy

All prices subject to change without notice!

Stolen Shipments

It is the customers responsiblity to keep your delivered shipments from being stolen from your property. Once delivererd it is the property of the purchaser. If your shipment from Buffalo Arms Co. is stolen from your property after delivery you will need to file a police report and file a claim with your insurance company.

Selecting the correct shipping method for your shipment.

Selecting a shipping method that is best suited to your shipment is very important. Not all items can ship using all methods. In addition flat rate shipping has box size limitations. This means not every order can fit in a flat rate box. If the shipping method the customer chooses for his or her shipment is not viable for the order, Buffalo Arms reserves the right to choose a more suitable shipping method.

Some shipping carriers are now charging $50 for refused shipments, The customer will be held responsible for this fee. Carriers are charging us $20 for change of addresses so if you change your shipping address after a package is shipped there is a $20 fee.

Foreign Orders

If your order has brass, bullets, guns, gun parts or any item that can not be shipped without an export permit we will automatically remove these from the order and ship the balance with out contacting you. Shotgun hulls are excluded from these regulations.

Duties and taxes may apply to your order and are paid by the customer. We have no control over the amount of duties and taxes your country charges you.

Due to the additional time it takes to put together an international shipment there is a $2 per package handling fee on each foreign order. If the country we are shipping to does not allow us to fully insure the parcel and in the unlikely event of a parcel being lost or damaged then it is the customer's loss. This has never happened but you should be aware of the possibility.

If for any reason your package is returned to us by the shipping company the customer will have to pay for all shipping charges. We will ship Global Express Mail or FedEx International Express to all foreign countries. We may select the best method of shipment. Calculated shipping prices shown on the web when ordering are not always accurate for any foreign countries. 

In regards to International Shipping Quotes: We have tried many times in the past to give our international customers an accurate shipping quote, but due to the complexities of international shipping we are unable to provide our shipping cost until after we process the order and charge the customer.

Firearms, barrels, projectiles, and conversion cylinders can be exported through one of our exporters. Due to current regulations the fee charged for export service typically runs $450 and up for one shipment.
