How to Buy Online

3 - Select a shipping method. For a limited time, all items, including handguns, ship for only $9.97! 

4a - Choose a payment option. Remember, all of our listed prices on guns are cash discounted prices. This must be in the form of a Certified Check or Money Order for shipped firearms.  Visa, Master Card, Discover and American Express are also acceptable forms of payment but do not qualify for our cash discount. Firearms purchased with credit cards will incur a 3% convenience fee

4b - If you choose to pay with cash at this time, please contact Compact Firearms by phone after you place your order and we will reserve your firearm and make arrangements for the sale.

5 - Confirm order details. Then submit credit card information and click on "Confirm Order" -- your credit card will then be processed  and your order will be submitted! You will receive an order confirmation by email. (Upon order completion or credit card is "authorized" for the funds. We do not actually "capture" the authorization to your card until all or part of your order ships).

6 - If you added accessories to your total purchase order, the accessories will incur a additioinal shipping charge based on weight and will ship separately from your firearm and directly to the shipping address that you indicate on the order.

7 - In order for us to ship your firearm we must first receive a copy of the FFL (Federal Firearms License) of the local dealer that you are having us ship the firearm to. You can obtain this information (or have your dealer send us this information on your behalf) and forward it onto us by email, fax, or post. We cannot ship your firearm until we have received this information and verified your dealers EZ Check status. It is your responsibility to get us this info in a timely manner. Please be sure to reference your name, the firearm(s) you are purchasing, and your order number along with the FFL info on the email, fax, or post -- or we will not be able to match the FFL information with your order.
