Current shipping costs range from $7.50 - $13.00 on all non-firearm purchases, and are $25.00 on firearm purchases (shipping fees may vary on orders placed over the telephone or fax and can increase due to size and weight). Due to recent fuel surcharges, UPS Next Day Air rates begin at $40.00 per shipment and may increase depending upon package size and weight. UPS Second Day Air shipment rates start at $27.00 and can also increase once the package is boxed and weighed. All Federal Firearm License laws apply when purchasing a firearm. Anyone desiring to purchase a firearm must be able to pass a background check (Click here for the ATF web site for more information). There are age limits on the sale of certain items. And certain types of items are illegal in certain places - for example 'assault weapons' cannot be sold in California and certain types of ammunition are illegal in certain states and cities. The NRA also has put together a terrific state-by-state gun laws guide. The ATF has compiled information on the various state laws; click here to view this information. Again, it is your responsibility to make sure that you comply with the laws of your country, city, and state. We do not tolerate attempted illegal activity here!   You do not have to be a licensed dealer to buy a firearm. If you are not a licensed dealer (also called an FFL Holder), you must make arrangements with an FFL holder in your state to receive the item and transfer it to you. (Note to C&R holders: if you are a C&R holder you already know the Byzantine C&R rules so we will not repeat them here). Virtually anyone who is involved in the sale or distribution of firearms is an FFL holder, including gun shops. You must make arrangements with your FFL holder to receive any firearm, receiver, or any other item described by the ATF as a firearm. For most firearms, the buyer must be able to pass a background check.   Non-firearm items, such as air guns, knives, ammunition, antique guns that were built in 1898 or earlier, accessories, barrels, and most gun parts do not require transfer by a licensed dealer. There are age restrictions on many of these items, and you will be asked to verify your age to the seller (typically by mailing, faxing, or emailing a copy of your driver's license) before you can purchase the item. In general, you must be 18 years old to buy firearm related items on this site. To buy Pistol ammunition, you must be at least 21 years old; at least 18 years old for Rifle ammunition. No age restrictions are placed on items such as hats, gloves, apparel, books, cases, bag, and pouches.   If you have any questions or doubts about whether an item can be shipped to you, please contact us.   Browsing and Searching MidwestGunWorks.com There are two ways to shop for items on MidwestGunWorks.com: Browsing and Searching.   Browsing - Our home page contains a list of item categories along the left hand side.
