FFL Policies

Firearm Shipments

WE SHIP ONLY TO VALID FFL DEALERS.

When ordering compliance items the customer MUST provide DRM with a valid FFL for shipping. The customer shall enter the shipping address for their FFL in the Ship To A Different Address? field at the time of order.

The chosen FFL dealer must provide DRM with a digital copy of their FFL via email to ffl@defensiveresourcesmanufacturing.com along with the customer’s order number. If FFL dealers wish to send a hard copy of their FFL by mail they can contact DRM for a physical address at ffl@defensiveresourcesmanufacturing.com

Compliance items WILL NOT ship until a valid FFL has been received by DRM.  Orders will be cancelled if an FFL is not received within 30 days and will be subject to a restocking fee equal to 25% of the purchase price.

If a customer wishes to change the FFL they want to use after the order has shipped, they will be additionally charged for the cost of shipping.

Please note: Firearms cannot be shipped to a P.O. Box.
The customer is responsible for knowing his/her state laws regarding firearm transfers.
Contact your local FFL dealer with any questions regarding the sale or transfer of firearms.
Contact your local FFL before ordering a firearm to verify their transfer fee and to ensure they will receive your transfer.
The customer assumes all responsibility and cost for returned firearms due to FFL refusal or failure to receive.

Defensive Resources Manufacturing will not ship ANY items to the District of Columbia (Washington D.C.).
Defensive Resources Manufacturing will not ship compliance items to the states of California, Connecticut, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, or New York.

If the customer wishes to do local pickup on a compliance item, they may select that option in the cart. DRM will contact the customer by email to set up the transfer. Local pickup will require the completion of an BATFE Form 4473. All Iowa and federal laws will apply to transfer of a compliance item. The buyer must have valid identification along with valid Iowa permit to acquire, or Iowa permit to carry for handguns.
