-
Simple, just look at the "In Stock" quantities displayed on our site under each product. These numbers reflect the exact amount of inventory in our warehouse that is available for immediate shipment.

- When will I receive my order confirmation number and tracking number?
-
You will receive two order related e-mails from our office. The first e-mail will be sent to you immediately after you place your order and will contain your order confirmation number. You will then receive a second e-mail once your order has been shipped which will contain your shipment's tracking number.

- Can you deliver to me?
-
Because of the ever-changing regulations and shipping restrictions surrounding the sale of ammunition, we are unable to ship to these locations:
- Alaska
- California
- Canada
- Chicago (we are able to ship to other areas of IL)
- Hawaii
- Massachusetts
- New York City, Buffalo, and Rochester (we are able to ship to other areas in the state of NY)
- Washington, DC
- All international locations
Local laws and regulations are always changing. To be certain of your ability to legally receive ammunition purchases by mail, check your local legislation before ordering.
- Do you ship to California?
-
We no longer ship to the state of California, not even through a licensed ammunition transferor. We had hoped to be able to serve our friends on the West Coast but the ammunition laws and other laws that California continued to pass added up to too much cost, paperwork, and difficulty for us to be able to serve the state (and still stay in business). If you ever move out of California, we look forward to serving you elsewhere.
- Do you ship to Illinois?
-
We do ship everywhere in Illinois, except the City of Chicago. Two documents are needed in order to ship to Illinois (outside of Chicago):
- Valid copy of your FOID card (Firearm Owner’s Identification Card)
- Valid copy of your driver’s license OR IL state-issued ID
After placing your order, you should receive an email from us detailing these additional requirements. Please be sure to check your email promptly and follow the instructions closely in order to expedite the approval process.
Your shipping address MUST match at least one of the addresses on these two documents. Once these documents are received and approved, your order will be shipped. And as long as your documents remain valid with a matching shipping address, all future orders will ship automatically.
Applicable IL Statute: b-5) Any resident may purchase ammunition from a person outside of Illinois. Any resident purchasing ammunition outside the State of Illinois must provide the seller with a copy of his or her valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card and either his or her Illinois driver's license or Illinois State Identification Card prior to the shipment of the ammunition. The ammunition may be shipped only to an address on either of those 2 documents.
- Do you ship to the state of New York?
-
We do ship to the state of New York*, but there are restrictions. The in-person requirement of Section 50 of the New York SAFE Act states that all purchased ammo must be shipped to a valid FFL holder OR a registered seller of ammunition. While that means we cannot ship directly to your door, we can ship to an FFL holder or registered seller of your choosing. That chosen transferor then transfers the ammunition on to you after they meet the other requirements of the New York SAFE Act, including performing a background check on you with the New York State Police. This transfer may come with a fee, for which you are responsible. Our checkout displays our approved FFL holders and registered sellers closest to your shipping address, allowing you to choose the transferor that works best. Once you choose an approved transferor, no other information is needed in order to ship your ammo purchase. We'll take care of the rest!
Want to use a transferor that has not yet been approved by Ammo.com? Simply choose "Add a transferor" during the checkout process, and we will email you with further instructions after your order is complete.
*Keep in mind that local regulations restrict us from shipping to addresses located in New York City.
We apologize in advance for the additional requirements caused by the New York SAFE Act. Our checkout process was designed to make these extra steps as easy as possible.
- Do you ship to New Jersey?
-
We do ship to New Jersey, but there are restrictions. The following calibers can be shipped without proof of a FOID card:

- .270
- .243
- 30-30

However, ONE OF THE FOLLOWING is required in order to ship all other calibers:

- Valid copy of your permit to purchase a handgun

After placing your order, you should receive an email from us detailing these additional requirements. Please be sure to check your email promptly and follow the instructions closely in order to expedite the approval process.
Once these documents are received and approved, your order will be shipped. And as long as your documents remain valid with a matching shipping address, all future orders will ship automatically.
According to New Jersey Statutes Annotated 2C:58-3.3., our office is required to obtain a copy of one of the following documents before your order can be shipped: a copy of your valid firearms purchaser identification card, a valid copy of a permit to purchase a handgun, or a valid permit to carry a handgun.
- Do you ship to Connecticut?
-
