In Store Policies & Fees | Ammo Bros

Special Order Policy- A 20% down payment of the total purchase price is required to begin a special order on any item(s).  Balance of the total must be paid within 60 days of your item becoming available. If you cancel the contract for any reason or fault on payment, you are eligible for a refund minus the cancellation fee for a one-year period.  The cancellation fee on all special order contracts is forfeiture of the required down payment.  If the item becomes unavailable, or Ammo Brothers, for reasons beyond our control, is unable to deliver the item(s) within 90 days, your deposit may be refunded in full.  Cash payments over $150 will be refunded by company check.  Orders closed due to fault on payment will be issued store credit.

Ammo Brothers is not responsible for any damage, dinged, or scratches that could occur during storage of the firearms. We recommend all firearms be stored in customer supplied bags or cases. An approved DROS and 10-day background check is required for all firearms to be returned to owner. Any firearms left over 60 days after conclusion of prohibition will be considered abandoned, and can be sold to recover storage fees owed.

Incoming Firearm Transfers

Transfers are firearms shipped into a Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL) from another location. They can be shipped from either another FFL dealer or a private individual.
Transfers MUST Be CA Legal when they arrive. Ammo Brothers can not modify any firearms to make them compliant or legal.  Handguns must either be on the CA DOJ Roster of Approved Firearms or be exempt from the roster.

Fees

Incoming FFL Transfers are $75.00 + $37.19 DROS (CA Background Check) + CA Sales Tax (If applicable). If more than 1 firearm is being transferred, each additional firearm is $20 + CA Sales Tax (If applicable). 

All transfers from licensed dealers must have a CA Firearm Shipment Approval number. Any firearm received without an approval number will be returned at the buyers expense. Transfers from private individuals are exempt from CA Firearm Shipment Approval and CA sales tax. All firearms received from a private individual MUST have a clear copy of the sellers ID included in the box.

Private Party Transfers

A Private Party Transfer (PPT) is a transaction between two separate individuals both residing in CA with valid CA identification (Driver's License or ID Card). Both the buyer and seller MUST be present in the store at the same time for this type of transaction.  The state fee for a PPT is $47.19. If more than 1 firearms is being transferred, each additional is $10.  If the buyer in the PPT is denied, the firearm will be returned to the seller (pending a DOJ background check). Buyers and sellers in this situation must come to a mutual agreement regarding refunds or other arrangements as Ammo Brothers will not be involved in your private transactions.

Incoming Ammunition Transfers

Transfers are considered to be ammunition that is shipped into our Ammunition Vendor License from another location. It can be shipped from either another licensed dealer or a private individual.

Fees

Ammunition transfers cost $50 / 5000 rounds + DROS (CA Background Check).  Private party ammo transfers are a flat fee of $5 + DROS. 

The DOJ offers two background checks for ammunition. One is instant and costs $1. The instant check confirms your current information matches a registered firearm in California. If you have not registered a firearm with the state since 2015, you may not be eligible for this type of background check.
The second option is a complete background check and doesn't require you to have a registered firearm or for your current address to match a registered firearm. This can take up to 30 days for the DOJ to complete and costs $19.
Any products left unclaimed after 30 days will be charged a $50/month storage fee. After 180 days the item(s) will be considered to be abandoned.

A Private Party Transfer (PPT) is a transaction between two separate individuals both residing in CA with valid CA identification (Driver's License or ID Card). Both the buyer and seller MUST be present in the store at the same time for this type of transaction.
