Terms & Conditions of Online Sale

M E FIREARMS, LLC d/b/a M E Arms
Effective date: October 9, 2026 · Version: v2026-10

These Terms replace our earlier Terms & Conditions and Store Policies pages. They apply to orders placed on mearms.com. Transfers of firearms you bought somewhere else are handled under our separate Transfers page and are not covered here.

1. Who we are and how you agree

These Terms are an agreement between you and M E FIREARMS, LLC, d/b/a M E Arms (“M E Arms,” “we,” “us”), a Texas limited liability company and federal firearms licensee (FFL 5-74-029-01-9G-13552).

M E Arms · 15681 San Pedro Ave, Hill Country Village, TX 78232 · (210) 281-5512 · [email protected]

When you check the box at checkout and place an order, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. We keep a record of the version you accepted. These Terms are the entire agreement for your order.

2. Your legal responsibility

You are responsible for knowing and following every federal, state, and local law that applies to buying, receiving, owning, carrying, and using what you order, including firearms, NFA items, ammunition, magazines, and parts. Product listings are not legal advice. Our acceptance of your order is not a statement that the item is legal for you. We may cancel any order we believe would break the law.

3. Eligibility and age

You must be at least 18 to use this site.
You must be at least 18 to buy long guns, long-gun ammunition, and other age-restricted items.
You must be at least 21 to buy handguns, handgun ammunition, and NFA items. This is our store policy and will stay in place until sales to 18- to 20-year-olds are fully recognized under federal law.
You must not be prohibited from receiving or possessing firearms or ammunition under federal, state, or local law.
You must be buying for yourself, not for someone else. Buying for another person (“straw purchase”) or giving false information is a crime. We will cancel the order and may report it to law enforcement.

4. Orders, order emails, and when the sale is made

Your order is an offer. Placing an order is an offer to buy. It is not yet a sale.
“Order Received” email. Right after you order, we send an “Order Received” email. It only confirms that we got your order. It is not acceptance.
Review. We review each order for fraud, payment, stock, and legal requirements.
“Order Confirmed” email. If we accept your order, we send an “Order Confirmed” email. The sale contract is formed when we send the Order Confirmed email, not before.
Payment. You authorize us to charge your payment method for the full order total when you place your order. If we don’t accept your order, we void the charge or refund it in full to your original payment method.

Prices and errors. Prices, availability, and product details can change without notice. Many items come from distributor inventory that can sell out. If an item is listed at the wrong price or with wrong information because of a typing, system, or supplier error, we may cancel the order and refund it in full, even after an Order Confirmed email. We may limit quantities.

Changing an order. We can’t edit an order once it’s placed. Contact us before it is confirmed and we’ll cancel it so you can place a new one. If the order has already been confirmed, the cancellation is a buyer cancellation under Section 8.

5. Shipping and delivery

Ship time. Most items ship directly from our distributors. Your order ships when our distributor fulfills it, which is usually within days, but we do not promise a ship date.

If we haven’t shipped within 30 days. If your order hasn’t shipped within 30 days after you place it, we’ll email you, give you a new expected date if we have one, and offer you the choice to cancel. If you cancel for this reason, you get a full refund to your original payment method. No restocking fee applies.

Where we ship. We ship only within the 48 contiguous United States. We do not ship to Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, U.S. territories, APO/FPO addresses, or outside the United States.

Restricted locations. Some items can’t be shipped to some states, counties, or cities, such as certain ammunition, magazines, triggers, and parts. Our checkout blocks many of these, but checkout restrictions are a courtesy, not a guarantee that an item is legal where you are. Section 2 still applies. If an order is going to a location where we can’t ship the item, we’ll cancel it with a full refund.

Ammunition ships by ground, following carrier rules, and an adult signature is required on delivery. Some items ship as hazardous materials.

Addresses. Billing and shipping details must belong to the buyer. Don’t enter an FFL dealer’s address as your shipping address. Firearms are routed to your chosen FFL automatically (see Section 6).

Damaged or missing shipments. Tell us within 5 days of delivery, with photos if the item is damaged. Risk of loss passes to you when the carrier delivers.

6. Firearms and NFA items

Delivery only to an FFL or our store. We never ship firearms, frames, or receivers to a non-licensee. Each firearm is either picked up in person at our store or shipped to the licensed FFL dealer you choose at checkout. That dealer must agree to receive it. We may contact the dealer to verify their license before shipping. The receiving dealer’s fees, rules, and state requirements are between you and that dealer. We recommend contacting them before you order.

NFA items (such as suppressors, short-barreled rifles and shotguns, AOWs, machine guns, and destructive devices) are sold and transferred under the federal law and ATF guidance in effect at the time of transfer, state and local law, and our store procedures. Requirements and wait times can change and some are set by ATF, so we can’t guarantee them. We’ll tell you what’s required for your item before transfer.

Background check. Before we release a firearm, you must complete ATF Form 4473 and pass a NICS background check (or present a qualifying permit where the law allows).

Denied: If NICS denies the transfer, we cancel the order and refund it minus the 35% restocking fee (Section 8). We will not transfer, ship, or release the firearm to anyone else for you.
Delayed: If NICS returns “Delayed,” we may, at our sole discretion, transfer on or after the date federal law allows (the “Brady date”), or wait for a final NICS response. If the check isn’t resolved within the 30-day window allowed for your Form 4473, or we decide not to transfer, we cancel the order and refund it minus the 35% restocking fee.

Right to refuse. We may refuse or cancel any sale or transfer, before or at pickup, for any lawful reason. That includes when we have reason to believe the buyer is prohibited, is buying for someone else, is under the influence, has given inconsistent information, or shows signs of fraud.

7. In-store pickup

To pick up an online order (firearm or not), the buyer named on the order must come in person and bring:

A valid Texas government-issued photo ID whose name matches the order, and
The physical credit or debit card used to pay online, in the buyer’s name.

Only the buyer named on the order may take the item, and you’ll sign a pickup receipt. If you can’t meet these requirements, we will hold the order, and the storage, unclaimed, and incomplete-order terms below apply.

Storage. We’ll notify you when your order is ready. Starting 30 days after that notice, storage is $1.50 per day, payable at pickup.

Unclaimed orders. Items not picked up within 60 days of our ready notice, unless other arrangements are made with us by email or phone, may be cancelled and refunded less applicable restocking and storage fees.

8. All sales are final; restocking fee; refunds

ALL SALES ARE FINAL. WE DO NOT ACCEPT RETURNS. You’ll be asked to confirm this with a separate checkbox at checkout.

35% restocking fee. One flat restocking fee of 35% of the item price applies whenever an order is cancelled or fails for a reason on the buyer’s side, whether the item came from our store stock or from a distributor. This includes:

you cancel an order after it is confirmed;
NICS denies the transfer;
a NICS “Delayed” check isn’t resolved within the 30-day Form 4473 window, or we decide not to transfer (Section 6);
the order goes unclaimed (Section 7); or
the order is incomplete: we’ve asked you for ID, documents, or verification and haven’t received them within 21 days.

We refund the rest of the order total to your original payment method.

Full refund. You get a full refund, with no fee, when we cancel for our own reasons:

our error, including a wrong item or an item damaged in shipping (we’ll offer a replacement or a full refund);
the item is out of stock or the distributor can’t fill it;
a pricing or listing error;
the item can’t be shipped to your location; or
we decline your order (other than a NICS denial or delay).

You also get a full refund if you cancel after we notify you of a shipping delay under Section 5.

How refunds are paid. Refunds go to your original payment method, normally within 7 business days, or one billing cycle for card credits. We don’t refund to store credit or gift cards unless you ask for that.

Defective items. Products are covered only by their manufacturer’s warranty (Section 10). Contact the manufacturer for warranty service. We’re glad to help you reach them.

A firearm that has already been transferred to you can only come back to us through a lawful transfer, and returning it does not create a refund right.

9. Payments, fraud prevention, and chargebacks

To protect you and us from fraud, we and our service providers, including our payment processor and FraudLabs Pro, check orders using your billing and shipping details, email, phone, IP address, device data, and card verification results (AVS/CVV). An order that fails or doesn’t match these checks may be held, verified by phone or ID, or cancelled.

Talk to us first. If you have a problem with a charge, contact us first so we can fix it.

Disputes. If you dispute a charge with your card issuer, you agree to cooperate with our investigation. We may give your card issuer the order record, these Terms and the checkout checkboxes you accepted, ID verification, signed pickup receipts, the date you completed Form 4473 (not its contents, except as the law allows), store video, carrier tracking, and our correspondence with you. Filing a chargeback in bad faith after receiving the goods may be reported to law enforcement.

10. Warranty disclaimer

Products are covered only by their manufacturer’s warranty, if any. M E Arms does not give its own warranty. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, M E ARMS DISCLAIMS ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

11. Limitation of liability

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, M E ARMS IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY INJURY OR LOSS ARISING FROM THE USE, MISUSE, MODIFICATION, STORAGE, TRANSPORT, OR HANDLING OF ANY PRODUCT BY YOU OR ANYONE ELSE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM RELATING TO AN ORDER IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THAT ORDER. Nothing in these Terms limits a right you have that the law does not allow to be waived.

12. Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless M E Arms and its owners, employees, and agents from claims, losses, and reasonable attorneys’ fees arising from your breach of these Terms, your false statements, or your violation of law, including your use or misuse of products.

13. Text messages and emails

Transactional emails. We send emails about your orders (including Order Received and Order Confirmed), pickup, shipping, and account, and general notices about our store and policies. These are part of doing business with us and are always sent.

Marketing emails. We send marketing email only if you subscribe. Every marketing email has an unsubscribe link.

Text messages. If you opt in, we may send transactional text messages and any one-time code you request: order confirmations, shipping updates, pickup and appointment reminders, and support replies. Consent to texts is not a condition of purchase. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out or HELP for help. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

14. Site use, accounts, and content

License. We give you a limited, personal license to use this website. You may not copy, scrape, resell, or commercially exploit the site or its content (including logos, product descriptions, prices, text, and images), or use our name or marks in meta tags or hidden text, without our written permission.

Trademarks and copyright. M E Arms and our logos are our trademarks. Site content is owned by M E Arms or its licensors and protected by copyright.

Your account. You are responsible for keeping your username and password secure and for activity under your account. Tell us right away if you think your account has been misused.

Content you submit. If you send us reviews, photos, or testimonials, you give us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual right to use and display them, and you confirm you have the right to share them. We may remove content at our discretion.

Coupons and offers. Offers and discount codes are subject to their stated terms. We decide whether an order qualifies. If an offer is misused, for example by working around site safeguards, we may remove the discount or free items or cancel the order, and we’ll tell you by email or phone.

Site availability. The website is provided “as is” and “as available.” We don’t guarantee it will be uninterrupted or error-free.

15. Governing law and disputes

Texas law governs these Terms, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be resolved only in the state or federal courts located in Bexar County, Texas, and you consent to their jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by law, you and we agree to bring claims only individually, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, consolidated, or representative action.

Severability. If any part of these Terms is unenforceable, the rest stays in effect.
No waiver. If we don’t enforce a provision, that isn’t a waiver.
Events outside our control. We’re not liable for delays caused by events we can’t control, including carrier, distributor, ATF, or NICS delays or outages.

16. Records

We keep Form 4473, acquisition and disposition (A&D), and NFA records for as long as federal law requires. See our Privacy Policy.

17. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms by posting a new version with a new effective date. The version in effect when you place an order governs that order.
