Shipping Policy
SHIPPING POLICY
Last updated August 22, 2026
This Shipping Policy explains how S2 Tactical ships orders, including firearms, ammunition, and accessories. By placing an order with us, you acknowledge and agree to the terms below.
1. FIREARMS SHIPPING — FFL DEALERS ONLY
All firearms must be shipped to a licensed Federal Firearms License (FFL) dealer. We do not ship firearms directly to residential addresses. This is a federal requirement and is non-negotiable.
How It Works
- Place your order and select or provide the FFL dealer you want your firearm shipped to.
- Provide FFL information. If the receiving dealer is not already on file with us, you must have them email a copy of their current, valid FFL license to transfers@s2tactical.com before we can ship.
- We ship to the FFL dealer. Once we have verified the receiving dealer’s FFL, your firearm will be shipped to their location.
- Pick up your firearm. When the firearm arrives at the dealer, complete the required background check and any applicable waiting period before taking possession.
FFL Transfer Fees (Inbound to S2 Tactical)
If you are having a firearm transferred to S2 Tactical from another dealer, see our FFL Transfers page for fees and instructions.
2. AMMUNITION SHIPPING
Ammunition may require an adult signature upon delivery. Ammunition cannot be shipped to certain jurisdictions due to state and local laws. See Section 4 for restricted locations.
3. ACCESSORIES & NON-REGULATED ITEMS
Accessories, parts, optics, apparel, and other non-regulated items are shipped directly to the address you provide at checkout. Standard shipping carriers are used, and tracking information will be emailed to you when your order ships.
4. STATE & LOCAL RESTRICTIONS
Due to varying state and local laws, certain products cannot be shipped to all locations. It is your responsibility to know and comply with the laws in your jurisdiction. The following are examples of restrictions — this list is not exhaustive and may change as laws evolve:
- California — Certain firearms, magazines, and ammunition types are restricted. We comply with all CA DOJ requirements.
- New York — Certain firearms and magazine capacities are restricted. NYC has additional restrictions.
- Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maryland, New Jersey, Hawaii — Various restrictions on firearms, magazines, and/or ammunition.
- Washington, D.C. — Firearms and ammunition restrictions apply.
- Alaska & Hawaii — Additional shipping charges may apply; certain items may not be shippable due to carrier restrictions.
- U.S. Territories (Puerto Rico, Guam, etc.) — We do not currently ship to U.S. territories.
If you place an order for a product that cannot legally be shipped to your location, we will contact you and issue a full refund.
5. SHIPPING METHODS & CARRIERS
We use major carriers including UPS and FedEx for firearms shipments. Accessories and non-regulated items may ship via UPS, FedEx, or USPS depending on size, weight, and destination.
Signature requirements: All firearm shipments require an adult signature at the receiving FFL dealer. Some accessory orders may also require a signature at our discretion.
6. SHIPPING TIMES
- Processing time: Orders are typically processed within 1–3 business days. Processing may take longer during high-volume periods or if FFL verification is pending.
- Transit time: Standard ground shipping typically takes 3–7 business days depending on destination. Expedited options may be available at checkout for an additional fee.
- Estimated delivery dates are not guaranteed. Carrier delays, weather, and other factors outside our control may affect delivery.
7. SHIPPING COSTS
Shipping costs are calculated at checkout based on the items in your order, the shipping method selected, and the destination. Free shipping promotions, when offered, apply only to qualifying orders and destinations.
8. ORDER TRACKING
Once your order ships, you will receive an email with tracking information. You can use this to monitor your shipment’s progress. If you have questions about your order status, contact us.
9. LOST OR DAMAGED SHIPMENTS
If your order is lost or arrives damaged, please contact us within 48 hours of the expected or actual delivery date. We will work with the carrier to resolve the issue. Do not discard any packaging or damaged items, as the carrier may require inspection.
