Defense Logistics/Patriot Defense Domestic Online Purchasing Requirements
PDPG Requirements for Buying Ammunition Online:
- We ship only to United States citizens and resident aliens that meet all other legal requirements.
- By ordering ammunition, you are certifying that you are a U.S. citizen or resident alien, and that it is legal for you to receive and possess any products ordered at your shipping address.
- Due to the complexity of state and local laws, the customer must check to see if a product is legal to import into his state and locality.
- You have read and agreed to PDPG Terms & Conditions upon check out.
- Ammunition and Firearms cannot be shipped in the same package. If you order both items on the same order, they will be shipped in different packages. There may be additional shipping charges for the additional package.
- Once an order has processed and shipped from our warehouse, we may, but do not guarantee that we are able to change the shipping address. If possible, there is a rerouting fee of $12.50 that will apply. (Price subject to change per shipping carrier fee.)
Return Policy:
Due to safety issues, we do not accept returns of ammunition.
Cancel Orders:
During normal processing times, once an order is submitted it is immediately sent to the warehouse for packaging/shipping. Therefore, if you are going to cancel your order, you will have to let us know immediately and please note there may be a 15% cancellation fee. PLEASE NOTE: Once an order has processed and shipped from our warehouse, we are unable to further cancel an order. If you need to add any additional items to your purchase, please contact us immediately to make any changes. If it has already been processed, we can only cancel the order and the cancellation fee may apply.
If you fail to upload correct State Required information (Current FOID card and Driver’s License, etc.) or there are order discrepancies, it will result in an order cancellation and refund issued. See specific State Requirements below. PLEASE NOTE: CANCELLATION FEES of 15% MAY APPLY.
Federal Age Requirements for Purchasing Ammunition:
- Rifle ammunition: You must be at least 18 years to order ammunition for use in a rifle.
- Handgun ammunition: You must be at least 21 years to order ammunition for use in a handgun.
- Federal law also prohibits the purchase of ammunition by minors, drug addicts, convicted felons, illegal aliens, the mentally ill and those convicted of a misdemeanor crime of domestic violence.
- Additionally, there may be state or local laws that prohibit you from receiving ammunition.
