Questions, answered.

Can I buy a firearm online?

Yes. Order online, then post us your original certificate. We complete the paperwork, return your certificate, and send the firearm free to a Registered Firearms Dealer near you. They check your certificate and ID when you collect. Your dealer may charge a fee.

Do you send ammunition to my RFD?

No. Ammunition is collected from us by appointment, and the calibre must be on your certificate.

Do I need a licence for an air rifle?

Not for one up to 12 ft·lb in England and Wales, but you must be 18 or over. Air rifles above 12 ft·lb are Section 1 firearms and need a Firearms Certificate. In Scotland every air rifle needs an Air Weapon Certificate or FAC. Air rifles are always handed over in person, here or through an RFD near you.

Do I need a licence to buy a moderator?

Yes. We only sell moderators to holders of a valid Firearm Certificate. Since 29 June 2026, a moderator for a Section 1 firearm no longer has to be authorised on your certificate (Crime and Policing Act 2026, section 44). But under the new section 2A of the Firearms Act 1968 it is an offence to possess one without a firearm or shotgun certificate, unless an exemption applies, with a fine of up to £1,000. If you buy a moderator without a valid certificate, you are breaking the law. This applies in England, Wales and Scotland. In Scotland, moderators for air weapons still need an Air Weapon Certificate.

What do you deliver to my door?

Thermal, night vision, optics, accessories and clothing, anywhere in the UK. Delivery is free on orders over £75.

Can you store my guns and ammunition?

Yes, short or long term, while you're away or between certificates. Storage is £10 per gun per week and 50p per box of ammunition per week. Arrange a visit to drop them off.

Can I visit you?

Yes, by appointment only. Get in touch to arrange a time for collections, advice, servicing or valuations. We'll send the address when we confirm.
