  1. Firearms Return Criteria
  1. Inspection at FFL Transfer: 
    • All firearms purchased online will be shipped to a Federal Firearms License (FFL) dealer that you select. Carefully inspect your firearm before finalizing the transfer.
    • If you find any damage, defect, or discrepancy, do not accept the transfer. Immediately notify the FFL dealer and contact our Customer Service. We will provide instructions for return or exchange.
  2. Transferred Firearms: 
    • Once you complete the transfer and take possession of the firearm at the FFL, all sales become final.
    • Returned or exchanged firearms can only be accepted if they are determined to be defective and covered under the manufacturer’s warranty or if an error on our part has occurred.
  3. Manufacturer Defects: 
    • Manufacturer defects are typically handled through the manufacturer’s warranty. We can assist you in coordinating any warranty service.
  1. Accessories & Non-Serialized Items
  1. Eligibility: 
    • Items like magazines, optics, holsters, and other gear may be returned or exchanged if they are unopened, unused, and in original packaging.
  2. Defective Items: 
    • If you receive a defective accessory, contact us within 5 days of receipt. Once the defect is confirmed, we will process a replacement, exchange, or store credit as appropriate.
  1. Ammunition
  • No Returns: For safety and regulatory reasons, we do not accept returns or exchanges on ammunition unless there was an error on our part (e.g., wrong caliber shipped).
  • Verification: All ammunition sales require you to comply with all local, state, and federal laws, including age restrictions.
  1. Return Process
  1. Authorization Required: 
    • You must contact Oakland Tactical to obtain a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number or label before sending any item back.
    • Returns sent without authorization may be refused and returned to the sender.
  2. Shipping & Packaging: 
    • Items must be securely packaged to prevent damage.
    • Customers are responsible for shipping costs unless the return is due to our error or a manufacturer defect.
  3. Refunds & Restocking Fees: 
    • Once we receive and inspect the returned item, we will issue a refund to your original payment method or store credit, as applicable.
    • A 10–20% restocking fee may apply to non-defective returns, depending on the item and condition.
    • Allow 7–10 business days from the time we receive the return for the refund to be processed.
  1. Special Orders & Customized Items
  • No Returns: Special orders, custom-made, or modified items (e.g., custom finishes, engravings, barrel threading) are not eligible for return or exchange, unless there is an error on our part or a manufacturer defect.
