1. How to buy a gun online?

Click here to read our article on how to buy a gun online. If you have any question, please email us at order@allalphaarmory.com

2. Why are your prices so low? Are you a legitimate dealer? Do you have a storefront?

All Alpha Armory is a fully licensed 07 FFL / 02 SOT based in Texas. You can verify our credentials through the ATF's FFL eZ Check system. We also operate a physical storefront and an outdoor shooting range where we host regular matches.

Our business model is a combination of dropshipping and collectable firearms. Most of our inventory is sourced directly from our distributors and ships from them to you or your FFL. Since we do not carry large local inventory, we can afford to operate on lower margins and offer highly competitive pricing. This model is used by the vast majority of online firearm dealers.

3. Do I still need to send a copy of my FFL if I found my local dealer using the FFL Finder? Can I just send a screenshot from ffls.com?

Per ATF regulations, we must obtain a copy of your receiving FFL’s license before we can ship any firearm. If your selected FFL is marked green in the FFL Finder, it means we already have their license on file. However, we still recommend that you contact them directly to confirm they are willing to receive the transfer.

If the FFL on file is expired or missing, we will reach out to you by email. Screenshots from websites such as ffls.com are not considered valid FFL documents. Please contact your dealer and ask them to send their FFL copy directly to info@allalphaarmory.com. Be sure to include your order number and your full name to speed up processing.

If you're purchasing a suppressor, you must also provide the dealer’s SOT.

4. Do you charge sales tax? How much is shipping to my state?

We only charge sales tax for orders shipped to Texas addresses. If you're located outside of Texas, no sales tax is applied.

Our standard flat-rate shipping fees are:

• Rifles: $21.99
• Handguns: $25.99
• Ammunition: $21.99
• Accessories: $14.99

In most cases, our flat-rate shipping fees cover the full cost of delivery. However, when you order multiple products together, they may be fulfilled by different distributors. We will do our best to consolidate shipments whenever possible. If we are unable to combine the shipments, additional shipping fees may apply. For orders shipped outside the lower 48 states, an additional shipping surcharge may apply. Due to the high shipping costs associated with ammunition, we may contact you to collect additional shipping fees if necessary. Please note that we do not ship primers or powder.

5. How soon will my order ship after I place it?

Most items listed on our site are shipped directly from our distributors (excluding our local C&R, collectables, and transferable MG inventory). Our inventory syncs daily with distributor stock via API. Once your order is placed, we forward it to the distributor for immediate fulfillment.

Some manufacturers do not allow dropshipping. In such cases, the item must first be sent to our store and then forwarded to you. Since we are based in Texas, and our primary distributors are located in TX, LA, and AZ, we typically receive such items in 1–3 days and ship them out immediately—making us one of the fastest dropshippers in the industry.

If your order has not shipped within 2–4 business days, please be patient—it’s likely en route to us for forwarding.

If your place your order on Friday, most likely your order will be processed on next Monday, because the FedEx won't pick up package during the weekend.

6. Do you offer military, law enforcement, or other discounts?

Due to our already slim margins, we do not offer additional discounts at this time. However, we do offer a 2% cash discount for payments made via Zelle, cashier’s check, or USPS Money Order to offset credit card processing fees (which typically cost us 2–2.5%, or more for AMEX).

To use the 2% discount, apply coupon code "CASH" at checkout, select “Cash” as the payment method, and send the discounted total to info@allalphaarmory.com via Zelle. Don’t forget to include your order number in the payment notes.

7. I live in a restricted state with magazine capacity limits. Can you help?

Yes—we offer compliance and middleman services for customers in restricted (“ban”) states. While we do not replace magazines for free, we can:

• Ship the magazines to a neighboring free state (additional $19.99); or
• Convert the magazine to a 10-round compliant version($14.99 per mag).

For any special compliance requests, please email order@allalphaarmory.com and we’ll do our best to assist you.
