And remember…it will not ship directly to your house without a background check.

How We Chose the Best Online Gun Stores
The Pew Pew Tactical team has amassed a small arsenal of firearms, most of which are bought online. So, we rounded up our writers and editors and had them give us a list of their preferred online gun retailers.
Each online vendor has been chosen based on our experience and the following criteria:
- At least 2+ writers or editors have purchased a total of 10+ times from each vendor
- We have had a 10/10 buying experience
- Any problems that occurred were addressed and fixed
- Generally positive online sentiment from social media and forums
While we buy from all over the place, these shoes are time-tested and team-approved.
Best Online Gun Stores
1. GrabAGun – Best Overall Online Gun Store
-
25% off all OAKLEY products - OAKLEY25
Copied! Visit Merchant
Pros
- Great pricing
- Extensive FFL database
- Guns are usually in stock
Cons
- More niche guns might not be available
We became enamored with GrabAGun a little bit more recently since they always seemed to have the guns we wanted in stock when other guys didn’t.
Now, they are our go-to for purchasing guns because they offer some of the best pricing, an FFL database, and fast shipping, in addition to having guns in stock.
They tend to keep very popular guns in stock, too, like your Sig Sauers and your Glocks. But we’re also loving that they have a good selection of AK-47s. It’s where I got my Zastava and Arsenal AKs.
2. Palmetto State Armory – Low Prices & In-Stock Gun Store
Prices accurate at time of writing
Prices accurate at time of writing
-
25% off all OAKLEY products - OAKLEY25
Copied! Visit Merchant
Pros
- Large inventory
- Good sales and deals
- Solid customer service
- Great beginner options
Cons
- Don't always carry high-end and older guns
- Availability is hit and miss
PSA has never failed us.
Yes, we love PSA’s AR-15s…as well as their other guns. Link to our PSA Review Section.
But did you know Palmetto State Armory now carries tons of popular handguns and rifles too?
It looks like they get all the new guns right on time.
And sometimes, there are really, really good deals on older (but still great) stuff. My guess is they buy a whole bunch of one thing at a time and pass on the savings.
Otherwise, I always check out their Gun Deals page to see if there are any bargains, especially when they have coupon codes for specific guns to bypass pesky manufacturer pricing.
PSA is likely the place where Pew Pew Tactical has ordered the most number of firearms.
3. Kentucky Gun Company – Massive Online Gun Shop
-
25% off all OAKLEY products - OAKLEY25
Copied! Visit Merchant
Pros
- Competitive pricing
- Most things kept in-stock
- Layaway option
Cons
- Have to put in email for some pricing
Known more as “Kygunco” since that’s their website. There are tons of gun selections with things that are actually in stock. Plus decent shipping times with all our orders.
Oh, and one of the most important things…they are super competitive in their pricing. Not to mention, they offer layaway if you need some time to pay for that gun.
Chances are someone already bought from them before and had the gun shipped to your receiving FFL…so it’s already in their system.
4. Brownells – Best Accessories & Guns Store
Prices accurate at time of writing
Prices accurate at time of writing
-
25% off all OAKLEY products - OAKLEY25
Copied! Visit Merchant
Pros
- Go to shop for accesories and parts
- Decent prices
- Good sales and deals
Cons
- Not as much inventory
Brownells is my go-to for firearm accessories and specific tools. But it’s also one of my favorites for actual firearms. They have almost all of the popular handguns and rifles in stock and ready to go.
Prices are near MSRP but non-gouged, but you can still score a great bargain if you keep an eye out for deals.
And they’ve brought back monthly coupons based on order amounts. I also get most of my upgrade parts from them too.
Since it is such a big store, you have peace of mind that you won’t get ripped off and that if there’s anything wrong, they’ll take care of it.
Plus, if you’re part of their EDGE program, you get free 2-day shipping on everything.
5. Gunbroker – Best Online Gun Auction
Prices accurate at time of writing
Prices accurate at time of writing
-
25% off all OAKLEY products - OAKLEY25
Copied! Visit Merchant
Pros
- Biggest auction site
- Lots of inventory
- Best place to find old or niche firearms
Cons
- Have to pay for shipping
- Can get scammed
If you’re looking for a screaming deal or something rarer…you’ll have to go the auction route. And Gunbroker is the biggest one out there.
Since it’s an auction you’ll be dealing with individual sellers. I would recommend going with a well-rated one since they’ve gotten it all figured out.
You’ll likely have to pay for shipping and also some sellers won’t accept credit cards (or will charge 3%). Plus you’ll probably have to send in your FFL information since the chances are slim that the specific seller has sent a gun to your specific FFL.
6. Armslist – Best Face-To-Face Sales
-
25% off all OAKLEY products - OAKLEY25
Copied! Visit Merchant
Pros
- Can find older or hard to find guns
Cons
- Membership fee to join
- Have to meet face to face
Ah…the world of private firearms transfers. Armslist is where people post their wares, and you message to meet them up and complete the transaction.
It’s worth noting that Armslist charges a $6.99 membership fee to join, which allows you to message sellers and post your own guns for sale.

7. Rainier Arms – The Cutting Edge Gun Store
Prices accurate at time of writing
Prices accurate at time of writing
-
25% off all OAKLEY products - OAKLEY25
Copied! Visit Merchant
Pros
- Have SBRs and NFA items
- Can find high-end guns
- Good reputation
Cons
- Prices might be a bit higher
Want the highest-end tricked-out pistol, rifle, or shotgun?
Or how about some NFA items like silencers and SBRs (short-barreled rifles)?
Check out Rainier Arms.
They’ve got a stellar reputation in the business and I’ve personally visited their shop and warehouse. They’ve got their system down and will take care of you.
8. Euro Optic – Best Long Range Gun Shop
Prices accurate at time of writing
Prices accurate at time of writing
-
25% off all OAKLEY products - OAKLEY25
Copied! Visit Merchant
Pros
- Best place for high end scopes
- Good selection of rare guns
- Good customer service
Cons
- A lot orders require signature upon delivery
I’ve already written about Euro Optic as the best place to get high-end scopes.
But their selection of rarer guns, especially in the precision rifle department, is also impressive. If Desert Tech and Accuracy International are in your sights…go with Euro Optic.
I especially like that you can call in and ask questions, and someone knowledgeable will answer. This is an outfit run by people who love what they sell.
9. Guns.com – Trusted Online Used Gun Store
-
25% off all OAKLEY products - OAKLEY25
Copied! Visit Merchant
Pros
- Large inventory
- Can find rare and historical pieces
Cons
- Prices are a lot higher than other retailers
- Mixed reviews on customer service
Originally breaking into the gun space with news and reviews…Guns.com stepped into the world of used gun sales a few years ago.
Prices for used and new guns are a little all over the place. That means sometimes you’ll find a great deal…but sometimes you might find a sought-after gun for way over MSRP. However, you’ve got the peace of mind with a large company that has its own appraisal and inspection team.
We put in an order ourselves and documented the whole process in our review here.

You definitely need to check out a company in Kansas called “GunBros”. They sell into
All 50 states and have a unique twist to making gun ownership fun and there Great People to deal with. Check them out
My biggest complaint about GunBroker concerns sellers who will spoof their way into your search. Say you're looking for a Galil- you'll get numerous other semi-automatic rifles unrelated to your search show up. This is because the sellers will throw dozens of other 'named' rifles somewhere in the text of their post for no valid reason other than get your eyes on their unrelated listing. It wastes my time sorting through items I have no interest in and it's aggravating.
According to GunBroker, this deceptive type of listing violates their policy but after years of complaints they have never done anything about it...
Beware of gun broker, I had an issue with them a year or so ago, with a high rated seller and it was a scam. Gunbroker
customer support is trash they will not return messages or communicate with you or try to get the problem corrected. I am still wanting to get my situation corrected but it's not looking good. There is a ton of complaints like mine I found at the bbb after the fact
I've had good luck with Tombstone Tactical out of AZ.
How about the shops that accept Bitcoin/crypto? Now that would be helpful.
I have done a lot of business with Bud's Gun Shop online store. Apparently you haven't.
I wouldn't consider Guns.Com very trustworthy or honest. I recently ordered a Sig P226 Legion SAO model and paid over a grand for it. They shipped my local FLL shop a cobbled together mess from several different Sig P226 models. The pistol did not have the chevron markings, the gray ceracote finish or the pictured and standard grips with the Legion medallion logo. The received pistol was plain and pure dull black. When I and the gun-store folks talked with them and confirmed this was not a Legion model they dug in their heels and insisted it was. They would not refund and take the pistol back without a 15% restocking fee plus a $40.00 return shipping fee. They are not reliable and worthy of trust. This was the treatment that I received after over a dozen purchases from them in the past. Don't roll the dice with Guns.Com.
Only if it’s on the Commifornia approved list.
Haha!, I guess you’re the middleman who lives in a mud hunt somewhere?
Yes, they are.
Gun broker?, Definitely not!, Price gouging, their 1% bullshit compliance fee?, tax, I could go on and on here, GunBroker is the last place I would ever buy a new firearm, I might buy a used one there if I get a really good deal, but usually you don’t because the tax and shipping fees, compliance fee usually negate any good deals you get.
What about RK guns ?? have gotten a few deals there .
I check prices and have found that BUDS guns usually has the best prices, free shipping and very fast service,
i agree, have purchased 2 from them
Hi , what about Bear Creek Arsenal ?
Guns dot com is a rip off coming and going .
I usually try to buy locally because I never wanted to wait for shipping for online orders but I have ordered a couple times online - twice from guns dot com one time was awesome and the other time not so much. They shipped out my first order within 1-2 days but the second order it took over a week and I had to call several times to see what was up, never got a straight answer. I do have a gun on layaway from Buds that I will pay off this week so we will see how that goes - I'm optimistic based on their reputation with other reviews they seem to be pretty awesome.
Excellent list of establishments of where to purchase arms. In my particular case, I was (and did, via this great website) going to purchase a Seecamp pistol. Last week, I contacted Seecamp's four listed distributors to inform them that I am going to purchase a Seecamp 32 ACP - and none responded. Today, I googled "online gun brokers", saw Pew Pew, went thru the list and purchased a Seecamp 32 ACP from GrabAGun using this website's link. Gun Broker also had Seecamps while at least five of the others did not.
Over the past year I purchased two used handguns from Guns . Com and both times was very happy with my purchase and how things were handled. Both guns were at great prices and arrived at my FFF within a few days after I placed my order. Both were what the website calls “Certified Used Guns” which means I could have returned them with no questions asked. But that has never occurred to me because both guns were precisely what was advertised: quality handguns in excellent condition. Used Guns are also shipped free. The other websites are probably excellent but I will probably buy from Guns . Com again.
How long did it take for your gun to come in ?
The last time I placed my order at about 6pm on a Sunday. Picked it up at my FFL ab about 3:30 pm the following Tuesday.
You forgot to include Vance Outdoors. Competitive pricing and in stock guns.
Bud's and Davidson's Gallery of Guns? Been pleased with both!
Guns dot com is AWFUL
Customer service was terrible, sold me a broken scope, just terrible
Very surprised you left out budsgunshop dot com and primaryarms dot com. Many online do not ship to where I am (Hawaii) but both these do. But the best part is they both have good to very good prices and Buds ships free much of the time, PA charges a small fee. Buds has a HUGE selection and PA has a 12% off everything deal occasionally and that includes guns, which is rare among other online stores. Great experiences with both of these. I would like to support our local stores but they have a small selection and many guns they can not get.
Agree about Bud's. They never seem to get a mention on here.
FAMILY firearms sells guns out of state with no sales tax. That could mean a huge savings on 1000 plus guns.
Hey Guys, a lot of the links you've provided to these sources are broken.
Let me check on those!
They work as of December 20, 2023, and I purchased a very difficult to find firearm via one of your links.
Check out Armslist dot com
I like all of your selections except guns dot com website. My experience with them was horrible. I felt like they tried to deceive me with a used gun and then they would not own up to what they had done. I had to get my credit card company involved to resolve the issue. Never again would I buy from these people.
I've purchased at Cheaper than Dirt, KY Gun CO, Brownells, Buds Gun Shop. The one I have started using that gives me a warm fuzzy is Bass Pro Shops. They have slightly higher prices, but they also have their own FFL's and stores for pick up as well as a real good selection, including in the retail store. I think I'll be sticking with Bass Pro Shops from now on. In any case, I recommend using only big name dealers. These small guys are too likely to be a scam.
Just chatted with a guy on Twitter (first red flag) claiming to sell guns at a place called "Official Tactical Store". He claimed to have a firearm I've been looking for a long time with no success. Sounds too good to be true. (second red flag). Went to the website and got an error message saying sorry, we're working on a problem, check back later. (third red flag). He says he'll sell me the gun through Twitter, he'd walk me through the process. I'm done, I'm not going to give my cc number to some twit on Twitter. I told him get his website up and I'd consider it.
ethicsrefinance @ gmail . com got me $15,000 through paypal........
even when my life was going astray , i almost commit suicide , because i had nobody to help me. then i came in contact with this guys called ethicsrefinance who got me $15,000 through their PayPal hack transfer . i will be forever grateful to them, they are indeed GODSENT TO MANKIND
How can I learn more? I could definitely benefit from something as shady as this sounds. i just know it.
Just wondering why Buds gun shop didn’t make the list?
swatmann Mann - telegram
Yo I’m gay
Guns dot com is horrific at price gouging. Sometimes asking two to three times the MSRP.
If you use one of the ffls listed on GunBroker there isn't a problem because the already have the info handy.The one time someone requested my ffls info they wouldn't give it to me anyway.But there's thousands listed and even in the podunk I live in there's 6 or8 within 30 minutes.
Interesting that Bud's Gun Shop was not on the list. I've ordered from them many times and never had a problem. I would consider them in the top five and not above Brownells. I find Brownells to be higher on their prices than others. PSA is good but they never seem to have the stuff in stock when I am looking for what I want. I have ordered from them and no problem there either except once when some ammo wasn't packaged very well. Looked like it was just thrown in a box with a piece of brown paper that did nothing for protection. Someone that obviously was in too much of a hurry to get a shipment out. Never ordered anything from the others. I have been to a Sportsman's Warehouse and their prices were higher than other gun stores in my area, and not much of a selection. A gun I did want was not in stock, only the display model. The guns behind the counter were helpful but, like I said, their prices were higher. Anyway, give Bud's Gun Shop a try. I don't work for them just mentioning it here if anyone interested.
Also no mention of CDNN , cheaper than dirt or Trop guns, Trop has used guns for excellent prices I picked up a FN FNS C for 299 Barely Used with a case and two magazines and a Kimber classic for 399 also Barely Used , look like a demo model . cheaper Than Dirt has financing cdnn does not will ship to your FFL if you're looking for deals on trop get on their email list and they'll send you a email when they have new stuff in you have to jump on it quick to get the prices I got but they are there good luck
Any opinion about Gallery of Guns? You can check and compare fees and pricing between local FFLs and still get backed by the Davidson’s warranty, which I’ve been told by a local FFL is much simpler than working directly with the manufacturer.
I live in California. Not sure anything is mail order here...
All the guns can be sent to you - via a FFL. I purchased one today, 12.20.23 that will be sent to my FFL in Lake Forest, CA. I am out of town until 12.27.23. On 12.28.23, I will sign the CalUnicornia paperwork and receive the gun 10 days later in January 2024.
I have used PSA and Grab a Gun in the last few months and they have been excellent.
No problems with either one and their prices have been the best for me. I always have a lot of questions and they’ve had the correct answers as well.
Battlehawkarmory gets a lot of bad reviews, but I’ve now bought from them three times without a hitch. Got fantastic prices and just a bit slow shipping. Patience pays.

Greetings,
We recently came across your website, is really amazing!
I’ve been looking at some products for a while now, and I found your guide on picking the right products very helpful.
I thought of reaching out to you as my website has a lot of information and products for people looking to find the right Ak 47 PISTOL and DRACO.
Could you possibly add a link to my content in your resource section? I will also add a link to your website on my resource page as well.
Let me know what you think and if this is something we can work with.”
we will be waiting on your responds regarding our request, THANKS FOR YOUR COOPRATION.

Great selection, guys! However, it seems as if you're not truly familiar with GunBroker! ('Scuse me if someone already mentioned this.) *grins*
Sort By "Price: Low to High" in the top right dropdown, then scroll down on the left and click the "Buy Now" button. NOW you'll see the items (most of 'em) at their no BS-ing around price.
After looking at the best-priced, blue-starred, "top-listed" stuff, be SURE to go down past them and consider the lowest-priced ones without the blue star. The prices start low again!
I didn't figure this out at first and missed guns/stuff further down the pages that were sometimes cheaper than the featured ones!
Ex: Basic 10/22, p. 1, - $249
Same weapon, p. 3 - $239
Hope that helps out. *smiles*
As a ( once ) long time user of 'Gunbroker' I discovered that recently when I went to use the web-site that I had to 'requalify' to 'reactivate' by sending them ALL and EVERYTHING requested ( including a picture of me 'holding my own license' ) which is ridiculous because even a passport sized photo does NOT show the license as legible ) and they never responded after a week when I inquired. Then? I looked them up and discovered they have had their ISSUES recently and whoever runs it now??? Are amateurs-period! I left them a LONG and negative review and do not recommend them to ANYONE.. YOU, must work for them or something..ehhh??
Hi there. First, I do NOT work for GB, why would you say that? I've simply used them as one of many sites to buy weapons and related stuff. I was just pointing out that GB isn't purely an auction site. I always search under the "Buy Now" option.
I'm not sure why GB or a particular seller wanted all of that info from you. I've never gone through that and wouldn't if they asked for it. If you don't like them, don't use them for anything more than comparing prices and sizing up the market. Lately I've added GunsInternational to my list of sites. Try them as well.
I've used PSA for many orders in spite of reading so bad reviews. Never had any issue......until now. I ordered 2 items. The dark earth dust cover came but the foregrip was a no show. I always heard they had poor customer service. So far that's proving to be true. I contacted them twice and all I've gotten is "crickets".
The tavor ts12 is a left handed, semi-automatic handgun that is perfect for sporting or home defense shotgun. It is a 12gauge, compact, and lightweight shotgun that is easy to maneuver and handle. With its semi-automatic action, it is fast and efficient in terms of fire power. Go there and order your guns and bulk ammunition from Masterpiecefirearm retail store
I'm replying to.my own post here. I gave PSA what I feel is an unfair or rather incorrect review. I didn't give them a fair amount of time to respond to my problem with my order being short. They've not only contacted me but have made every effort to make this right. PSA has a long history of doing the right thing and I ask their forgiveness for my foolishly hasty remarks and recommend them with 5 stars.

Rural King (Rkguns) used to be a decent place to buy online, but thier shipping times have stretched into two weeks or more and they have recently increased their prices. Also they like to oversell inventory and then cancel your order.

Quite odd that the first place listed is awfully expensive compared to many other places I’ve visited. Also seems odd that galleryofguns is not listed; yet they seem to have some of the best prices I’ve ever found.
US citizens - you are lucky that you are in US (it is first of course :-) ) and secound, that you have these posibilities to buy for example PSA AR15 (Easter Deals now) for $499,99. For part of Ukraine (where we have active battles with russia) AR15 rifles prices increasing (multiply by 2-4-6 for civilians). And also if you are left handed (like me) that's a real problem to buy AR15 for regular price in Ukraine. I asked few FFL dealers from US to open local sales points in western Ukraine - it is good business posibilities for weapons companies to sell weapons in War zone country. Welcome to Ukraine!
Just bought my SAR9X online at Dahlonega Armory. Best prices I found next to Shooting Surplus. Dahlonega stock status appears timely and accurate. They shipped it FedEx overnight. Extremely satisfied and highly recommend.
I just dodged the SCAM bullet thanks to an alert pair of folks at Olde English Outfitters, Tipp City, OH, and Texas Gun Shop, Corpus C, TX, respectively. The scammers are Firearms Texas. The people at TGS report that the TX attorney general is moving to find and stop the scammers. I got lucky, PayPal stopped the payment and I'm gonna go put some holes in cardboard. Now, if I can just find a Taurus Tracker 22....
Good information.
What? No Buds gun shop or Omaha outdoors?
Exactly what I was thinking. I've bought a few from KYGunCo, but Bud's is a close second.
If you guys live in St. Louis, MO, the best store that I have come across is Saint Louis Tactical. My uncle recently purchased one and was satisfied with the entire process. They have such a huge variety of guns, shotguns rifles etc you guys can check them out on their website by the same name.
Hi, is there any way you can help put an end to the online CZ Gun Store site. It is a scam and unfortunately I found out the hard way! After I placed my order, being new to online gun buying I sent my money vía Zelle, I’m a dummy, and never heard from them again.
Does anyone know if "BUYTOPGUNS" is a scam?
They are very unresponsive.

Does anyone have any experience with Tactical Guns Store?
Thanks!
Gunsdotcom prices on used Charter Arms revolvers are higher than new. GONG!
Author forgot to mention that Armslist has a monthly membership fee of a minimum $6.99. Eric, you should do more in-depth research before you make a recommendation in your articles. IHO, incomplete, and/or simplistic information is the worst thing you can do to build a reputation of honesty and knowledge. Also if you are receiving any type of compensation from a recommended site, you should disclose that fact.
Thanks for the feedback. We appreciate you pointing out that Armslist has a membership fee and we will update the article to reflect that. We are humans though and sometimes we forget to add things into articles. We hope you don't hold it against us that we sometimes aren't perfect. Also, we were not paid to put anyone on this list. This is based on our experiences buying guns online. Again, thanks for the feedback.
As of now Armslist makes you buy a one month membership to even look at the price and the description.They have the Price and the description blurred out, so you have get the membership. Also if you have a ad up or you send a email to the person selling or trading, It doesn't go to their email it goes to the account messages NOT to your personal email. You have to stay logged in or check it more often then your email. pain in the butt now to put a item on there.
derp
Cabelas is another site where they'll list lots of items in stock... until you actually click on the item. I emailed them about it and they said their inventory doesn't always sync up with their site. When I asked how often it does sync, they said they didn't know.
I've purchased from Cabelas and found that you need to make sure it is your location. I have then gotten a better reflection of what is in stock.
WORST online retailer is JoeBobOutfitters in Kansas. Check out their Yelp reviews before wasting your time.
I have always had good luck with Joe Bob Outfitters. I can’t believe that gunbroker is one of the picks on this site.
Grabagun, Buds, and Classic Firearms.
I agree and these three should have been at the top along with Aim Surplus and SOG or Southern Ohio Gun. The author says he got into guns starting with YouTube videos. That means about 2008 at the very earliest. I got into guns in 1982 and started at the gun and knife shows. Also am a master reloader and bullet caster with over 30 years experience. I am also a armorer on many makes and models and a amateur gunsmith. I'm thinking people who write these reviews need a slice of humble pie. Just a suggestion and maybe some help........
Thanks for the feedback, John. Unfortunately, we only have a limited amount of space so we can't list every online gun retailer. But we appreciate your suggestions.
Buds and Classic are the two I felt should have been on the list.
Wasn’t going to reply here until you listed 3 places I’ve bought guns online!
Grab-A-Gun has GREAT prices and inventory. I’ve bought a few guns from them and it’s always been great.
Classic Firearms has good inventory and decent prices plus shipping is good.
And Bud’s is almost local, so I shop there just because. Plus Hickok45 would recommend Bud’s.
GunBroker is ok, and GunsDotCom seems to be pricing used guns for almost MSRP.
Thanks for writing this list tho! And thanks to those replying giving me other places to shop.
Optics Planet has guns now also, I haven't used them myself. The best one I have used is Grab-a-gun, they are fast, big list of FFL's in your area, wide selection except for the current gun grab their inventory can run low or out.
PSA!
They are even better in their stores!
Stay away from BattleHawkArmory.com
They like to show "in stock" on things they don't actually have in stock. Then YOU have to follow up with them, to find out why your order hasn't arrived after 3 weeks. Only to be told "sorry it's out of stock".
These are the nicest stores without any stock.
Why is there no glocks in stock anywhere?
There is at engage armament in rockville md
