Buying a Gun online at scoutearms.com is easy and we are here to help every step of the way.

 

These Terms of Use require the use of arbitration on an individual basis to resolve disputes, rather than jury trials or class actions.

 

These Terms of Use apply to all users of the scoutearms.com Site, including without limitation users who are Buyers (as defined below), Dealers (as defined below), contributors of content, information and other materials or services on the site (each a “User” and collectively “Users”). By acknowledging your assent to these Terms of Use or by placing an order for products or services from the scoutearms.com Site, you affirm that you are of legal age to enter into this agreement, and you accept and are legally bound by these Terms of Use. If you are a Dealer, you are also subject to the scoutearms.com Dealer Terms of Use.

 

You may not use the scoutearms.com Site if you (a) do not agree to and comply with these Terms of Use, or (b) are prohibited from accessing or using the scoutearms.com Site or any of the scoutearms.com Site’s contents, goods or services by applicable Law (as defined below).

 

We reserve the right to modify or terminate these Terms of Use, or modify the services we provide, at anytime.

 

1. Scoutearms.com Online Marketplace.  

a. Scoutearms.com has developed and operates an online marketplace at the scoutearms.com Site for the sale of Guns (as defined below), ammunition, optics, magazines and certain other products and accessories (collectively, “Products”) to Buyers where legally permissible in the United States of America, but excluding U.S. territories, which operates in part with the use of a network of authorized FFL Dealers (as defined below) who are licensed to transfer Guns and have agreed with scoutearms.com, among other things, to list and make their inventory available for sale through the scoutearms.com Site. Each such FFL Dealer who participates as a member of the Scouotearms.com network of authorized dealers is referred to in these Terms of Use as a “Dealer”. Each Dealers’ participation in the network of dealers authorized by scoutearms.com is subject to the terms and conditions of scoutearms.com’s Network Dealer Terms of Use. In order for a Gun to be transferred to a Buyer, the transfer must be completed by a firearms dealer who holds a valid Federal Firearms License (an “FFL Dealer”) (which FFL Dealer may or may not be a member of the scoutearm.s.com authorized network of Dealers), and the transfer must be affected in accordance with all applicable Laws.  The term “Buyer” as used herein means any natural person who both accesses and uses the scoutearms.com Site and is a potential or actual purchaser of a Product from the scoutearms.com Site.  The term “Gun” means a firearm as defined in 18 United States Code Section 921(a).

 

2. Purchase and Sale of Products Generally. 

 

a. You agree that any order you place on the scoutearms.com Site is an offer to buy all Products listed in your order, subject to these Terms of Use. All orders are subject to acceptance by scoutearms.com and scoutearms.com is under no obligation to accept any order or otherwise sell the Products to you. Scoutearms.com may choose, at its sole discretion, not to accept orders, even after we send you a confirmation email with your order number and details of the items you have ordered.  NO SALE OF A GUN IS COMPLETE UNTIL THE GUN HAS BEEN TRANSFERRED BY AN FFL DEALER TO THE PURCHASER IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW AND ALL APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS OF THESE TERMS OF USE HAVE BEEN SATISFIED. If the FFL Dealer is unable to transfer a Gun to a Buyer in accordance with applicable Law, see Section 6 below.

 

b. Scoutearms.com will use commercially reasonable efforts to verify the availability of requested Products in a timely manner. scoutearms.com tries to maintain an accurate listing of inventory available but is ultimately dependent upon its network of suppliers to provide accurate inventory availability information. If a Buyer places an order for a firearm(s) and other accessory items, the accessories will be put in a hold status until availability of the firearm is confirmed. If for any reason the firearm is unavailable and the purchase cannot be completed, the entire order, including accessories and non-firearm items, will be canceled and the Buyer notified. All other orders may be partially fulfilled and any applicable refunds will be given to the Buyer.

c. Not all Products are available in all areas due to federal, state, or local Laws. scoutearms.com reserves the right to limit Product quantities. 

d. Your purchase and receipt of all Products is subject to compliance with all federal, state and local laws, statutes, ordinances, rules and regulations (“Laws”). By proceeding with the purchase of any Products offered on the scoutearms.com Site, the Buyer certifies: (i) the Buyer has reviewed all applicable Laws related to the use, possession, purchase and/or ownership of the Products; (ii) the Buyer is legally permitted to use, possess, purchase and/or own the Products; and (iii) the Buyer does not intend to transfer any Products in violation of any applicable Laws. BUYER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR COMPLYING WITH ALL LAWS APPLICABLE TO THE ORDER, SHIPMENT, DELIVERY, SALE, TRANSFER, POSSESSION AND USE OF ALL PRODUCTS ORDERED BY BUYER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, GUNS, AMMUNITION AND ANY OTHER PRODUCTS RESTRICTED BY LAW.
