Policies

WMR Firearms will abide by all laws and BATFE regulations applicable to firearms. Orders for firearms will only be shipped to BATFE licensees and cannot be shipped without a signed copy of the receiver’s Federal Firearms License in hand prior to shipping.

If your FFL is not yet on file with us, we will hold your prepaid order until it arrives as long as it’s sent in a timely fashion (no more than 10 business days with an understanding consideration around holiday time).

We accept FFLs that are mailed, faxed, or sent by email.

If there is any “unadvertised” mechanical or cosmetic problem that is unseen in any photograph with an item I send you, please email WMR Firearms within a THREE DAY NON SHOOTING examination period and the problem will be taken care of. If an issue is unable to be repaired due to availability of parts, WmR will issue refund. WMR Firearms will pay shipping costs if the item needs to be returned due to a legitimate problem mentioned above. After the THREE DAY NON SHOOTING examination period, the gun is yours and can only be returned at our discretion and under extraordinary circumstances. The firearm may only be taken apart by a certified gunsmith. WMR Firearms will not accept a return if it has been tampered with by anyone other than a certified gunsmith.

Besides just a rifle or pistol, we guarantee that what you are buying from us is an assurance of quality and value. An assurance that the piece you paid for has received a preliminary cleaning visual inspection — an assurance that a Very Good Condition rifle is, indeed in very good OR BETTER condition. We don’t charge a “hand pick” fee because all of our items are hand picked and individually described in detail.

Our GUARANTEE IS:
If WMR Firearms sells you anything that is not as good as or better than described (mechanics and cosmetics), we will refund your purchase price and pay shipping both ways.

We do not headspace or take metallurgical tests of each specimen. If we did, each piece would be priced out of market to you. We expect the collector to know that he should have any surplus firearm checked by a competent gunsmith before taking it to the range. We do, however, check mechanical function as far as possible.

Unlike the big distributors and most dealers, we do not sell guns based on a wide condition range (like Good to Very Good), but grade each firearm individually, noting the wood, metal, bore condition, matching numbers, pitting, and even the presence or absence of items such as cleaning rods for item we are selling. If it is not seen in the pictures, it will not be included unless specifically stated in writing. When it comes to buying a shooter/collector firearm, bore condition is of utmost importance. WMR Firearms takes care in describing the bore in detail.

WmR will not sand, re-blue, buff, or polish firearms. We believe that military and or historical items should remain the way that they are received. We will clean items in order to obtain the best information in order to accurately grade or describe an item. WmR may add a non-permanent highlight such as white grease pencil or even crayon to assist in photographing proof marks or maker’s parks. Any product used will be immediately reversible by a competent gunsmith or historian without permanent effect to the item.

Rating System

While we take great care to individually describe each piece, our general criteria and rating system is:

  • New: Unissued
  • Excellent: Slightly used, few or no dings in wood, bluing remaining, slight edge wear possible
  • Very good: Some dings in wood, most bluing remaining, no pitting unless noted
  • Good: Dinged/some damage to wood, but no cracks. Some bluing, may have minor pitting.
  • Fair: Well worn

Thanks for thinking of us and thanks for your patronage!
