Frequently Asked Questions

What are the main types of ammunition scams to watch out for?

The two primary ammunition scams involve fake online sellers posing as legitimate companies like Palmetto State Armory, Hornady, and Aguila, and the resale of stolen ammunition. Both methods aim to defraud consumers, either by taking payment without shipping goods or by selling tracked, stolen products.

How can I avoid falling for fake ammunition websites?

Always navigate directly to the official website of the ammunition brand or retailer. Be suspicious of ads or emails that look similar but may have slightly different URLs. If a website claims to have all ammunition types readily available, it's a significant red flag.

What are the risks associated with buying stolen ammunition?

Buying stolen ammunition can lead to legal issues, especially since manufacturers are increasingly using tracking technology like Bluetooth stickers in their packaging. If this tracked ammunition is found in your possession, it could implicate you in the theft.

Are there any specific indicators of a fraudulent ammunition seller?

Yes, look for claims of having 'everything available' at unrealistically low prices. Also, if you are ordering components like primers or powder, legitimate sellers will charge hazmat fees for shipping hazardous materials; their absence is a warning sign.
