Frequently Asked Questions

LSS is an online retailer of ammunition and firearms to customers across the continental US. We started in 2021 with the goal of providing hard to find ammo and have since grown to provide firearms as well. Since we are online only, we've partnered with Spring Guns & Ammo in Spring, Texas to handle all of our local pickups and local firearm transfers. All transfers done locally through Spring Guns & Ammo are considered "In House" and incur no transfer fee.

** We can only ship ammuntion to the lower 48 states due to shipping restrictions. No orders will be sent to Alaska, Hawaii or other outside territories.

** No PO Boxes! All ammo shipments are sent through FedEx Ground, Long Guns by FedEx Ground & handguns by FedEx Express 2-Day.

Q: Where are you located? I'd like to come pick up a product that you have.

A: LSS does not have a storefront, only a warehouse, so we're not able to do in person sales. We can ship ammo directly to your door where allowed or it can be picked up at a Spring Guns & Ammo location. Firearms can either be picked up at a Spring Guns & Ammo location or shipped to an FFL of your choosing. Items must be ordered through the Liberty website.

Q: Can I pay when I come to pick up a local pickup order?

A: Unfortunately no, since we don't have a storefront LSS cannot accept payment in person, only through our website.

Q: I'm a business or FFL in Texas and would like to avoid paying sales tax and/or credit card fees for a purchase. Do you accept any other payment methods besides debit or credit card?

A: We can accept Postal Money Orders, but you must wait for it to clear our bank before your order will be shipped. You'll also need to provide a copy of your FFL and/or Texas Sales and Use Tax Permit to Sales@libertyshooting.com. Please call us and confirm which items your looking for so we can work up pricing and send you a quote.

We understand it's a bit of a hassle, but it's more difficult to put a stop payment request on a PO Money Order. Just helps keep people honest! PO money orders can be mailed to our coporate office address at 4405 Spring Cypress Rd, Suite 200, Spring, TX 77388.

Q: I'm on the checkout screen trying to place an order but it says there's has been an error and to call you for help? What does this mean?

A: This is not a website error. 99% of the time, this means you've typed something incorrectly when filling in either your address or credit card information. Please double check everything you've entered and make sure it's exactly as your bank or credit card company has it listed. Otherwise the transaction may not be approved as the card processor may reject it or even think it's fraud. You don't need to put any spaces in for your credit card number either, that's done automatically. 

Remember that sometimes the AutoFill on your computer can input things in the wrong places. Please double check what has been entered before submitting it. Entering things manually is always the best bet.

For Local Pickups

• 1. If you are in the Spring, Texas area and would like to pick up your order, you may use coupon code LOCALPICKUP (all one word), on the checkout screen to remove all shipping charges. This will let us know that you intend to pick up your order in person at an SGA location. Local Firearm pickups are considered "in house" and incur no transfer fee.
• 2. Ammunition and Firearm orders may be picked up locally through Spring Guns & Ammo once ordered through the LSS website. There are 3 locations to choose from: Spring, The Woodlands and Crosby. You can visit springgunsandammo.com for location information. Please send an email to Sales@libertyshooting.com  with your order number in the subject and indicate with location you'd like to pick up your order at. If it's in our stock, we can have it at the Spring location within 24 hours. If your order is coming from another warehouse or we need take it to another SGA location, it can take 48 to 72 hours for it to arrive, longer if during a holiday season. You will receive an email notifying you that your order is ready to pick up once your order has been processed and delivered to the pickup location.
• 3. All firearms not picked up locally through Spring Guns & Ammo must be shipped to an FFL that you choose during the checkout process. If your preferred FFL is not listed, send us an email with their name, phone number, email and website if available to sales@libertyshooting.com. We will contact them to obtain a copy of their FFL and have them added to our FFL list for future use. This can take around 24 hours. If you don't want to wait for them to be added to our list because your worried the firearm you want may be sold before then, you can choose an SGA location as the FFL and send us a note along with the FFL information and we'll update the receiving FFL in your order once it's been added.

State Requirements For Ammo Shipments

California

All ammo must go to an FFL dealer to run a background check prior to being released to the customer. You can input the FFL's address as the shipping location as long as we can verify it through an online business listing or website. Otherwise, other verification methods may be needed.

The only exception is Class 03 C&R FFL holders that have a CoE. You can email us a copy at Sales@libertyshooting.com with your order number in the subject to speed up delivery.

Connecticut

Effective April 1, 2014 you will be required to have either a pistol permit, eligibility certificate for pistol or revolver or an eligibility certificate for long guns in order to purchase firearms and ammunition. These must be uploaded when you place your order.

Illinois

Any resident may purchase ammunition from a person within or outside of Illinois if shipment is by United States mail or by a private express carrier authorized by federal law to ship ammunition. Any resident purchasing ammunition within or outside the State of Illinois must provide the seller with a copy of his or her valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card or valid concealed carry license and either his or her Illinois driver's license or Illinois State Identification Card prior to the shipment of the ammunition. The ammunition may be shipped only to an address on either of those 2 documents. They can be uploaded when placing your order.

Massachusetts

A Massachusetts resident must have a valid firearms license to possess ammunition. There’s a twist… Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 140 Section 122 defines ammunition as:

“cartridges or cartridge cases, primers (igniter), bullets or propellant powder designed for use in any firearm, rifle or shotgun”

In other words, you must have a firearms license to even possess an ammunition component. You must upload this with your order for delivery.

New Jersey

Handgun Ammo Only: You must possess a Firearms Purchaser Identification Card, Permit to Purchase a Handgun, or Permit to Carry a Handgun to complete the purchase and upload it with your order.

New York

The in-person requirement of Section 50 of the New York SAFE Act states that all purchased ammo must be shipped to a valid FFL holder OR a registered seller of ammunition. While that means we cannot ship directly to your door, we can ship to an FFL holder or registered seller of your choosing. New York state requires that a background check be ran before releasing the ammunition to the customer.

Washinton D.C.

We are not able to ship to D.C., unfortunately the laws surrounding ammunition in D.C. make it almost impossible to fulfill an online order. You essentially need to purchase it in person at local licensed retailer to have what amounts to a background check and allowing them to collect tax on your purchase.
