Order #****** Company took an order for 3 firearms that were never shipped. There was a clerical error on the companys part that a firearm was shipped to a different individual with the same name as mine. The company refunded 2/3 of the firearms cost. The company refuses to refund the remaining balance and will not answer my calls. The refund process has been ongoing for a year. I am always told that a check will be sent out on Friday however I never receive a check. When I call back the refund was never even added to the order in their system.Initial Complaint

Placed 2 orders (order numbers are ****** and ******). Credit cards were charged immediately. After a few days, I send emails through their website in addition to regular emails. After no response, I called. I inquired about both orders and was told all items were not in stock. I requested to cancel both orders. The person I spoke with stated it would take about 3 days to see the money back on my cards. Both orders show "refunded" for their status. I have yet to see any money back on my cards.Business Response

Hello,
This customer requested a refund on 1/25/23 by phone and we issued the refund on our end that day. Refunds can take 2-7 business days to reflect on the bank or credit statement. I have attached copies of both refund transactions receipts from 1/25/23.
Thank you

I purchased an optic and was billed immediately for my purchase. After 2 weeks of not receiving my item, I contacted to company by email to get an explanation. I was told the item was back ordered until March. I have asked the company for a refund since they didnt list the item as being out of stock. I have not received a response. I also tried to call the company and I get a recording that my call cant be completed as dialed. Im getting the run around and I want my money back.Business Response

I placed an order for a new pair of boots in March 2022. My credit card was charged and I was under the assumption I would receive my boots in the coming week. My order number for reference is ******. After not receiving my boots two weeks later I called customer service and was told they were back ordered and would be at my doorstep within the next few weeks. Another three weeks went by with no delivery and I called back. I was then told it would be another two weeks (early June). End of June after still not receiving my boots I called back again and after voicing my frustration they refunded my shipping charge and I was told they would be here In July. In August I called back again after STILL not getting them and once again told it'd be another month. I gave it two and just called again today. I was put on hold for 20 minutes just to be told I should receive them in February… 11 months after I ordered them and being charged without being notified they were ever back ordered until I called weeks after the order was placed!!! I asked if there was any discount or anything they could do and was told no, they already refunded my shipping charge months prior. Unbelievable company that I will never do business with again.Initial Complaint

On July 15th I placed an order for uniform pants and shirts. The sub-total for the order was $189.98. The company charged $12.99 for shipping and handling and $12.18 for sales tax. The total for the order was $215.15. As a resident of Pennsylvania and I am exempt from paying sales tax for clothing to include uniform clothing. I reached out to the company on 07-21-2022 and was advised that their website automatically charges tax for all products including clothing. I advised them that I am a Pennsylvania resident and that their business is based out of Pennsylvania and clothing is tax exempt. The customer service representative told me that she is not authorized to refund me the sales tax. I was advised that she would look into it but, if they can’t refund the money taken for sales tax then I would not be refunded the money. My concern is that this company automatically charges sales tax for online orders to thousands of Pennsylvania residents for clothing and they’re profiting from this practice.Initial Complaint

I placed an order for weight plates for a weighted vest. They charged my card immediately and sent me an order confirmation. I also paid extra for shipping. It has now been 2 weeks and my order has not shipped. I have called, and emailed multiple times asking for the status of my order with no reply. I've now read dozens of complaints online of this company doing the same thing to other people and I feel like I was completely scammed. I need to have my order refunded or the product shipped immediately.Business Response

Good Morning *******,
Per your BBB complaint, we will be canceling and refunding your order. Please allow 3-5 business days for the funds to return to your account. We apologize for the inconvenience, your vest plates were still on order with ****. Your initial contact didn't get a response due to an error in our system.
Thank you
