Shipping Info

Shipping destinations:

  • We ship within the U.S.A. ONLY

Shipping times:

  • Most orders ship out within 1-5 business days after order is fully processed. However due to the uncertainty of production times of night vision and thermal optics, it can take longer. You will be notified if this is the case.
  • Most items due to their high price, will require signature confirmation.
  • Shipping time might vary depending on location, shipment method and other factors.

Shipping cost:

  • I always have Free Standard Shipping. You can choose a faster shipping method at checkout for an additional cost.
  • Most items ship with signature required due to the cost of the item. 

Additional Info:

  • If you have purchased an optic that is on backorder or out of stock, I will personally email or text you at the number provided to make sure you saw the ETA/Lead Time in the listing. Every year in the Fall and Winter months, these optics can be very hard to find due to high demand. If an optic is purchased and is out of stock, I will notify you immediately. Some optics are hand built and tested upon order which can take 2-14 days depending on the optic and current demand. Occasionally a part will become backordered thus extended the shipping ETA in which you would be notified right away as well. I try my best to keep all optics in stock, and make it a priority to inform you if they are not. High demand of these optics makes inventory a real challenge, especially in the Fall and Winter months.
