Shipping & Order Fulfillment Policies

Section 1.1: Unverifiable or Undeliverable Shipping Addresses

To ensure the secure delivery of merchandise and prevent costly return-to-facility incidents, Maryland Munitions Inc. utilizes automated address verification systems synced with major logistics networks (UPS, FedEx, and USPS). If a customer's shipping address is flagged by a carrier as "unverifiable" or "undeliverable," order processing will be automatically paused, and the order will be placed on a temporary shipping hold and further investigated. Common Causes for Address Verification Flags

  • Incomplete Information: Absence of necessary secondary identifiers such as apartment, suite, unit, or building numbers.

  • Database Mismatch: The address is newly established or not currently recognized by the Global Address Database. (boarder addressed)

  • Carrier Restrictions: The destination is designated as a "non-delivery zone" for specific freight or commercial ground services. Resolution Protocols Orders on hold for address verification require direct outreach to the customer via email or phone provided. The fulfillment team must secure one of the following resolutions before releasing the shipment: 1. Address Confirmation/Correction: A verified physical street address including all necessary unit or suite numbers. 2. Alternative Delivery Location: A different physical address (such as a verified place of business) if the primary residence is consistently flagged by commercial carriers. Internal Note: Will not finalize or print shipping labels for flagged orders until the updated details are manually verified in the system. Once corrected, tracking information should be generated and emailed to the customer immediately. For escalating verification issues, contact Customer Support Management at 443-522-2364 or orders@mmiammo.com

Section 1.2: Carrier Selection & Shipping Restrictions

  • Standard Allocation: To maintain flat-rate and free shipping thresholds, the fulfillment department will automatically select the most cost-effective carrier from our primary logistics companies (FedEx, UPS, or USPS).

  • Hazardous Materials & Ammunition: In compliance with federal and postal regulations, ammunition and other legally restricted items cannot be shipped via the United States Postal Service (USPS). All such orders will be routed exclusively through FedEx or UPS ground networks.

  • Special Shipping Requests: Customers requesting a specific carrier or expedited services must contact customer service prior to placing an order. These requests are subject to additional surcharges based on market rates.

Section 1.3: Package Weight Limitations & Split Shipments

  • Weight Ceiling: To prevent carrier-enforced heavy-package surcharges and maintain standard shipping rates, individual packages may not exceed 50 lbs.

  • Multi-Package Distribution: Orders exceeding 50 lbs. will automatically be split and distributed across multiple packages or separate carriers to optimize handling costs.

  • Bulk & Freight Exemptions: The 50 lbs. weight ceiling does not apply to items sold by the pallet or large bulk orders that justify standard freight delivery. Customers requesting that a non-freight order not be split must arrange this prior to ordering and will assume liability for the carrier’s heavy-handling fees.

Section 1.4: Special Packaging & Delivery Requests

  • Discreet Packaging Tape: Standard orders are sealed using branded Maryland Munitions tape (which does not contain explicit keywords like "guns" or "ammo"). Customers may request plain brown or clear packing tape at no additional cost by contacting fulfillment prior to shipment.

  • Optional Adult Signature: By default, standard shipments do not require an adult signature at delivery if state law does not require it. Customers may request an "Adult Signature Required" stamp on their package free of charge by notifying fulfillment prior to order processing.

  • Mandatory Adult Signature: Our company reserves the right to automatically apply mandatory adult signature requirements to shipments containing high-value items or highly regulated merchandise to protect against transit theft. Customers will be notified via email when this protocol is applied.

  • Ammunition Lot Requests: Customers seeking specific ammunition production lots must contact fulfillment prior to ordering either by phone or email. If the requested lot is available in current inventory, it will be allocated to the order at no additional charge.

Section 1.5: Address Validation & Prohibited Destinations

  • Data Integrity Requirements: Customers must provide valid, active physical addresses, emails, and phone numbers at checkout. Fake or inaccurate contact info that prevents communication regarding order issues may result in fulfillment delays or cancellation.

  • P.O. Box Restrictions: Under federal law, USPS will not accept or transport ammunition. Consequently, ammunition orders routed to a P.O. Box address cannot be fulfilled. Customers will be required to provide an alternative physical delivery address; failure to do so will result in the order being archived under standard timeline policies.

  • In-Store Pickup Protocols: Customers may elect to pick up orders at our retail fulfillment facility located at 84 Dupont Rd, Martinsburg, West Virginia. The "In-Store Pickup" option must be selected at checkout. If a shipping address is entered that indicates a geographical mismatch (excessive distance from the facility), customer service will flag the order to verify intent and collect any necessary sales tax or shipping adjustments.

Section 1.6: Automatic Knife Shipment Agreement

  • Switchblade Shipments: Maryland Munitions requires customers to sign an acknowledgment agreeing that they are federally permitted to have an automatic knife delivered to them. If the customer refuses to sign or does not meet the criteria to be federally able to receive shipments of automatic knives they must have their automatic knife either refunded or shipped to a Bona-fide dealer of weapons or cutlery. See compliance form example below:

Maryland Munitions Inc.

Automatic Knife Opening Acknowledgement Form

IN COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL STATUTES, Maryland Munitions Inc. requests that you read carefully the requirements set forth below, and sign this acknowledgement form prior to your purchase or receipt of any automatic opening knife from our company.

By placing an order from us for any automatic opening knife product, you agree that you meet any or all of the following criteria established by Federal law.

Federal Law Restrictions & Exceptions

Federal law prohibits the shipment of automatic knives across state lines, with the following strict exceptions:

  1. Federal Government: To civilian or Armed Forces supply or procurement officers and employees of the Federal Government ordering, procuring, or purchasing such knives in connection with the activities of the Federal Government.

  2. Active Duty Military: To an active Armed Forces member or employee acting in the performance of his or her duty.

  3. National Guard & Militia: To supply or procurement officers of the National Guard, the Air National Guard, or militia of a State, Territory, or the District of Columbia ordering, procuring, or purchasing such knives in connection with the activities of such organization.

  5. Dealers & Manufacturers: To manufacturers of such knives or bona fide dealers therein in connection with any shipment made pursuant to an order from any person designated in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Please Note: Maryland Munitions Inc. will not sell automatic opening knives to any customer unless such sale or receipt of Product Service return is made in compliance with one or more of the above conditions.

Customer Representation and Certification

The undersigned customer/owner recognizes and acknowledges that it is their responsibility as the owner or buyer to ascertain and obey all applicable laws (local, state, federal, and international) in regard to the possession or purchase of any item from Maryland Munitions Inc.

We hereby represent and certify that our purchase or ownership of automatic opening knives from Maryland Munitions Inc. meets one or more of the criteria set forth above and agree to use these knives in connection with duties as described above in sections 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Section 1.7: Inventory Shortages & Out-of-Stock Resolutions

  • Partial Shortages: If the fulfillment department discovers an inventory discrepancy resulting in a missing item, the customer will be contacted via email and offered a comparable product substitution or a line-item refund.

  • Major Shortages: If an order is missing the majority of its component inventory, the order will be canceled in its entirety, a full refund will be issued, and a formal notification will be transmitted to the customer.

Section 1.8: Customer Initiated Order Substitutions-Additions

  • Customer Initiated Substitutions: In the event that a customer wishes to substitute an item on their order for another after the order has been placed, the customer must contact Maryland Munitions prior to the order’s shipment if they wish to avoid a restocking fee. If addition payment is required due to price discrepancies between substituted products then the customer will have to render additional payment via telephone. If the proposed substitution is less than the value of what has been ordered, then Maryland Munitions will refund the customer the price difference. If when Maryland Munitions issues a refund, that the order value drops below our free shipping thresehold Maryland Munitions retains the right to collect our flat-rate shipping fee.

  • Orders Changed Post Shipment: A customer may not amend an order once their package has left the Maryland Munitions Facility. If a customer wishes to amend an order after it has been packaged, but prior to it leaving our facility Maryland Munitions will alter the order as desired, but will need to collect an additional processing fee. The fee collected will be 20% of the original order’s retail value.

  • Order Additions: If a customer requests an addition be made to their oder prior to it’s packaging, they must contact Maryland Munitions via telephone so that we can collect the additional payment needed for new items on the order.

Section 1.9: Return, Refund, and Restocking Policy

  • Standard Discretionary Returns: Returns requested for reasons other than shipping errors or damaged goods are accepted within our standard return window, provided the customer pays all return freight costs. Discretionary returns are subject to a 20% restocking fee based on the original retail value of the product.

  • Order Discrepancies & Shipping Errors: If an item arrives damaged or does not match the invoice, Maryland Munitions will issue a prepaid return shipping label and restock the inventory free of charge. The customer remains responsible for physically tendering the package to the designated carrier.

  • Non-Returnable Categories: Due to the unique nature of certain product classifications, all sales are final on items marked as: 

○ Military Surplus, Police Trade-Ins, Vintage Merchandise, or Collectibles. 

  • Photographic Evidence Requirements: To initiate a claim regarding a damaged or incorrect order, customers must provide clear photographic documentation of the package condition and contents. These images will be audited against our internal packing logs to determine carrier vs. facility liability.

  • Case-by-Case Arbitration: All order complaints, returns, and disputes are handled via human arbitration on a case-by-case basis. Maryland Munitions reserves the right to refuse any return if the inventory is deemed un-restockable, or to modify standard policy terms to equitably resolve a specific customer concern.

Section 1.10: Alternative Distribution Channels (Wholesale & Events)

  • Wholesale Purchases: All commercial wholesale transactions must be initiated in person or via telephone. Commercial accounts seeking tax-exempt status must submit a valid State Tax ID certificate via email to have sales tax permanently waived on future online orders.

  • Gun Show Pickups: Maryland Munitions maintains an active presence at various Mid-Atlantic regional trade shows. Customers may coordinate with customer service prior to an event to have online or phone orders brought directly to a scheduled gun show, allowing the customer to circumvent standard shipping fees.

Section 1.11: Address Validation & Prohibited Destinations

  • Data Integrity Requirements: Customers must provide valid, active physical addresses, emails, and phone numbers at checkout. Fake or inaccurate contact info that prevents communication regarding order issues may result in fulfillment delays or cancellation.

  • P.O. Box Restrictions: Under federal law (specifically the Gun Control Act of 1968), the United States Postal Service (USPS) is legally prohibited from accepting or transporting firearms, ammunition, or certain regulated accessories. Because P.O. Boxes are serviced exclusively by the USPS, ammunition orders routed to a P.O. Box address cannot be fulfilled.

  • P.O. Box Resolution Protocol: Affected customers must reply to company notifications with either a verifiable, non-P.O. Box physical street address or the name and physical street address of a licensed

  • Federal Firearms License (FFL) holder. Failure to provide an alternate address will result in the order being archived under standard timeline policies.

  • In-Store Pickup Protocols: Customers may elect to pick up orders at our retail fulfillment facility located at 84 Dupont Rd, Martinsburg, West Virginia. The "In-Store Pickup" option must be selected at checkout.

  • Geographical Mismatch Audits: If a shipping address is entered that indicates a geographical mismatch making in-person pickup impractical, customer service will flag the order to verify intent and execute one of the following balance adjustments before direct shipment can occur: 

○ Sales Tax Adjustment: Pickup orders are exempt from sales tax because West Virginia exempts tax on ammunition. If an order is converted to a direct shipment, Maryland Munitions is legally required to collect destination-based state sales tax. Customers must pay the balanced tax over the phone.

 ○ Shipping Fee Adjustment: Converting a pickup order to a direct shipment requires adding a standard shipping fee of $10.99 to the order total. This fee will be completely waived if the customer chooses to modify and expand their order to cross the $250 Free Shipping threshold.

 ○ Combined Shipping & Sales Tax Adjustment: Mismatched pickup orders requiring both adjustments must pay the combined balance over the phone. The $10.99 shipping fee portion can still be waived if the customer adds items to reach the $250 Free Shipping threshold, though destination sales tax will still apply. 

○ No Additional Payment (Straight Conversion): If a distant pickup order is approved for direct shipment without requiring additional freight fees or tax adjustments based on specific lane criteria, the customer must simply reply via email to confirm their physical street address on file before packing and tracking are finalized.

Section 1.12: Regional Sales Tax Nexus

  • Legal Obligation: Maryland Munitions Inc. collects and remits state and local sales tax on all taxable purchases destined for the following jurisdictions: Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, and Washington.

  • Economic Nexus Compliance: Under current interstate commerce and "Economic Nexus" laws, out-of-state retailers are legally obligated to collect and remit local sales tax once specific sales volume thresholds are met within a target state.

  • Origin vs. Destination Rules: While our physical facility is located in West Virginia (where state sales tax is not applied to ammunition and components), tax exemptions only apply to orders remaining within or physically picked up in West Virginia. Per tax regulations, the tax rate is determined strictly by the destination delivery address, not the point of origin. Consequently, sales tax cannot be manually removed or refunded on orders shipping to nexus states.

Section 1.13: Inventory Shortages, Out-of-Stock Resolutions, and Substitutions

  • Partial Shortages & Substitutions: If the fulfillment department discovers an inventory discrepancy or unforeseen depletion resulting in a missing item, the customer will be contacted via email and offered a comparable product substitution or a line-item refund. Orders will not be unilaterally substituted without written customer consent.

  • Partial Refunds: If a substitution is rejected or unavailable, a partial refund will be processed immediately to the original payment method for the unfulfillable line item, and the remainder of the order will ship.

  • Major Shortages & Website Errors: If an order is missing the majority of its component inventory due to a website inventory sync error, the order will be canceled in its entirety. A full refund will be immediately issued to the customer's original payment method, accompanied by a formal email notification.

Section 1.14: Order Archival Timelines (Unresponsive Accounts)

  • 60-Day Unresponsive Window: If an order is placed on hold due to compliance issues, missing transaction info, address validation errors, or restricted destination flags, customer service will attempt contact via email and telephone.

  • Inventory Release: If no response is received within 60 calendar days, the order will lose fulfillment priority and be archived. Purchased inventory will be released back into active stock and made available for public purchase.

  • Final Notice & Inactive Status: At the end of the outreach cycle, a final communication will be issued notifying the customer that the order has been moved to an inactive status due to a severe lack of response.

  • Post-Archival Resolution: If a customer contacts Maryland Munitions after the 60-day window, the transaction can still be completed. However, if the original inventory has sold out during the inactive period, a refund or substitution will be issued for the missing components.

Section 2.1: Restricted Edged Weapons and Age Verifications (Alabama)

  • Age Restrictions on Bowie Knives: Under Alabama state law, the sale, transfer, or shipment of a bowie knife (or any knife of like kind or description) to individuals under the age of 18 is strictly prohibited.

  • Compliance Review and Hold Protocols: All orders destined for Alabama containing restricted edged weapons will undergo a compliance review. If the purchaser’s age cannot be verified as 18 or older, the order will be placed on a temporary compliance hold.

  • Resolution Options for Restricted Knife Orders: For flagged transactions where age requirements cannot be verified, customer service must offer the customer the following options: 

○ Alternative Out-of-State Address: Rerouting the item to a valid delivery address in a state where these age restrictions do not apply. 

○ Order Cancellation: Canceling the restricted item from the order and issuing a full refund to the original method of payment.

Section 2.2: Hazardous Material Shipping Limits (Alabama)

  • Daily Residential Quantity Ceilings: To ensure strict adherence to state hazardous materials policies and carrier safety regulations, residential shipments to the state of Alabama are restricted to maximum daily volume thresholds per household. Daily shipments to a single residential address may not exceed: 

○ Smokeless Powder: A maximum of 20 lbs.

 ○ Black Powder: A maximum of 1 lb. 

○ Primers: A maximum count of 10,000 primers. 

  • Excess Volume Overrides: Customers with orders exceeding the legal daily cap may elect to redirect the surplus quantities to an alternative, valid physical address, provided that the secondary location also adheres to the daily residential cap. Alternatively, our shipping department will stagger fulfillment to remain within state regulations; this may result in the delivery of hazardous materials being spread across several days.

  • Commercial and Dealer Exemptions: These volume restrictions apply exclusively to residential deliveries. Verified commercial businesses and holders of a valid Federal Firearms License (FFL) operating from a commercial storefront are exempt from these daily residential limitations and are subject to separate standard commercial freight and hazardous materials transport laws.

Section 3.1: Ammunition and Hazardous Material Shipments to Alaska

  • Prohibition on Air Freight for Ammunition: In compliance with commercial courier policies and federal transport restrictions, ammunition is strictly prohibited from being transported via air freight. Due to the excessive and prohibitive costs associated with specialized sea freight, Maryland Munitions Inc. cannot ship ammunition directly to residential or standard commercial addresses within the state of Alaska under standard shipping rates.

  • Prohibition on Direct Shipment of Reloading Components: Under Federal Department of Transportation (DOT) hazardous materials regulations and carrier safety policies, small arms ammunition components—including smokeless powder, black powder, and primers—are legally barred from air transit channels. Consequently, direct shipment of these materials to an Alaskan address is strictly prohibited under any circumstances.

  • Mandatory Freight Forwarder Protocol: To facilitate the delivery of ammunition or reloading components destined for Alaska, customers must provide one of the following logistical alternatives: 

○ Continental U.S. Shipping Address: A valid, alternative physical delivery address located within the contiguous United States. 

○ Authorized Ocean Freight Forwarder: The verified commercial delivery address of a licensed ocean freight forwarder operating out of the continental United States.

  • Customer Responsibility for Forwarding Logistics: It is the sole responsibility of the customer to independently select, establish an account with, and coordinate all logistics through a continental U.S. freight forwarder capable of legally accepting, processing, and transporting hazardous materials via ocean vessel. The customer is entirely responsible for all ocean freight, handling, and hazardous materials processing fees assessed by their receiving agent.

  • Daily Freight Forwarder Hazardous Material Volume Limits: Even when routing items to an authorized continental U.S. freight forwarder, carrier safety policies dictate strict daily transactional limits. Daily shipments to a designated forwarder facility per customer may not exceed:

 ○ Smokeless Powder: A maximum of 20 lbs. 

○ Black Powder: A maximum of 1 lb. 

○ Primers: A maximum count of 10,000 primers. 

  • Compliance Holds and Cancellation: Orders containing ammunition or reloading components flagged with a standard Alaskan residential or business address will be placed on an immediate compliance hold. If a valid continental U.S. shipping address or authorized freight forwarder destination cannot be confirmed, the order will be canceled and fully refunded.

Section 3.2: Restricted Edged Weapons and Minor Verifications (Alaska)

  • Parental Consent Requirements for Bladed Weapons: Under regional statutes and shipping regulations governing the state of Alaska, the transfer and shipment of restricted edged weapons—specifically gravity knives and switchblades—to individuals under the age of 16 requires verified parental or legal guardian consent.

  • Compliance Hold and Verification Process: Orders destined for Alaska containing gravity knives or switchblades will undergo a standard compliance review. If the purchaser is determined to be under the age of 16, the order will be held pending legal verification.

  • Validation Protocol: To release a held order, a parent or legal guardian must reply directly to the company's compliance notification providing their full name, contact phone number, and an explicit, written statement granting permission for the shipment to be dispatched to the minor. Failure to provide verified guardian consent will result in the cancellation and refund of the restricted items.

Section 4.1: Hazardous Material Shipping Limits (Arizona)

  • Daily Residential Quantity Ceilings: To ensure strict adherence to safety regulations and carrier compliance policies, residential shipments of reloading components to the state of Arizona are restricted to maximum volume thresholds per household. Daily shipments to a single Arizona residential address may not exceed: 

○ Smokeless Powder: A maximum of 20 lbs.

 ○ Black Powder: A maximum of 1 lb.

 ○ Primers: A maximum count of 10,000 primers. 

  • Automated System Adjustments: Any residential order exceeding these specific volume thresholds will  be flagged automatically by the fulfilment team. To remain compliant, the fulfillment team will automatically split the order and stagger shipments across multiple delivery days.

  • Excess Volume Overrides: Customers with orders exceeding the legal daily cap may elect to redirect the surplus quantities to an alternative, valid physical shipping address, provided that the secondary location also adheres to the daily residential cap.

  • Commercial and Dealer Exemptions: These volume restrictions apply exclusively to residential deliveries. Verified commercial businesses and holders of a valid Federal Firearms License (FFL) operating from a commercial storefront are exempt from these daily residential limitations and are subject to separate standard commercial freight and hazardous materials transport laws.

Section 5.1: Restricted Edged Weapons and Age Verifications (Arkansas)

  • Age Restrictions on Deadly Weapons: Under Arkansas state law, the sale, transfer, or shipment of items categorized as deadly weapons (including certain specialized knives) to minors is strictly prohibited.

  • Compliance Review and Hold Protocols: All orders destined for Arkansas containing items classified as deadly weapons will undergo a standard compliance review. If the purchaser’s age cannot be verified as 18 or older, the order will be placed on a temporary compliance hold.

  • Resolution Options for Restricted Weapon Orders: For flagged transactions where the purchaser is a minor or age cannot be verified, customer service must offer the following options:

  • Mandatory Third-Party Exporter Routing: Maryland Munitions Inc. does not offer direct international shipping channels for regulated items. To legally process international transactions, orders must be routed through a domestic intermediary's infrastructure. Customers must personally fulfill the following statutory criteria: 

○ Contract an Authorized Exporter: Independently select and secure a contract with a U.S.-based, licensed firearms and ammunition exporter properly registered with the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Commerce.

 ○ Export Permit Coordination: Ensure the designated exporter coordinates all international legal protocols, including securing mandatory U.S. export permits and verifying compliance with the specific domestic import laws of the destination country. 

○ Exporter Verification: Provide Maryland Munitions Inc. with the licensed exporter’s corporate name, valid domestic FFL number, and verified U.S. shipping address to clear the items for domestic transport to the export facility.

  • Compliance Holds and Remediation: If a compliance assessment determines an item cannot be safely or legally imported into the destination country, the restricted portion of the order will be held. Customers must resolve the hold by providing a valid alternative delivery address within the United States or authorizing the cancellation of the restricted items for a full refund to the original method of payment.

Section 56.1: Hazardous Material Logistics and Licensing Regulations (Puerto Rico)

  • Air Freight Restrictions: Pursuant to Federal Department of Transportation (DOT) hazardous materials regulations and commercial carrier policies, small arms ammunition reloading components—specifically smokeless powder, black powder, and primers—are legally confined to domestic ground transit. Consequently, these materials are completely barred from air cargo channels and cannot be shipped directly to residential or standard commercial addresses in Puerto Rico.

  • Mandatory Ocean Freight Forwarding: To receive reloading components, customers must independently contract with a licensed ocean freight forwarder operating from a commercial facility within the continental United States. The customer is solely responsible for establishing the account and coordinating marine transit logistics with a forwarder certified to handle hazardous materials.

  • Territorial Credentialing Verification: In accordance with the Puerto Rico Weapons Act of 2020, ammunition components are heavily regulated. Before a shipment can be released to a continental forwarder, the customer must submit a clear copy of their valid Puerto Rico Weapons License ( Licencia de Armas ). To ensure statutory compliance, the submitted license must verify caliber compatibility, as territorial law permits individuals to acquire only ammunition or components that match the specific calibers of firearms registered to their name.

  • Licensed Intermediary Routing Alternative: Customers who do not possess a personal Licencia de Armas must arrange for their designated continental freight forwarder to deliver the hazardous materials directly to a locally licensed Federal Firearms License (FFL) dealer or gunsmith in Puerto Rico. The local dealer will log the components into the territorial electronic registry and execute the face-to-face transfer.

  • Daily Transactional Quantity Ceilings: Combined daily shipments routed to a verified continental freight forwarder bound for a single Puerto Rico customer transaction are subject to strict safety thresholds. Daily volume limits may not exceed: 

○ Smokeless Powder: A maximum of 20 lbs.

The customer assumes full financial responsibility for all ocean freight costs, hazardous materials processing fees, forwarder handling charges, and local dealer log-book pickup fees.

Section 56.2: Prohibited Cutlery and Bladed Weapons (Puerto Rico)

  • Statutory Importation Bans: Under Puerto Rico territorial law, strict statutory prohibitions govern the importation, sale, and possession of specific knife classifications and defensive bladed tools.

○ Thrusting and Concealed Blades: Daggers, stilettos, and camouflaged or disguised knives (including cane swords, belt-buckle knives, or hidden chassis blades).

 ○ Martial Arts and Pocket Weapons: Butterfly knives (balisongs) and related specialized pocket weapons.

Because of these air cargo exclusions, reloading powders and primers cannot be shipped directly to any standard residential or commercial address within American Samoa.

  • Mandatory Ocean Freight Forwarding: To receive these materials, customers must secure the services of a licensed ocean freight forwarder operating out of the continental United States. The customer is entirely responsible for setting up the account and arranging marine transport logistics with a forwarder certified to accept and process hazardous materials via ocean vessel.

  • Territorial Credentialing Verification: In strict compliance with the firearms and ammunition laws of American Samoa, ammunition components are heavily regulated. Before an order can be released to a continental forwarder, the customer must submit a clear, current copy of their official American Samoa Weapons License or Possession Permit.

  • Licensed Intermediary Routing Alternative: Customers who do not hold a personal territory firearms license must arrange for their continental freight forwarder to deliver the materials directly to a local licensed importer or Federally Licensed Firearms Dealer (FFL) within American Samoa to execute local registration and handle the face-to-face transfer.

  • Daily Transactional Quantity Ceilings: Shipments bound for an authorized continental freight forwarder are limited to maximum volume caps per transaction per day. Combined daily volumes may not exceed:

 ○ Smokeless Powder: A maximum of 20 lbs. 

○ Black Powder: A maximum of 1 lb. 

○ Primers: A maximum count of 10,000 primers.

Section 57.2: Prohibited Cutlery and Youth Protection Regulations (American Samoa)

  • Statutory Knife Prohibitions: Under American Samoa territorial law, strict guidelines govern the importation, sale, and possession of automatic cutlery. It is strictly prohibited to import, possess, or sell switchblades or any knives equipped with an automatic spring-release mechanism.

  • Minor Protection Restrictions: Territorial statutes strictly prohibit the sale or transfer of knives of any kind to a minor without the explicit, written authorization of the minor's parent or legal guardian.

  • Compliance Holds and Resolution: Any order containing an automatic knife, or any cutlery order placed by an unverified minor, will be placed on an immediate compliance hold. To clear the hold, the customer must supply a scanned copy of a parent or legal guardian's written authorization (if applicable), update the order to a valid shipping address in a state or territory where these laws do not apply, or cancel the item for a full refund to the original method of payment.

Section 58.1: Hazardous Material Logistics and Licensing Regulations (U.S Virgin Islands)

  • Air Freight Restrictions: Pursuant to Federal Department of Transportation (DOT) hazardous materials regulations and carrier safety policies, small arms ammunition components—specifically smokeless powder, black powder, and primers—are legally restricted to domestic ground transport. Due to these non-negotiable air cargo mandates, these items cannot be shipped directly to any standard residential or commercial address within the U.S. Virgin Islands.

  • Mandatory Ocean Freight Forwarding: To receive reloading components, customers must retain the services of a licensed ocean freight forwarder operating out of the continental United States. The customer is solely responsible for establishing the account and arranging marine transport logistics through a forwarder certified to handle hazardous materials via ocean vessel.

  • Territorial Credentialing Verification: In strict compliance with the firearms and ammunition laws of the territory, ammunition components are heavily regulated. Before an order can be released to a continental forwarder, the customer must submit a clear, current copy of their official U.S. Virgin Islands Firearms License.

  • Licensed Intermediary Routing Alternative: Customers who do not hold a personal territory firearms license must arrange for their continental freight forwarder to deliver the materials directly to a local Federally Licensed Firearms Dealer (FFL) within the U.S. Virgin Islands to manage local registration requirements and facilitate the face-to-face transfer.

  • Daily Transactional Quantity Ceilings: Shipments bound for an authorized continental freight forwarder are limited to strict daily volume thresholds per customer transaction. Combined daily volumes may not exceed: 

○ Smokeless Powder: A maximum of 20 lbs. 

○ Black Powder: A maximum of 1 lb. 

○ Primers: A maximum count of 10,000 primers. 

● System Adjustments and Customer Liability: Orders that exceed daily volume limits or feature standard territorial shipping addresses without valid licensing or FFL enrouting instructions will be held, adjusted, or canceled automatically. The customer is solely responsible for all ocean freight costs, hazardous materials processing fees, forwarder handling charges, and local dealer pickup fees.

Section 58.2: Prohibited Cutlery and Bladed Weapons (U.S. Virgin Islands)

○ Gravity Knives: Any knife with a blade that releases from the handle or chassis via the force of gravity or centrifugal force. 

○ Switchblades and Automatic Knives: Any knife featuring a blade that opens automatically by mechanical spring or button activation.

  • Compliance Holds and Order Remediation: Maryland Munitions Inc. cannot legally deliver restricted mechanical cutlery to a U.S. Virgin Islands address. Flagged orders will be placed on an immediate compliance hold. To resolve the restriction, the customer must redirect the item to an alternative address in a state or territory where these laws do not apply, or cancel the item for a full refund to the original method of payment.

Section 59.1: Hazardous Material Logistics and Licensing Regulations (Guam)

  • Air Freight Restrictions: Pursuant to Federal Department of Transportation (DOT) hazardous materials regulations and carrier safety policies, small arms ammunition components—specifically smokeless powder, black powder, and primers—are legally restricted to domestic ground transport. Because of these air transit exclusions, reloading powders and primers cannot be shipped directly to any standard residential or commercial address within Guam.

  • Mandatory Ocean Freight Forwarding: To receive these materials, customers must contract with a licensed ocean freight forwarder operating out of the continental United States. The customer is entirely responsible for establishing the account and arranging all transport logistics with a forwarder certified to safely and legally transport hazardous materials via ocean vessel.

  • Territorial Credentialing Verification: In compliance with territory regulations and local laws, ammunition and its core components are highly restricted items. Before an order can be released to a continental forwarder, the customer must submit a clear, current copy of their official Guam Firearms Identification (FOID) Card.

  • Licensed Intermediary Routing Alternative: Customers who do not hold a personal Guam Firearms ID card must arrange for their continental freight forwarder to deliver the materials directly to a local Federally Licensed Firearms Dealer (FFL) in Guam who will record the components into the local log-book and facilitate the face-to-face transfer.

  • Daily Transactional Quantity Ceilings: Combined daily volumes shipped to an authorized continental freight forwarder for a single customer transaction may not exceed: 

○ Smokeless Powder: A maximum of 20 lbs. 

○ Black Powder: A maximum of 1 lb. 

○ Primers: A maximum count of 10,000 primers. 

● Fulfillment Holds and Customer Liability: Orders exceeding these volume ceilings or featuring a standard Guam address without valid licensing or FFL enrouting instructions will be held, adjusted, or canceled automatically. The customer is solely responsible for all ocean freight fees, hazardous materials processing fees, forwarder handling charges, and local dealer pickup fees.

Section 59.2: Prohibited Cutlery and Bladed Weapons (Guam)

○ Balisongs (Butterfly Knives): Knives featuring two handles that counter-rotate around the tang to conceal or reveal the blade.

  • Compliance Resolution and Holds: Any order containing a switchblade or butterfly knife destined for Guam will be placed on an immediate compliance hold. To release the hold, the customer must update the delivery to an alternative shipping destination in a state or territory where these laws do not apply, or authorize the removal of the item from the invoice to receive a full refund to the original method of payment.

  • Online Orders and Margin Ceilings: To maintain uniform low pricing across the entire e-commerce infrastructure, Maryland Munitions Inc. operates on a high-volume, low-margin model. Consequently, the company does not offer additional individual discounts, promotional codes, or manual price adjustments for online web orders under any circumstances.

  • In-Person Facility Exemptions: In-store purchases executed face-to-face at the physical corporate facility do not incur the specialized logistical, picking, packing, and carrier transport costs inherent to online fulfillment.

○ Veterans: Requires presentation of a valid military ID, DD-214, or state-issued veteran designation.

 ○ Seniors: Requires a valid government-issued photo ID verifying the individual is 65 years of age or older.

  • Mandatory USPS Transit Routing: To remain in strict compliance with United States Postal Service (USPS) Domestic Mail Manual (DMM) regulations governing restricted matter, any order being shipped to an FFL or bona-fide cutlery dealer containing an automatic or gravity knife must be shipped exclusively via the USPS. Standard commercial air or ground carriers may not be utilized.

  • Postmaster General Certification Letter Requirement: Every outbound interstate shipment containing an automatic or gravity knife (couriered by USPS) must include a physical, printed copy of the official Postmaster General Certification Letter enclosed directly inside the shipping packaging.
