Ordering a pellet gun from pyramidair.com?

Question

Can i (safely) order a pellet gun from Pyramidair.com and have it sent to me by a UPS or FEDeX or whatever, and pay Cash on delivery?

Or do i have to own a credit card?

Can i send a money order?

Answer 1

All my orders have arrived safely.  You would probably have to call a pyramydair representative to find out if they do a COD order or if they will accept a money order.  I have always used a credit card to place my orders, so I'm not sure if they would accept other payments or not.  

Pyramyd air does ship merchandise as "signature required" upon delivery.  So, if you do place an order, you will need to have arrangements for someone to be home to sign for it.

Answer 2

guess you'll have to actually contact them, i'm sure they'll allow it, but it seems as though, if you are in fact allowed to own an air rifle where you are at they can send the particular model to a dealer near you. you need to go to their site and spend some time reading up on their policies.

Cite from New Jersey law: "A 'firearm' means any handgun, rifle, shotgun, air gun, gas gun, machine gun, or 'any gun.'"

Residents of Michigan may purchase anything on our site except for pellet guns measuring 30 inches or less (overall length). These guns are regulated by Michigan as firearms and require a concealed gun permit or a Michigan state license to purchase a pistol. Blank guns, guns with unrifled barrels and airsoft guns are NOT included in this restriction regardless of length. They may be purchased without any permit or license.

Michigan residents may purchase airguns that require state permits or licenses by following these steps:

1. Inform Pyramyd Air of the item you want to purchase.

2. The item will be shipped to the designated dealer/retailer in your area. You must find a participating dealer/retailer and let us know where to ship your gun.

3. Go to your local police department and obtain a permit to purchase the airgun. Each airgun purchase must have a separate permit.

4. After the permit is issued to you by the police, take it to the gun store where your gun was shipped.

5. After the permit is presented to the store and their fee is paid, they will give you the airgun.

6. Take the airgun back to the police department for a safety check and ballistics test.

7. After the tests are conducted and they determine that the airgun is safe, you can take the airgun home.

Answer 3

I have bought from them with credit card only.  Most practical for me.

They are a reputable business, the biggest air gun dealer in US.

They have their issues sometimes but they are quick to make it right.

I don't know if they have pay on delivery, but if they do it should be fine.  I know they accept money order.

If you are not paying credit card calling them with your doubts would be good.

They sponsor a blog by Tom Gaylor that is very educative
