  • GRITR is not responsible for any transfer fees required by your FFL.
  • Some FFLs require payment of transfer fees before shipping the item back to GRITR.
  • Refunds or exchanges will only be processed after the item has been received back at GRITR's location.

  • If you discover a defect after taking possession, you must contact the manufacturer directly for repair or replacement.
