RETURN & REFUND POLICY
The Den HL, LLC dba Den of Merritt
Last Updated: March 6, 2026
Our goal is to ensure that every item you order from Den of Merritt arrives promptly and functions as expected. Please review the following return guidelines before placing an order.
Firearm & Lower Receiver Returns
All firearms must be shipped to a Federal Firearms License (FFL) dealer for transfer.
When you arrive at the FFL dealer to complete your transfer, inspect the firearm carefully before accepting it. Once the transfer is completed, the firearm is considered used and cannot be returned.
If you notice damage or an incorrect item before completing the transfer, notify the FFL dealer and contact us immediately so we can assist.
If a firearm is not picked up from the receiving FFL within 14 days of arrival, the order may be canceled and returned to Den of Merritt. In such cases, refunds will be issued minus original shipping costs, return shipping fees, and a 15% restocking fee.
Orders may also be canceled if:
- A background check is denied
- The purchaser is not legally eligible to own the firearm
- The transfer cannot legally be completed
New Firearms
All new firearm sales are final once the transfer has been completed.
New firearms are covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. If a firearm experiences a defect after transfer, customers should contact the manufacturer directly. We are happy to assist with manufacturer contact information when needed.
Used Firearms
Used firearms may be returned only if a verified mechanical defect is discovered within 3 days of transfer.
If a defect is confirmed, the firearm may be returned for a refund or evaluation. Return shipping arrangements will be provided when applicable.
After 3 days, all used firearm sales are final.
