FAQ
1 Store Info
1.1 What shipping services do you use?

Our preferred shipment methods are USPS Priority Mail and UPS Ground or 2-Day Air. 

  • Handguns ship via USPS Priority Mail or UPS 2-Day Air. 
  • Long guns are usually shipped UPS ground. 
  • Our policy is to send lower receivers and FCU's a priority service. 
  • For larger orders with multiple items, we will usually opt for UPS Ground.

Our base per-order shipping charge is $9.95.  This will cover most stock parts, optics, magazines and accessories.

1.3 What is your returns policy for purchases?

All online firearms sales are final. 

At our store in Pewaukee, firearm purchases that are not completed for any reason, e.g. declined background check, are subject to a 15% restocking fee. Background check fees are non-refundable.

Returns:  For orders that do not contain firearms, please notify us within 2 business days of items received damaged or defective, and return within 5 business days with receipt or order confirmation for a full refund. Returns for reasons other than defect or damage must occur within 10 business days and be accompanied by a receipt or order confirmation. Such items must be in unused and in re-sellable condition and are subject to a 15% restocking fee.

1.4 Anything I should know about order processing?

Due to the in industry we are in and strong fraud filters we need to have in place with our credit card processor on our website, all orders must have matching billing and shipping addresses.   We will not process any orders that are flagged with a mismatch.

No firearms will be sent to your address!  If you are purchasing a firearm, we will contact you to get the information of your local FFL, including shipping address, once your order has been processed.   

1.5 Do you have hunting rifles and shotguns?

Our physical store is relatively small space, so we consider ourselves a specialty custom gun shop that focuses on the AR platform, custom rifles and pistols.  

For the hunters out there, we are always willing to special order items if they are available to us.   Check out our Special Orders category to see what's currently available.  If you're not seeing it, ask us!

1.6 What brands do you carry?

We are official dealers of Aero Precision, Ballistic Advantage, VG6 Precision, Strike Industries, Tyrant Designs, and Hogue, Alien Gear Holsters and we buy direct from them.  We are approved stocking dealers for Glock and Colt.

We carry a lot of other firearms and products from other manufacturers.  Please see our Brands page for a complete list.  

1.7 Do you sell ammo?

Yes, we usually have the most popular modern handgun, rifle and shotgun calibers on hand, but only at our Pewaukee location in store.  We do not sell ammo online.   

We are generally willing to special order ammo we don't have in stock, for local customers willing to pick it up, if it is available to us.  The minimum order is $100+shipping.  Special order ammo usually arrives in a week or less.

1.8 Can you special order something for me?

See our Special Orders page for guns that are currently available from our suppliers. 

Not seeing what you're looking for?  Contact us!  We will certainly try to track it down for you.  We can't promise to be able to acquire specific items due to availability from our suppliers, but we are always willing to look. We work with some of the biggest and best distributors in the country.

If you're not in a huge hurry, most of our suppliers will notify us when specific items become available.  If not now, there's always the possibility it could be next week or next month.  We will always call prior to ordering on your behalf, especially if it's been a while since you made your request.

We are official dealers of and buy direct from Aero Precision, Ballistic Advantage, VG6 Precision, Tyrant Designs, Strike Industries, Alien Gear, Ammo Inc, Hogue and others. Please ask, especially if the item you seek is one of those brands.

If we are able to find it through one of our main suppliers, items usually arrive in a week or less.  We require payment in full in advance.  See our Special Orders page for more details.

1.9 Do you buy guns or do trade-ins?

We do not buy guns outright, but we will occasionally do trade-ins, at our discretion.  At this time, we are only interested in gently used, newer model pistols that are in like new, excellent or very good condition with original cases and magazines. 

If you're not in a huge hurry, we are willing to sell your guns on consignment.  We will sell on your behalf in our store, on our website, at GunBroker.com and Guns.com.  Please see Consignment for more information.

1.17 Do you do background checks on behalf of private sellers?

We do.  If you are a private seller and want to make sure that the buyer is eligible to purchase the gun, we will run a background check for you on your behalf.  The fee is $40 for all types of firearms.

Please note that we require the background check to be accompanied by an actual bill of sale for a specific firearm(s) including associated serial number(s).  Feel free to download a General Firearm Bill of Sale for private sales and transfers from private parties if you do not have one already.   

A government-issued photo ID that is not expired will be required for the background check.  All information on this ID must be current including address.   Most commonly people use a driver's license or state ID, but passports and military/veteran ID cards are also possible.

1.18 Do you offer a cash discount?

We offer a 3% cash discount at our Pewaukee store, yes.

1.19 Do you offer a military / veteran / police discount?

Yes, in store, we offer 3% discount upon request with a valid applicable ID.

2 Background Checks
2.1 How are background checks done in Wisconsin?

Background checks for long guns (rifles, shotguns, lower receivers) are done through NICS (FBI). Background checks for handguns (pistols, revolvers, ar/ak pistols, fire control units) are done through the state of WI.   

If you purchase more than one long gun at the same time, the background check is done through NICS.  If you purchase a long gun and a handgun at the same time, the background check will be done through the state.

Different states have different procedures, so if you do not live in Wisconsin, this may not apply.  Please check on your state laws before purchasing any firearm online.  See also Gun Purchasing Process - In Store

2.2 What do you need to pass a background check?
In general, to pass the check you must:
 
  • Provide your address, place of birth, height, weight, sex, birth date, ethnicity, and race
  • Verify you are:
    • The actual buyer of the firearm
    • A citizen of the United States
  • Verify you are NOT:
    • Under indictment for a felony or any crime for which the judge can imprison you for more than a year
    • A convicted felon
    • A fugitive from justice
    • An unlawful drug user
    • Mentally defective
    • A recipient of a dishonorable discharge from the Military
    • The subject of a domestic restraining order
    • A convicted domestic abuser
    • An illegal alien

Please see Purchasing Guns Online for more information

2.3 How long does the background check take?

It is variable.  Sometimes it's 5 minutes, sometimes 5 days.  Around 90% of the people that come into our shop receive a response the same day or next day.   For handguns, the state of Wisconsin MUST reply within 5 business days one way or the other. There is no mandatory waiting period in Wisconsin.

Note that anyone between the ages of 18-21 who wishes to purchase a long gun should be prepared for results to be delayed 3-14 business days.  The additional time period required to receive a response from NICS for persons within this age group is dictated by new governmental policies, and we have no say in the time it takes, nor can we speed it along.

2.4 What happens if my background check is declined?

Firearm purchases that are not completed due to a declined background check are subject to a 15% restocking fee on the cost of the firearm.  Background check fees are non-refundable.  You will not be able to take possession of the firearm, but will be provided with information on how to appeal the decision.  Please see Gun Purchasing Process - In Store for an overview of the gun purchasing process.

Note: this applies to firearm purchases from the inventory of Wraith Precision in-store.  For transfers, please see the policy of the seller.

2.5 What types of ID can be used to purchase firearm?

Identification must be a government-issued photo ID that is current and unexpired. Examples include:

  • Driver's License (Issued within U.S. including U.S. Territories)
  • Non-Driver Photo ID (Issued within U.S. including U.S. Territories)
  • U.S. Passport
  • U.S. Passport Card
  • Foreign Passport
  • U.S. Military ID Card
  • U.S. Military Dependent's ID Card
  • Tribal Card
2.6 What if my ID is expired or doesn't have current information?

Maybe you just moved and your address changed, or maybe you just haven't gotten around to getting it renewed... In any case, it's best to get an updated ID card *BEFORE* you want to buy a firearm.    Many services can be completed online including renewals, duplicates (for change of address) and more.  We WILL accept the temporary license issued by the DMV which is usually printed on a piece of paper. 

Handy links for Wisconsin residents:

Renewal:  https://wisconsindot.gov/pages/dmv/license-drvs/rnew-and-chge/license-renewal.aspx

Replacement/Duplicate:  https://wisconsindot.gov/pages/dmv/license-drvs/lst-or-stoln/duplicate-id.aspx

 

If you have an old address on your ID, but are able to provide another piece of GOVERNMENT ISSUED supplemental documentation that shows your current address, we will be able to process your request in combination with your ID.  Examples could include vehicle registration, fishing or hunting license, tax documents, tax bill, CCW license, or voter ID card.

Documents issued by private companies or individuals (rental documents, leases, cable bills, phone bills, credit card bills, bank documents, etc.) may not be used as supplemental identification documents for the purchase or acquisition of a firearm.

 

2.7 Is there a mandatory waiting period in Wisconsin?

No, there is no longer a mandatory waiting period for purchasing guns in Wisconsin.

3 Transfers
3.1 What is the transfer process?
3.2 Will you give me your FFL number or a copy of your license?

No, sorry.  We prefer to handle this internally, and dealer-to-dealer.   If you are doing a transfer and the seller requires a copy of our FFL, please have them contact us at [email protected] to request it directly.

3.3 How long do I have to come pick up my transfer?

Any firearms, for transfers or gunsmithing, not picked up within 30 days of your being contacted will be charged $1/day per firearm for storage.  Firearms not picked up within 90 days will be considered abandoned and will become the property of Wraith Precision.  

You are responsible for making sure you can be reached through the contact methods you provided.  To not miss us contacting you (by phone or email), please add us to your contacts if you have firearms here.  

4 Gunsmithing
4.1 Do you work on older model, antique or curio firearms?

Generally speaking, yes, we do, particularly if it's something simple like a cleaning.  We are able to get replacement parts for *some* older model firearms, but not all. 

The best thing to do with older firearms than need more than a cleaning is to bring them in.  The gunsmith should be able to tell you fairly quickly whether he can help you or not.

4.2 What services do you provide?

Please see our Gunsmithing page for a list of services we provide.   If your situation involves something not included on the list, please give us a call or email Dave at [email protected] and we'll let you know if we can provide service or not.

4.3 Can you give me an estimate on the service I'd like done?

For straightforward services such as cleaning, installing sights, scope mounting, upgrading specific parts, we are usually able to provide a price or price range in advance.

For more complicated issues such as diagnosing malfunctions, we will need to take a look at it before providing a quote. 

4.4 Can you build me a custom AR?

Indeed we can - it's our specialty! 

We generally have manufacturing parts on hand to build AR15, AR10 and AR9 in a variety of popular chamberings.  Typically we have stock to build AR15s in 5.56, 223 Wylde, 6.5 Grendel, and 300 AAC,  AR10s in .308 or 6.5 Creedmoor and AR Pistols in 9mm.  Other chamberings are available, but barrels and BCG's will likely need to be ordered for the build.

4.5 What brands of components do you use in your custom builds?

We use Aero Precision upper and lower receivers and Ballistic Advantage barrels by default.  The rest of the parts used are dependent on your preference and budget.  We carry a range of components from basic mil-spec to high end from which to choose.

4.6 Can you mill out a slide on a pistol for a red dot?

Yes, this is something we do.  Generally, you will need to know what kind of optic/red dot you'll be putting on the pistol prior to milling.

4.7 How long do I have to come pick up my firearm left for gunsmithing services?
Any firearms, for transfers or gunsmithing, not picked up within 30 days of your being contacted will be charged $1/day per firearm for storage.  Firearms not picked up within 90 days will be considered abandoned and will become the property of Wraith Precision.  
 
You are responsible for making sure you can be reached through the contact methods you provided.  To not miss us contacting you (by phone or email), please add us to your contacts if you have firearms here. 
 
4.8 Do you do cerakote ?

Yes!  We offer cerakote services through our local partner, Grage Industries. 

4.9 Do you offer classes or training on gunsmithing topics ?

We are space-challenged for offering classes, however if you are doing a build and need help, Dave, the gunsmith, is often willing to work with people one-on-one after hours, his schedule permitting.  Please contact Dave directly to see when he might be able to meet with you at [email protected]

5 Dealers

We are a retail-only store.  We do not currently offer dealer discounts.

Note: We do NOT give our FFL to customers or non-FFL businesses.  

5.3 Do you deal with NFA items?

We do not currently deal with NFA items such as suppressors or short-barreled long guns.   We cannot accept transfers of such items at the present time.  We are able to work on NFA items through gunsmithing work orders, however.
