Warranty:

We offer a limited warranty on materials and workmanship in parts that are NOT considered normal wear type items. The warranty timeline is 60-days after delivery. 

Normal wear items include things that are normally replaced periodically or parts that may wear out during normal use such as firing pins, extractors, and barrels. This warranty DOES NOT include ANY part that has been modified, abused, disassembled, or altered in any fashion. This includes modifying for install, painting, abuse, or taking items apart that are not normally user serviceable beyond normal field stripping, such as scopes, sights, and barreled uppers. Using Loktite or other thread locking compounds or non-standard gunsmithing tools such as a pipe wrench on parts, this automatically voids the warranty on those parts.

Within 30 days of the customer receiving the product, Davidson Defense may approve a prepaid return label, which is valid for seven business days, to be issued to the customer to send the product back for repair. Before a repair and RMA can be authorized, the customer will be asked to fill out a troubleshooting questionnaire. This must be done before the repair can be authorized.

*For repairs and/or replacements of products with functionality issues, the customer must receive an authorized RMA from Davidson Defense for the product before shipping it back or the return/package will not be approved for repair and the package will be rejected. 

*If the product has been modified or disassembled in any way without the express written approval of Davidson Defense, the repair will not be approved

*This includes taking the firearm/parts to a gunsmith. 

*If the product is received and we determine that it has been disassembled or modified without expressed permission from Davidson Defense, the repair will not be approved and the customer will be responsible for paying the return shipping prior to getting their product returned to them.

* Returns, refunds, and/or warranty exchanges may take up to two weeks, not including transit times, for processing after we receive the product(s). 

All items being returned for warranty exchange must follow the above policy in regard to obtaining an RMA number and  information requirements. Davidson Defense will issue a postage paid return label only for warranty returns within the first 30 days after delivery. On items returned for warranty after 30 days, shipping costs must be paid by the returning party and an invoice for return shipping will be sent to the customer and must be paid prior to return shipping, if the funds are not received, Davidson Defense is not required or obligated to honor the warranty exchange, and subsequently we will not ship a replacement part to you.

Shipping Methods:

If a requested courier service (e.g. USPS - Ground Advantage, USPS - Priority, USPS - Express 2 Day) is selected at checkout and is unavailable in your region or area. A courier service that can complete the shipment will be used to fulfill your order. 

Package Protection: 

Because carriers are no longer offering delivery guarantees without shipping package protection, it is highly recommended that you purchase package protection from us with your order. If you choose to forego our package protection the risk of loss passes to you.

 Risk of Loss: 

All items purchased from our company are made pursuant to a shipment contract. This means that the risk of loss and title for such items passes to you upon our delivery to the carrier. As such, if an order is lost in shipping, damaged, or is addressed wrong, it becomes a liability to you if shipping package protection was not purchased from us.

Claims Policy

If you do not choose Package Protection at checkout you accept responsibility for lost, stolen, damaged or misdelivered packages. We will provide any information necessary for the claim, but we will not file the claim for you. Compensation can only be requested from the carrier.

For claims on orders with Package Protection, claims must be reported within 5 days of the scheduled delivery date. A Help Request sent to our help center during non-business hours is acceptable. Please allow us time to confirm with the carrier to try and find the package. When confirmed as lost, we will replace the items, if no replacement is available we will contact you about compensation. The claims process typically takes up to two weeks to complete.

The following are covered by package protection.

• Lost in Transit
• Damaged/Missing Items
• Misdelivered

Please note that filing a chargeback, missing mail search, or submitting a carrier claim on your own will void Package Protection. These actions make you ineligible for compensation or replacement. The claims process must be handled directly by us.

We do not cover stolen packages. Package Protection covers the package from our door to your door. Once the package is marked as delivered to the provided address it is no longer covered by Package Protection.

* If a shipment is refused without cancelling it first, a 25% restocking fee and our shipping costs will not be refunded back to the customer.

Cancellations:

If you need to cancel an order, please contact customer service within three (3) business days.

Additionally a 3% merchant fee will be applied to all refunds.  You may request a store credit instead of a refund for the cancelled items. Store credits will not have restocking or merchant fees.

Refunds: 

 Refunds may be subject to additional fees. Refunds are generally issued within three business days after we receive the product or cancel an order. Some may take longer depending on the time of year. 

• A 3% merchant fee will be applied to all refunds unless a special circumstance is applied.

CREDOVA:

If a customer places an order with Credova and wants to return an item from that order then we can only issue store credit. We don’t issue refunds for Credova because the customer signed a contract and is making payments to Credova directly. 

Order Validation

Davidson Defense may cancel orders that fail to meet validation requirements, and reserves the right to verify order validity in situations including, but not limited to, mismatched shipping and billing addresses and the use of VPNs, which can be potential fraud indicators.

• We may use a third party to validate some orders

Chargebacks

We are more than willing to work with you to resolve the issue that you would be dealing with so that a chargeback doesn’t need to be filed. While we want to avoid credit card chargebacks/disputes, we know that they will still occur for a multitude of reasons.

If a customer files a chargeback/dispute, we have and will exercise the right to collect for all goods and services, charges and fees, and costs associated with the collection effort. We generally handle collections in house, but at times will hire a third party to do these collections. If we have to send a customer to collections, the customer is responsible for all costs that are charged to us. The minimum amount exacted in charges, fees and costs will be no less than $100.00.

If an order that has a serialized part on it is charged back to us and the customer is still in possession of the serialized part, this is considered theft and is officially a stolen item and will be reported to the authorities and an official ATF report will be filed.

SERIALIZED PRODUCTS/FIREARMS

If a serialized product is purchased and we have to cancel the order, store credit for that portion of the order will be issued.
