 BBBOnLine Reliability Seal
A+ RATED

Empire Arms is a very well-known federally-licensed Class-01 dealer of handpicked historical and collectable European military rifles and handguns.   We have by EXTREMELY hard work built ourselves one of the best reputations of any milsurp firearm dealer in America and we intend to keep it that way!

We prefer to do business EXCLUSIVELY OVER THE INTERNET. We DO NOT publish a written catalogue or list. Nearly all of our inventory is detailed on our web-pages, which are kept totally up-to-date in "real time", so if it is listed there, then we still do have it in stock at this very moment.  We no longer take ANY tables at gun-shows with inventory to sell (only with the intention of buying from other attendees and vendors) and we no longer can (by local ordinance) have anyone "drop by" our physical office to pick up or purchase anything from us.

We prefer our web-pages be "quick-loading" with none of the really fancy graphics or photos that slows down access.  While some of the more obscure items are illustrated, most photos are made available as "links" rather than being crammed down your throat and slowing down your computer.

OUR SIXTEENTH (16th) ANNIVERSARY!

EMPIRE ARMS has been "on the web" since its infancy in early 1993, and in fact were one of the FIRST gun dealers to utilize the internet as a primary platform.    We are not some "Johnnie come lately" company. . .  we ACTUALLY KNOW how the internet works and have customer satisfaction as our #1 priority!   You will be VERY HAPPY that you found us and you WILL tell others!  EMPIRE ARMS is a member in good standing (with an A+ rating) of the Better Business Bureau.

Our OFFICE IS STAFFED from 10AM to 7PM Eastern Time Tuesdays thru Fridays, though we may be closed on Friday afternoons due to one of us traveling to a show.  We are closed most Saturdays, Sundays and EVERY MONDAY without fail.  Feel free to call us after office hours if you have something you would like to discuss or a question and you might get lucky but you will most likely get a machine. 

We greatly prefer e-mail correspondence, however if you have a whole bunch of questions please call us rather than email, since it takes much less time to talk than it does type (at least for me, anyway).

ALL ORDERS must be physically sent to us (whether by e-mail, FAX or letter) with as much detailed information as possible (don't forget to include your name & address)... we *DO NOT* accept phone-orders!

We are very experienced specialists in Mauser rifles (especially the excellent Swedish, German, and more unusual variants), British, Canadian, Australian, Indian and U.S.-made Enfields, and Finnish, French, Russian and Soviet-bloc small arms which are (for the moment, at least) both very inexpensive and usually readily available in very nice condition. We also deal in military handguns on a somewhat lesser scale.

We don't usually get many U.S.-issue military firearms (Springfields, Garands, M1 Carbines, Colt 1911's, etc.) as the market for these items is artificially high and the sellers usually think their stuff is worth a lot more than we do.  When we do offer them for sale they usually do not last very long. 

We do NOT deal in gun-parts or junk firearms. We buy only complete, non-sporterized shootable military firearms with excellent or better bores (and usually with all-matching serial numbers if possible) in the finest obtainable condition. Most of our firearms are cleaned (but not refinished), inspected in detail (including checking for correct headspace) before they are offered for sale. Our customer satisfaction rate is always very close to 100% (unfortunately, there are a few people in this world that are not happy no matter what).

Our return policy allows the buyer a three (3) day inspection period, during which you may return anything purchased from us for any or no reason whatsoever for a full refund less shipping both ways and a 3.5% restocking-fee if paid for with a credit card.  After three (3) days in your hands (or your dealer-agents hands)... you own it.

We do not buy or sell modern commercial firearms (or military weapons made since 1960 or so). 

All Federal, state and local laws and/or requirements will (of course) be STRICTLY observed.

We will not ship a firearm to anyone who does not have a Federal Firearm license... period!

See our TERMS OF SALE page for much more specific details on our operation (as well as how to order from us).

There is no such thing as a stupid question! Please feel free to e-mail or call us for advice (however if you have a bunch of questions, stupid or not, please call us for advice rather than e-mailing... we don't type so good).

We DO NOT accept PHONE ORDERS!
*ALL* orders must be either e-mailed, FAXed or snail-mailed to us

*** AN ESSENTIAL and EXCLUSIVE  FEATURE!  ***

We have since 1995 had a E-MAIL LIST which will notify you in advance of specific changes we have made to ANY of the pages on our site with links, so you can decide whether to check out the updated site or not.  We also offer frequent SPECIALS and NEW STUFF to our mailing-list customers only (with which we usually sell 80-90% or more in the 24 hours they are active).  Our future plans with this mailing-list service include many other features which we hope will be of interest to all collectors of Military Firearms (no SPAM, we promise).  To get on our confidential mailing-list just enter your email-address in the form below and click the button (we cannot add anyone to the list ourselves... it has to come from you).

FREEDOM:

Dusty old helmet, rusty old gun,
They sit in the corner and wait -
Two souvenirs of the Second World War
That have withstood the time, and the hate.

Mute witness to a time of much trouble.
Where kill or be killed was the law -
Were these implements used with high honor?
What was the glory they saw?

Many times I've wanted to ask them -
And now that we're here all alone,
Relics all three of a long ago war -
Where has freedom gone?

Freedom flies in your heart like an eagle.
Let it soar with the winds high above
Among the spirits of soldiers now sleeping,
Guard it with care and with love.

I salute my old friends in the corner,
I agree with all they have said -
And if the moment of truth comes tomorrow,
I'll be free, or By God, I'll be dead!

Audie Murphy (1925-1971)
recipient of the Congressional Medal of Honor
cowboy, movie star, poet, patriot, my friend. . .
God Bless you Audie, and GOD BLESS AMERICA!
