How We Work
Find
- Locate
- We search for factories worldwide to source the ammunition you need.
- Negotiate
- We collaborate with the factory to secure the best pricing and production schedule.
- We review the contract terms thoroughly to ensure a deal that aligns with your budget and timeline.
- If desired, we can assist you with executing international wire transfers.
- International Import Certification
- We coordinate with the ATF to provide the factory and their government the necessary documentation to legally export your ammunition.
We can find a price-competitive vendor for your needs through our network of over 80 overseas factories with ATF-cleared import documents. Our diversion of suppliers helps ensure you get the best product for the price.
Ship
- Foreign Country Transport
- We work with the production factory to arrange transportation to the international shipper (air, sea, or trucking).
- Transnational Shipping
- We manage all logistics, including cost estimates and port arrival times.
Our service includes transport from the factory to the container ship, the transoceanic voyage, and delivery to your location. All containers are insured throughout their trip to protect you and your investment.
Clear
- ATF Import Documentation
- We secure all required ATF documentation before any overseas payments are made.
- US Customs
- We collaborate with our Freight Forwarder to meet all US Customs requirements to ensure your shipment is cleared from the port of arrival.
- Federal Excise Taxes
- We provide an exact quote for your tax liability and handle payments, including quarterly and yearly reporting obligations.
ATF import permits and compliance are most company’s nightmares. We do ATF permits and customs clearances and even help with your quarter excise tax payment. You will know all these expenses from the moment we start your import.
Drop
- Domestic Shipping
- Once your shipment has cleared US Customs, we can deliver it to your loading dock or manage split shipments if you’re sharing with other distributors.
Winter will drop ship your purchase anywhere, whether you plan to sell your imports yourself or have worked a deal to sell to another FFL holder. We can remove dozens of steps, increasing your profits and decreasing your hassles.
We only get paid if we succeed.
Let our decades of experience work for you. Drop us a note and tell us what you have in mind. We can set up a time to talk. There is no risk or cost to find out if we are right for you.
