Who we are
Hilltop Armory is a licensed firearms and ammunition dealer based in Pineville, MO. We hold a Type 01 Federal Firearms Licence issued by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives — the licence that permits a business to deal in firearms and ammunition.
That licence is the difference between us and a marketplace listing. A Federal Firearms Licensee works from premises the ATF has approved and can inspect, keeps a permanent acquisition and disposition record of every firearm through the business, and answers to federal law for every transfer. When a licence is revoked, the business stops. That accountability is why the licensing system exists, and it is why our licence number is at the top of this page rather than buried in a footer.
Ownership and accountability
The business is owned by Matt Sims, the responsible person named on the federal licence. One identifiable individual is accountable for how this business buys, stores, records and ships regulated goods.
Questions that touch compliance — an age or eligibility check, a declined order, a state restriction — are answered by the licensee rather than an outsourced desk. Reach us at support@hilltoparmoryllc.com.
How we operate
We verify eligibility before we ship
Federal law sets a minimum age of 18 for rifle and shotgun ammunition and 21 for handgun ammunition, and bars several categories of person from possessing ammunition at all. We apply those rules at the point of sale, not after it. Age and eligibility rules →
We refuse orders we cannot lawfully fill
Several states and cities restrict or prohibit direct ammunition delivery. We would rather cancel and refund than put a customer on the wrong side of their own state law. State restrictions →
We publish where our product data comes from
Ballistic figures and cartridge specifications come from the manufacturer’s published data and from the SAAMI standards, not copied between retail sites. Where a figure cannot be verified we leave it out. Product data standards →
