Pistol Orders

When purchasing a pistol a $1,500.00 deposit is required to start the build. Gift/promotional certificates cannot be used for the deposit. This is a non-refundable deposit. Once the pistol is completed the balance on the pistol is due within 15 days of notification. There are absolutely no refunds given on pistols. At the time of ordering, please discuss any specific deadline regarding your project, and we will determine if the deadline is realistic prior to proceeding. Any production time estimates we provide are our best guess and are subject to change based on availability of parts, current workload or unforeseen problems.

For custom orders, production time can vary depending on the specifications and accessories. We will do our best to give you a more precise estimate at the time of your order based on the specifications. If we cannot procure all accessory items by the time your project is ready to ship, we will ship the otherwise completed project and back order those accessories items unless instructed to do otherwise.

Abandoned Orders

When purchasing a pistol a $1,500.00 deposit is required to start the build (Gift or promotional certificates cannot be used in the deposit). This is a non-refundable deposit.
Once a pistol has been completed and the customer notified, the customer will have up to 15 days in which to pay any remaining balance. After 15 days the customer will forfeit any deposits previously paid and the pistol will be sold.

Order Changes

Changes to orders will be considered only for the first 14 days after a deposit has been received. After 14 days any changes will result in a $100 change fee. In addition, if any major components are requested to be changed and  have already been manufactured, a 15% restock fee will also be assessed.

Status Checks

Due to current demand, our call volume is extremely high, and market conditions are not predictable. For these reasons, we regularly update our Facebook site with current builds. You will be notified by email when the order has shipped.



Don't hesitate to email sales@fordshooters.com if you must make additions or change to your order.
