Is Sig Sauer Armory Legit ? Seem to have several pistols in stock. However, I have not been able to successfully send them an email & I don't see a telephone number.

Thank you,

rick

Crypto or Zelle only for payments? No CC? Spelling mistakes on the site? Weird grammar in descriptions? No physical address or phone number?


100% Scam site

Many warning flags. Scam-detector.com

A recent review:

"Yes sig sauer [armory] is a scam… i was going to order a slide for p226 22lr conversion… number 1 flag it was 169.00 so i was hit it filled out info and price was no tax no shipping just 169 and they wanted me to pay zelle or cryptocurrency.. i didnt know what that was so i investigated and you send money to a email account… I thought this isnt right so i reached out to them and they keep wanting me to pay them pushing the issue to pay them so i called them out being scammers… they then quit reaching out"

... and doesn't pass my test either.

If it smells like one ...

Well at least no one posted their html address.

Found Sig Armory online and was considering buying from them. Our forum is correct, too many red flags. Thanks to Sig Forum I will pass.

I was recently directed to that site by my FFL (based only on an internet search for an item I wanted) and also felt "less than confident" in their business.

Will NOT use Zelle based on recent reposts of BOA account holders who had problems.

Trying to find SOMEONE who has had a positive/successful transaction with them.

"Why, yes. We DO have the P220 Carry SAS in stock. Several, in fact, all LE turn-ins in like-new condition, for $729 each."

Did your FFL personally say, "hey, you may want to try [insert website here] to find the product you are looking for."

Or was there a search engine on your FFL's website that may have included a link to the site?

Or did your FFL have a link to the site on their site?

It would help if you could be really clear as to how you were referred to that site.

Flags: No address, no phone number, no privacy statement or terms of service on their site (required by credit card processors), Zelle for payments, they take payments to ship a gun to a state where it is restricted.

AVOID. JUST AVOID.

Zelle is the big flag. There is no reason why they can not get a regular credit card gateway account through a merchant services provider. Zelle terms include the following - https://www.zellepay.com/legal/user-service-agreement

quote:

You agree that you will not use the Service to request, send or receive money related to any of the following:
...
Firearms, ammunition or other weapons;

So NOT LEGIT. If your FFL personally vouches for this company, I'd not trust your FFL anymore.

My FFL just did a quick search for what I wanted (a Sig .22 Conversion Kit for a P229) and this was the site which popped up first. He sent me the url to investigate. No pressure or vouching, just a suggestion where to begin my search.

As soon as I can get back to him I'll let him know what I found and how he can assess other sites better.

Thanks for the update. Even if you did find anyone with a positive or successful transaction with them, I would assume they are part of the scam.

Yes

It's important that members and readers become conditioned to being skeptical of these business they find via web searches, but direct links to any site you're suspicious of should be left out of the conversation.
