    I placed the order for 3 boxes of rice ammo, $155 worth and immediately received confirmation, paid for 3 day shipping and received an email 5 days later stating that my order was being held up with the shipper due to needing to pay $100 more for shipping insurance which they stated was 100% refundable but then received an email stating it was only 95% refundable. Now me being someone that uses ups and fedex knows that these items can only go ground and no insurance is needed. So at that point I knew I’d been scammed and requested a refund and have yet to hear anything. It’s sad these days people used any means to scam individuals.

    On April 27th I placed an order with Gateway Ammo for a case of .410 shotgun shells. The amount was $219.99 and was an expected amount. I received no information about my order or a tracking number. I filed a complaint with ******. I then received a tracking number. I have attempted to track the order every day and each time the response is "No Results". I have called four different phone number and gotten no response. I have left voicemails. I have sent emails. I then did another google search and found the BBB reviews and complaints. I am so upset that I didn't realize this was a scam. I did some research, but not enough, obviously. I did the research because upon the first attempt in ordering, the ****** link showed the payment as a donation. I did think this was strange, but realized this is often done to avoid the ****** fees. I realize this is my own fault, but do not understand how they are still doing this to people after seeing the complaints here.

    I purchased three (3) boxes of 45-70 ammo, 500 grain at $ 105.00 per box. I was told the ammo would be here in 3 days and they gave me a tracking number. Its been 21 days and no ammo and I have reached out to Gateway Ammo and there are no good phone numbers. I should have researched this company better as this is my 1st time ever being scammed in my life. Why cannot the government shut them down?

    Purchased 4 boxes of 9mm Honey Badger ammo, $140.
    Never received the items after a month and several emails to them.
    Obviously a scam operation.
    I was in dire need for this ammo, and didn't listen to my 6th sense.
    It was the first time I was scammed on the internet.
