Training Requires Affordable Ammunition
NY Safe Inc. is a firearms training organization first. We believe that safe, proficient gun ownership depends on regular practice — and regular practice requires affordable, accessible ammunition. We don’t sell ammunition. We handle the legal transfer process so you can buy it online at the best prices and still train the way you should.
This isn’t a workaround. It’s exactly what New York law provides for. As a licensed NYS Seller of Ammunition, we are specifically authorized to receive online ammo shipments and transfer them to qualified purchasers after completing the mandatory NYS NICS background check. We offer this service because we are committed to keeping the shooting sports accessible across New York — not as a profit center.
Why You Need a Transfer
September 1, 2022 (CCIA): Direct-to-consumer ammunition shipments became illegal in New York. All online ammo purchases must ship to a licensed NYS Dealer of Firearms or a registered NYS Seller of Ammunition. Receiving a direct shipment is a violation — regardless of your pistol license or permit status.
September 13, 2023: A mandatory background check through the NYS NICS system became required for every ammunition purchase. This applies to every transfer, every time — there are no grandfathered exemptions and no exceptions for existing license holders.
Required by law — in-person pickup only. NY Penal Law § 400.03(7) mandates that the final transfer of ammunition between the seller and the transferee must occur in person. The seller is also required to physically examine a valid photo ID at the time of transfer. We cannot ship your ammunition to you after clearance, and we cannot release it to anyone other than the registered transferee. All transfers occur at our licensed Hauppauge location.
Simple, Flat-Rate Pricing
Pro Tip: Order Full Cases — Save Money, Train Better
We recommend ordering full cases of ammunition whenever possible. A full case from a single manufacturer typically carries one lot number — meaning the entire order processes as a single $25 flat-rate transfer, regardless of round count. Whether it’s 500 rounds or 1,000, one lot number is one transfer fee.
Mixed orders from multiple brands or partial boxes from different production runs often carry multiple lot numbers. Each additional lot beyond five adds $5 to your transfer cost — with no benefit to your training.
Beyond cost, ammunition from a single lot is more uniform in pressure, velocity, and point of impact. As a training organization, we know that consistency matters when you’re building muscle memory, tracking your performance, and developing real proficiency.
One case = One lot number = Five cases = one $25 transfer fee, regardless of round count
Consistent ballistics improve training quality and measurable skill development
Cases are almost always cheaper per round than individual boxes
Easier to store, inventory, and budget for regular training sessions
