All guns transferred in to A.P.P.S. have a 48-72 hour processing time from when it arrives. Please wait for a phone call from our staff to let you know it is ready for pickup. Please do not just show up when your tracking number says it has been delivered.
***If you have had a firearm shipped to A.P.P.S. and you were denied, you have 30 days to remedy the problem. After 30 days, the firearm becomes the property of A.P.P.S.***
