Guns.com and Smith & Wesson Strengthen "Buy Now" Partnership

Industry-leading technology creates a faster path from product discovery to purchase, while driving sales to local gun shops nationwide.

Burnsville, MN — Guns.com and Smith & Wesson are strengthening their partnership to deliver a faster, more convenient online shopping experience for gun owners nationwide. Through Guns.com's industry-leading "Buy Now" technology, Smith & Wesson customers can seamlessly move from the company's extensive firearm catalog on its website to accurate, in-stock product listings on Guns.com. The innovative technology ultimately drives sales directly to brick-and-mortar gun shops nationwide — the backbone of the firearm industry.

"As consumer expectations continue to evolve, our partners recognize the importance of delivering a modern, seamless shopping experience," said Mark Lewke, Corporate Partnerships Manager at Guns.com. "Our 'Buy Now' technology delivers exactly that, and our partners, like Smith & Wesson, are helping lead the industry forward. Plus, they value the added benefit of knowing Guns.com will service and protect their brand throughout the customer journey."

Guns.com was first to bring the "Buy Now" technology to manufacturers large and small. The proprietary technology connects customers from a manufacturer's website to the correct, in-stock product listing available through Guns.com's nationwide Dealer Network. By integrating with storefront dealers to show live, on-shelf firearm inventory, Guns.com does the work of searching thousands of retailers to ensure the best experience for both manufacturers and customers.

Suppressor Manufacturers Add "Buy Now"

The "Buy Now" technology also powers suppressor sales for participating manufacturers, like Gemtech, EOTECH, and FN America. Through Guns.com's Dealer Network, customers can browse the largest selection of in-stock suppressors available online. Once purchased, suppressors ship free to the customer's selected local retailer, where they can complete the transfer process in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
