Is the website up to date? Yes the firearms inventory listed on this website is updated before we open every morning Mon.-Sat. We even update during the day as items sell and arrive. We remove the firearm at the time it sells. No other dealer in the state does this. All firearms inventory that shows IN STOCK is HERE in our retail location READY TO PURCHASE TODAY.
Tips before your trip - PLEASE READ
- If you show up right at the time I am supposed to open and I am not open yet be patient and wait 5 minutes . It is not uncommon for me to open 5 or 10 minutes late. Things come up I cannot control (such as a trace from the ATF, taking care of shipments that just got dropped off, or other important matter). I do not open until I am ready to serve customers. I have cameras and sensors so I know you are there. DO NOT USE THE DOOR BELL
- If you are coming to purchase or transfer a firearm please be here 30 minutes before closing , For Example be here by 4:30pm weekdays if I close at 5:00pm (hours depending on seasonal or SPECIAL hours. See hours below ) Remember a sale or transfer can take 15-45min depending on many factors including the time it takes to process the background check which could take up to 45min (if your background check goes to further review I have seen waits as long as 45min) depending on how busy they are. This does not include you choosing a firearm and doing the paperwork.
Please come atleast 30min before closing.
- I WILL STOP SERVING CUSTOMERS ONCE IT IS CLOSING TIME. It can take up to 15 to 45 minutes to process a single firearms transaction. If it is 30 minutes before closing and I am helping another customer(s) I probably won't get to you, Sorry. If someone is buying multilple guns and accessories that could take a lot more time 45 minutes to an hour so I could close 30 minutes early even if the parking lot is full. COME EARLY! THANK YOU!
- FFL TRANSFER? You can pick up your item the NEXT DAY after the tracking shows delivered NOT the same day not matter what time it is delivered. My policy is clearly stated on the FFL Transfer Page. See the FFL Transfer Page for more info.
- SELLING AN ESTATE COLLECTION? If you have an estate collection that you want to sell and my hours do not work for you please send me an email via the contact us page or make an appointment page . Sorry this does not apply to gun sales, transfers, or free appraisals. You must come in during normal business hours for those.
Also see us at MAINEGUNBUYER.COM
- Always check the website just before you leave as the website changes throughout the day as firearms are received and sold. (accessories listed on the website are not part of the updated inventory)
- Check this page or Google for business hours . DON'T JUST GET IN YOU CAR AND DRIVE HERE WITHOUT CHECKING HOURS FIRST. GOOGLE IS USUALLY THE BEST https://g.page/mainegundealer (see below for more info) or Just type in Allsport Performance Business Hours on Google search and it will show you my updated business hours. The hours on Google are always up to date. If I think I will be opening later or earlier then expected the hours will be updated on Google. I cannot update this website page remotely.
- Make sure your valid Maine drivers license or Maine state ID has your current physical address (not P.O.box) on it. If not make sure you have a valid Maine vehicle reg, valid Maine conceal carry permit, or valid Maine hunting/fishing that has your physical address on it. (Valid means not expired) If you do not have the the right documentation with you we will refuse to sell to you. No exceptions.
- Bring cash to save 3% on your firearm purchase. Don't forget the added 5.5% sales tax.
- If you are coming to get a quote on a firearm or special order a firearm make sure you have cash with you so you can pay up front and get the cash discounted price. Assuming you want to order the firearm.

Are you interested in taking my gun in trade or buying my estate collection?
We always are interested in purchasing or taking in trade Civil War, WWI, WWII, Vintage, Collectable, or Antiques firearms. We do take in modern firearms and current production firearms in as well but we do not take every gun that walks in the door. If you have an estate collection we will buy them all . You can just bring them into the shop if you have a small collection (20 guns or less ) without an appointment. Generally Tue-Thurs is slower and mornings are usually best. For large collections (more than 20 ) you may want to come in or email us about an appointment. The owner Fred will come to you if needed and help with your estate as much as possible.
