Careers
Firearms retail careers at Range Ready Supply start here: we are a small team that would rather hire slowly and well than quickly and often. If you care about getting details right, can explain something technical to someone who is nervous, and want to work somewhere that treats compliance as a principle rather than paperwork, we would like to hear from you.
What Firearms Retail Careers Look Like Here
Small enough to matter
There is no layer of management between a good idea and the person who can approve it. If you spot a broken process, you are expected to say so and likely to be asked to fix it.
Honesty is the policy
Nobody here is asked to oversell, upsell against a customer interest, or defend a decision they think is wrong. Telling a customer the cheaper item is better is a good day, not a lost sale.
Compliance is everyone
You do not have to be the compliance lead to understand why a licence is verified before shipment. Everyone learns the rules that apply to their job.
Real training
Product training, safety training and, for anyone who wants it, range time and instruction. You do not need to arrive as an expert.
The kinds of roles we hire
| Area | What the job involves | What we look for |
|---|---|---|
| Customer support | Email, phone and chat. Order problems, product questions, returns and transfer guidance | Patience, clear writing, willingness to say I do not know but I will find out |
| Sales and product | Writing listings, verifying specifications, advising customers on fit and purpose | Genuine product knowledge and the honesty to admit its limits |
| Compliance | Licence verification, bound book, order screening, record keeping | Meticulous attention to detail and comfort with regulation |
| Fulfilment | Picking, packing, shipping, inventory accuracy | Care, consistency and physical reliability |
| Buying and trades | Valuing firearms, handling estates, managing incoming inventory | Market knowledge and the judgement to give a fair number every time |
| Content and marketing | Guides, product copy, email, photography | Plain writing, no fluff, and the discipline to research before writing |
What we ask of everybody
- You must be legally eligible to work in the United States, and for most roles, eligible to handle firearms under federal and state law.
- A background check is required for any role with access to inventory or customer records. This is not optional in this industry.
- You treat customers, colleagues and dealers with the same courtesy on the worst day of the month as on the best.
- You are willing to write things down. Undocumented knowledge in a small team is a liability.
What we do not require
You do not need to be a competitive shooter, a veteran or a lifelong enthusiast. Some of the best people we have worked with arrived knowing nothing about firearms and cared enormously about getting the right box to the right person on time. Curiosity and conscientiousness are harder to teach than product knowledge.
How to apply
- Send us a short noteTell us what you have done, what you want to do next, and why here rather than anywhere else. Three honest paragraphs beat a page of keywords.
- Attach whatever represents youA resume, a portfolio, a link, or nothing at all if the note says enough.
- Expect a real replyWe answer every application, including the ones we decline. Being ignored after applying is a small indignity and we will not do it.
- Two conversationsThe first is about you and the work. The second usually involves a practical task related to the actual job, paid if it takes real time.
Send applications to info@rangereadysupply.com with the role in the subject line. If nothing listed fits but you think you would be useful for one of our firearms retail careers, write anyway and tell us what you would do here. We keep this page updated whenever new firearms retail careers open up.
