TERMS OF USE/TERMS OF SERVICE for all purchases and activity on Badger-Ridge.com (operated by Badger Ridge LLC, aka Badger Ridge):

DO NOT SEND BADGER RIDGE ANY DRILLED FREEZE PLUGS: WE WILL DESTROY ANY WE RECEIVE AND NO CREDIT WILL BE GIVEN.

VACATION/SERVICE DAYS:  Badger Ridge observes all federal holidays.   Badger Ridge is a family run business.  We reserve the privilege to not ship nor perform installation services on the 10 days before or following: Thanksgiving, Christmas, New-year’s eve, Independence day, Opening day of Michigan Gun deer (15 November), Easter (Good Friday/Easter weekend).   Badger Ridge also reserves the right to not perform installation or produce items when it’s posted here or on our main page that we are not shipping for any period or during periods of planned vacations, or having technical issues.  Be advised, we (as a small family run business) hunt, get sick/hurt, and have family emergencies too.  Planned vacations currently are end of March 2025 until  early April (expect slow to no service during this period – due to a hunting trip).

POSTED TECHNICAL ISSUES:   None known Currently.   However, we live in the country, our internet goes out,  and our back-up service is very slow.  Please be patient while we endeavor to get your order processed.   

ESTIMATED TURN AROUND TIMES FOR SERVICES: Our priority is quality of service, any estimates of time to perform those services are our best guesses and not binding.   We work diligently to complete installation services in the order the items are are received, while maintaining our standards of quality.  See VACATION/SERVICE DAYS for more things that could impact turn around for services.  

SALES TAX:  Badger Ridge charges sales tax to orders shipped to residents of the State of Michigan.

CALIBER SELECTION: If buying a 45/54 caliber product, customers must be sure to select corresponding items/kits.  Its always best to specify the rifle’s caliber using a “Note to Seller.”   Badger Ridge ships 50 caliber by default.

RETURNS:  A customer must contact Badger Ridge and obtain a RMA prior to sending any item for return or refund.   Any item that has been damaged or modified will not be accepted for return.   Shipping for returns is at customer’s cost.  Upon receipt Badger Ridge will inspect the item(s) and have 10 business days to determine a course of action.  Badger Ridge reserves the right to any combination of the following:  refuse refund, destroy, refund, and/or return the item(s).   Installation fees on completed installations and shipping fees are not refundable.  Returns are subject to the higher of: a 15% restocking fee  -or- our shipping and handling costs (minimum of $7.00).

CANCELING AN ORDER:   Once an order status is changed to ‘shipped’ it cannot be canceled without incurring a fee (see RETURNS above).  If an order is received by the shipping agent it cannot be canceled:  shipped orders may be returned per the terms in “RETURNS” above.   1% of the total sales price (including taxes) will be held (ie not refunded) of any order canceled prior to shipping.  This is due to our credit card processing company not refunding the entire balance to us (the credit card processor keeps 1% of the sale when we issue a refund).

SHIPPING:   Badger Ridge may chose a different shipping company, or rate/priority, from that chosen by customers, at our discretion.   Orders are typically shipped Monday through Friday.  Badger Ridge does not ship on Federal Holidays.  Items that are sitting on the shelf typically go out the next business day, but it may take Badger Ridge a few days, or even a week or longer, to make what is ordered.   Badger Ridge reserves the right to hold an order until all items are in stock, and ship an order in one shipment, or to break it into multiple shipments, at Badger Ridge’s discretion.    Badger Ridge typically ships USPS to the US, HI, PR, and AK (US, HI, PR & AK are called “US” here on).

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: Badger Ridge DOES NOT SHIP INTERNATIONALLY with one exception:  we will ship the following categories to Canada:  Muzzle-Loading equipment/accessories, automotive items, organization items, 3D printed accessories, apparel, and muzzle-loader replacement parts.    Expect minimum fee of $13.50 USD to ship to Canada; no free shipping to Canada.  Actual customer’s shipping costs to Canada are calculated at check out (aka “Canadian Shipping Fee”).   The customer is responsible for any and all import fees, taxes, duties, etc.  All prices are in USD.

UPGRADED SHIPPING:  Badger Ridge ships USPS Priority Express when “Rush” shipping is purchased.    If a customer purchases “Overnight” shipping Badger Ridge will attempt to oblige but may reduce the shipping to whatever level Badger Ridge deems acceptable (Priority, 2 day, etc).    By purchasing “RUSH”, “Overnight”, “Two Day”, “Priority” shipping, etc. a customer is only purchasing a faster shipping rate:  purchasing these shipping methods do not jump an order to the ‘head of the line’, nor in anyway decreases the time it takes to make nor install  item(s), nor the time Badger Ridge will utilize to process the order.

SHIPPING FEES:   Badger Ridge offers low flat rate shipping to the US on any order over $100.00 subtotal.   Purchases of less than a subtotal of $100.00 will incur a shipping fee.   We offer flat rate shipping for orders that don’t qualify for free shipping: currently the flat rate is $7.49 for USPS 1st Class shipping (orders that weigh up to 15.9oz), and is $10.49 for for orders 1lb to 2.5lbs, $15.99 for heavier than 2.5 lbs.   Bulky orders will be charged $15.99 unless they subtotal over $100 USD.  Other rates & shipping options are offered to customers and calculated by the check out system during check out.

ERRORS IN ADDRESS:  Shipments sent to the to the address provided to Badger Ridge by the customer either corrected or uncorrected by the carrier, and subsequently returned to Badger Ridge, will be subject to additional shipping charges if the customer wishes to reship the order (aka: reshipping fee).  If a reshipping fee is not paid, Badger Ridge will refund the purchase less shipping and handling costs (see RETURNS above) plus the 1% credit card processing fee (see CANCELING AN ORDER above).

LOST OR DAMAGED SHIPMENTS:  Badger Ridge’s liability only extends to giving the package to the shipping agent.  Orders provided to the shipping agent, but lost or damaged in shipment are beyond Badger Ridge’s liability.  For instance, if the shipping agent shows the item as received/en-route/delivered to destination/lost etc; Badger Ridge is not liable.  The customer is encouraged to take such grievances to the shipping company, and to consider purchasing the shipping company’s insurance during check out.

PAYMENT:   All credit card payments to Badger Ridge are processed through a third party:  Stripe.   Only major credit cards are accepted.   We do not accept PAYPAL, and don’t think you should do business with them either: they are ‘woke’ and have stolen funds from us and many other patriots in the name of their “wokeness”.
