Why does Westrifle require DOB and City of birth for standard purchases?

This order was for firearms I believe. I still don't have order number yet. I just don't like that you said that "So its company policy to invade privacy? " Westrifle does not invade anyone privacy . Also I never said you need PAL for stocks. I made a mistake putting magazines into that category. I am sorry.

I understand for ammunition/firearms, but i dont believe mags or stocks or anything like that require a PAL to purchase.

My order was NOT for firearms or ammo or anything else that requires a PAL.
I did not complete the transaction because I DO NOT wish to provide my DOB or place of birth.
If you remove that requirment, I would be happy to purchase from your website.

It may only be a website error, but it rubs me the wrong way.
Please let me know when it is fixed, my e-mail is cet1@3web.com.

Thanking you in advance.

sergey96, sorry i blew it a little out of proportion, i just have issues with retailers (not just you) keeping record of our PAL and personal information when we purchase non firearms, i realize that a PAL has to be shown when purchasing ammo, and firearms, i just dont like the idea of recording that information when not needed by law. I have no issue with you, i've bought SKS's from you and will continue to do so My vent was toward retailers in general recording my information and i didnt mean to dump it on you.

So its company policy to invade privacy? BTW, you dont need a PAL to buy magazines

They just need it when you buy ammo or a rifle to look it up on the online system dealers use. They go yep it's valid that person does exist looks good send it. Other then that it's just a default setting on the site for all orders just leave it blank if you're buying anything that's not a firearm or ammo.

What is your order number? Send me an email it is somekind of confusion. If you are buying magazines, ammunition or firearms then yes. If you are buying sling or scope then I do not ask for it. Email me at master@westrifle.com

You don't need pal to buy magazines.

Tried that, the information must be submitted or the form returns an error and will not procede.
There is NO option available.
