Sportsman's Guide Firearm Privacy Settlement: Up to $145 for Pennsylvania Buyers
Updated September 10, 2026 · By Class Action Buddy
Short answer: if you ordered or reserved a firearm on Sportsman's Guide's website while living in Pennsylvania between January 11, 2021 and July 7, 2026, you can claim up to $145 from the DeLong v. Sportsman's Guide settlement. Filing the claim form by October 5, 2026 is the only way to be paid — doing nothing keeps you in the class, pays nothing, and still releases your claims.
What this settlement is about
The case is DeLong v. Sportsman's Guide, LLC, Case No. CV-2025-000911, in the Court of Common Pleas of Delaware County, Pennsylvania. The lawsuit alleges that Sportsman's Guide disclosed information about firearm purchases made on its website to third parties without consent — conduct the suit says violates two Pennsylvania statutes: the Wiretapping and Electronic Surveillance Control Act (WESCA) and the disclosure provision of the Pennsylvania Uniform Firearms Act.
Firearm-purchase records get stronger statutory protection in Pennsylvania than most retail data, which is why this case exists at all. Sportsman's Guide denies doing anything wrong, and the court has not ruled on the merits — the settlement is a compromise that ends the case.
Who qualifies
Per the official settlement site, you are included if, from January 11, 2021 through July 7, 2026, you ordered or reserved a firearm from Sportsman's Guide's website while residing in Pennsylvania.
The class was identified from the company's own records — the settlement site opens with "Our Records Indicate You Ordered or Reserved a Firearm" — and mailed notices went out on August 6, 2026. If a notice reached you, you are in the class. If you qualify but the notice missed you, you can still file; the claim form is public, online or by mail.
Residents of other states are outside this class. This settlement rests on Pennsylvania statutes and covers Pennsylvania buyers only.
How much it pays, and how to file
- Valid claims receive a payment of up to $145.00.
- Filing the claim form is the only way to receive a payment.
- The fastest route is the online claim form; a printable version can be mailed to the administrator instead.
Key dates
| Claim deadline | October 5, 2026 |
| Opt-out / objection deadline | September 21, 2026 |

Doing nothing is the worst of the options here: you stay in the class, receive no payment, and give up the covered claims anyway. If you qualify, file; if you want to keep your right to sue separately, the opt-out window closes September 21.
