Title: Shipping Ammo to Delaware
Post by: robberbaron on April 12, 2013, 12:15:22 AM
I am trying to purchase 9MM ammo at GunBroker, but the seller states he will not ship to Delaware. I have never had a problem buying online before. Am I missing something?

As an update, the seller has re-considered and will ship to DE, as he can find nothing online to prevent it.

I received ammo from a seller on Gun Broker 2 weeks ago. It should not be a problem for any shipper to send ammo to DE.

it's because of a ban of certain types of ammunition in Killmington.   A few major retailers won't ship to DE at all in a blanket ban to stay legal.

I bid on some Ammo and needless to say I found out after I placed the bid that the Seller had in the description that he didn't ship to DE. So I messaged him right away asking whats up with that ? There were no restrictions as of yet with shipping to Delaware...... He sent this reply --->

We ship anywhere it is legal. Some people have sent emails stating it was illegal to ship
to certain areas, so we just put that on the site. Those that know better bid on the auctions
knowing we will ship to them.

ON shipping ammo lests say a place does not want you like NY.

Is it agianst a federal law to ship there, A de state law to ship there, or a ny law that hits the seller. I have seen some on gunbroker with pmags ( i might sell some) that say they will ship them to ban states and I am not sure how.

they can ship to ban states by completely disassembling the mags prior to shipment and selling them as "rebuilt kits" with the disclaimer that it is not to be used as a 30 round mag and must be "rebuilt" to conform to that particular states laws.  It a Loophole in the system

Thanks

I have some pmags that I have been looking to sell and it appears that I might have to sell the rest on ebay.
