Ammunition at a yard sale

[TBaker]

Is it illegal to sell factory manufactured ammunition at a yard sale?

 

[Exodus]

Why would it be?

 

[BogWalker]

I think factory is just fine, but hand loads are a big no.

Where is it???

Yea, I THINK?? that it's a Felony to sell ammo at a yard sale.

Just tell me the location+I'll "Take Care" of it...Bill.

There are restrictions as to what can be sold in yard sales. I would check you local court house for a list.

 

[eldirector]

No.

It would be illegal for local municipalities to have an ordinance (State preemption).

Even hand-loads would be legal. Maybe not advisable, but that is completely different.

Nope, and if someone tells you it is, request they show you the relevant IC code or US code to prove it.

Isn't it illegal to sell ammo to a felon or other "prohibited person," or is that just for FFL's?

Only one way to find out.

Correct. Federal law prohibits selling to a "prohibited" person. As always, it is on the seller to do due diligence.

Garage sales, flea markets, and such or no different than classified ads.

Before 1986 there were laws that required federal license to sell ammo. And sales were recorded. I don't think the feds care who sells now as long as they get the excise taxes. I think that's done at the wholesale levels. Selling reloads is complicated because of the excise tax....so complicated that. I couldn't explain it if I understood it. I'd never buy reloads from a stranger for safety and liability reasons.

Don't let the homeowners association find out they will try to shut you down. They are the ones trying to take our guns away from us.

I sped to the liquor store yesterday after a 12 pack because I was out and wanted a better buzz...

OK, I don;t really drink but ai do speed. Sue me.

Thanks for all the comments. I can say that the yard sale went off without a hitch and I sold a couple boxes of ammo that I didn't need anymore. No issues, no 3 letter agencies showed up at my house!

I only buy black velvet portraits of Elvis at yard sales. That, and any ceramic ashtrays in the shape of a bigassed orange lobster......
