shipping ammunition

[Bersalover]

I have been looking and cannot find a list of where it is prohibited to ship ammo to in different states/counties etc. Does anyone know where this info can be found?

Many thanks

Call UPS and ask them . I've shipped .223 through them . They require a hazmat lable saying small arms ammo . That was before the insanity started . It may be different now .

You can ship ammo through UPS as long as you follow their labeling requirements. You'll most likely need to take it to an actual UPS hub, not one of their stores.
But you can't ship it through USPS

ORD-M Shipping..

GunBroker.com Message Forums - Shipping ammunition via UPS
^^^This will give you the info for ammo shipping.

FWIW: You can Google ORD-M Label, and print out your own...Bill.

If USPS allowed ammo shipping can you imagine the business they would make with those nifty little flat rate boxes?

Reading Comprehension Skills. He's asking for a list of places where he cannot ship ammo.

There is no location in America where you cannot ship ammo. Ship it UPS and follow their instructions. You do not need a pre-printed label. You can use a marker and draw one on the box. Draw a rectangle, write "ORM-D" inside it, and then write "Cartridges" above the rectangle and "Small Arms" below the rectangle. It must go ground. You will have to take it to a UPS hub. You cannot go to a "UPS Store", etc.

Anywhere lower 48 should be good as long as it is legal in that state, but HI and AK may need a different method.

I also know that when Ive purchased ammo online, the sites will tell me that ammo cannot be shipped to NY, MA, Chicago, NJ, HI, DC.

I think thats all of them, I may have missed one or two

I hate surprises.

After making a deal with an online shooter, I can't count how many times I've rec'd a package and found violations contained within. I wish more people were as concientious as you and determine what is allowed and what is not! Thanks for your posting.

Certain types of ammunition (hollow points or Teflon armor-piercing cop-killing magnum bambi slayers) are illegal in many areas (New Jersey?).
