I had Brownells and Primary Arms cancel orders for standard capacity magazines for AR15 (5.56), AK74, AK47 because my credit card billing address is in a restricted state even though my shipping address is not.  That seems a bit silly doesn't it?  If they ship to Florida and I'm dumb enough to bring back to NYC how is that on them?  They have a record of the transaction.  I called and told them how silly is that?   I gave them a credit card where the billing address was FL and told them I could still travel back to NYC with them--I wouldn't but I don't see their liability on this.  Just a lot more jackassery when it comes to online firearms sales.

On the other hand, it could be their payment processor that has this restriction...

i.e. "Customer's billing address, i.e. primary residence is in a restricted state and you still shipped them an illegal item."

Lots of places won't accept shipping to non billing addresses without having called the CC company and set up the other address as an alternate shipping address. 

 

call and find out, I'm curious

They both said it was their policy and I didn’t ask any questions.  I’d be surprised if it were the payment processor that knows the laws or the items I ordered, just the total, credit card number, zip code for verification.  I called another place in in NC and they did it no problem.
