June 3, 20197 yr I received an email from a friend, tried myself, Try to purchase a WW2 rifle scope on ebay, Blocked!!! Because I live in NJ!!!!! NJ contacted ebay and any purchase related to a firearm is blocked.
June 3, 20197 yr I cannot see how that is the case - I just bought a set of three mags last week for my model 59.......

June 3, 20197 yr Author Nick, I received this from Rolling Thunder on CMP. Rolling Thunder Join Date: Oct 2009 Posts: 931 Ebay and Firearms Parts Gentlemen, Apparently NJ has subpoenaed Ebay to prevent NJ residents from bidding on any firearm related items on Ebay. The item in the Ebay message below that was bid on was a Lyman scope. After some aggravation attemping to find a solution Ebay Support had to kick the problem 'upstairs' to Corporate because they claimed to not know anything about it and they had no solution to the issue. The message below is what was received back from Ebay. There was no previous advisory from Ebay regarding this which is not surprising. There is no sense complaining to Ebay, their hands are tied and there is no way to know how wide-spread and inconsistent this is until you bid on an item from NJ. You can be sure other states will follow if they haven't already. _____________________________________________ Hello David, I'm emailing you back in regards to the block that you have received when trying to bid on item# XXXXXXXXXXXX. I found through my research that there is an issue with the bidding/purchase of this item due to New Jersey gun laws, There is something about this item that could potentially conflict with the local law and that is why our system is blocking this purchase and I have no way of overriding this block. Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause, If you have anymore questions feel free to give us a call.

June 3, 20197 yr Hmm. You should forward this to the NJ2AS and see if they would be interested in assessing this before it spreads to other major retailers of shooting sports accessories.

Ebay sellers can’t block other individual states. I just went on eBay and was able to add several firearm parts to my “basket” including magazines and sights. Didn’t actually buy anything though.

June 3, 20197 yr It is setup for an ITAR block - lol - It looks like this item is restricted for export under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations, ITAR (22 CFR, Parts 120-130) or the Export Administration Regulations, EAR (15 CFR, Parts 730-774).

June 3, 20197 yr eBay really Sucks. you have 22 year old SJW's answering thephones and when you ask for a supervisor you get a 24 yo SJW. Screw eBay. I did.
June 4, 20197 yr If this is true, it’s all part of his plan. He is attacking everything about guns but not the gun itself. He can stand up there, as he does, and claims he’s not stopping honest gun ownership. But the scumbag is making keeping them impossible. We’ll own guns but not have parts or ammo. But we’ll still own guns.
June 4, 20197 yr Get yourself TOR Browser. Firearms websites are blocked at work, but not if I use TOR. https://www.torproject.org/download/
June 4, 20197 yr ITAAR no longer restricts scopes except those with certain thermal and night vision capabilities.

But we’ll still own guns. and we'll be able to use them as clubs, hammers and paperweights instead, since ammo and parts will be gone.
June 4, 20197 yr 2 minutes ago, ogfarmer said: sold scopes and magazines on there last month, no issues But that would be out going. Coming in the state is what Beaver Face is trying to stop.
June 4, 20197 yr I just bought a handgun magazine on ebay this morning and it is listed as being shipped.
June 4, 20197 yr What’s more likely?: A. The state of NJ has semi-successfully lobbied eBay to prevent shipments of *some* (where “some” currently stands at 1 identified item) firearms related items to NJ -or- B. A single scope listed on eBay has a mis-classification as being ITAR regulated and/or illegal in NJ. I vote B.

June 4, 20197 yr Author According to Rolling Thunder on CMP this has happened previously. Possibly on sniper scopes.

And if you know what your looking at you can find 10 plus round magzines I regularly see 13 rnd HP mags...
