no more ammo order from internet?

[stphnman20]

Good thing I know how to reload. ahem!

[Twinsen]

Yeah, I'd have to ship it. It's on the east coast.

So before Feb I need to get out there and send some over.

Find out what day the shipment comes in and visit. My local Walmart has been out of .45 for months, however they are still getting 9mm in every week or two and it just so happens the truck shows up Wednesday morning.

Correct, one of my friend is a Store Manager and has confirmed that Walmart is clearing out its California warehouses of ammo. The only thing I can suggest is buy as much as you can, its heavily discounted and even cheaper than what I can buy online. Hopefully a Judge somewhere will stop the law from going into effect so Walmart will restock and go back to doing normal sales.

Damn that sucks. Both of my local walmart's get it every couple days. tons of everything else, and now a fair amount of .45 My past 2 trips have wielded great results. probably 20 boxes of federal the 1st time. and at least 10 of every brand/variety of .45 the 2nd time. They even had 7 of the 250rd umc mega packs. I can go there early any day i work, so no real problem getting it for me. I wasn't shopping for .45 for a while and started noticing consistent quantities shortly after selling my 1st xd45. Now I have another so the refueling has begun

It's not illegal. You can bring ammo back with you. You just won't be able to get it mail order unless the law is blocked.

Lets hope its blocked. Can we do anything?

I cant see how any reasonable person would expect this law to work with the intent they have for it. All it does is punish the legal firearms owners in the state, and put a run on ammunition from panic buying...bleh

Does this new law include the components for reloading? Powder, Primers etc...?

I dont think this is true. I live in LA and ive been ordering ammo from cabellas for a while now and never had a problem. Only website that wouldnt ship to me for some reason was cheaper than dirt.

I order from cheaper than dirt and use my town's name. I am in Los Angeles city, but I am in Palms or Echo Park or such. No shipping issues.

There's only 1 Wal Mart in my area that still sells ammo. I called the Wal Mart in San Jose and they responded that they, and Mountain View stopped selling not too long ago. Milpitas still sells ammo though.

What, when did MV stop selling ammo? Can anyone confirm?

Not true, 03FFL with a COE is exempt from 962 compliance. We have already been screened by DOJ and FBI. Now getting a vendor to ship will be the tough part.

3 local walmart stores nearby me (in LA county) are stocked up with lots of 9mm ammo (Federal, WWB, and Remy UMC megapacks), and also lots of .45 ammo right now (Federal, WWB, and Remy UMC megapacks). I keep telling myself to buy more, but I already have a few thousand rounds saved up right now.

Yea im not sure what happened. Kept saying i couldnt ship to po boxes but i wasnt trying to ship it to one. Tried putting in my adress again a couple times and just gave up after it wouldnt work.

Internet and mail order ammo sellers are not supposed to ship to addresses in the city of Los Angeles. County okay. I can dig up the city ordinance.

To the people who think they are going to drive back over the state border on feb 1 from az with 10000 rounds the man has other ideas. And so do a number of store owners I spoke too on the other side of the border err iron wall. Either buy before the end of jan preferably after xmas or way before or wait until april / may. Some officers will have it in there mind that large quantities equal intent to distribute and will act as such.

What about reloading components after Feb of 2011 will they ship to Ca?

Presuming first that the law is not squashed ...

1) reloading components are NOT included as 'handgun ammunition'

2) the language of the law lends itself to misinterpretation.

See the long explanation here.
