Quick question regarding purchasing ammunition online

[Verci0013]

Quick question, When purchasing ammunition online how does shipping work? Does it have to go through an FFL or any sort of middle man (other than the parcel worker)?

You call and order, give them credit card # and it shows up in a week. They ship through UPS and mark the box ORD-M.

No muss, no fuss. Beware of shipping fees. Most are reasonable, some outrageous. I have had great luck w/ Palmetto (in GA) - google them. Also, a local problem for me - some get confused about Orange County, CA and won't ship. They are referring to NY Orange County, I believe.

Good luck, and don't buy that russian crap. It works, but fires uneven... Some ranges absolutely will NOT let you use Wolf/Brown Bear/Tula etc.

Sweet, thank you very much! I have never considered purchasing Ammunition online until recently. Just wanted to make sure I'm not going to end up running back in forth to my local FFL or anything haha

I had an out of state buddy ship me some ammo and he hand wrote the ORD-M on the box - no problem!!

The proper markings are actually ORM-D in a box, with Cartridges, Small Arms around that in a box. I've seen them accept hand-marked, too, though, as mentioned above.

Some places may make you fax them a copy of your Drivers License to ensure you are at least 18 years old. No biggie once you do, you are GTG with them.

Buy what you can because by Feb 2011, you won't be able to make ammo purchases online.
