    Purchasing powder from Texas

    I tried to place an order for reloading powder from a vendor in Texas and they want a copy of a gun license. This is their response to my question: Please send us a valid gun license, firearm certificate or any equivalent document to process your order, thank you!
    Does this seem odd? Thanks

        Alan you seem to be having a tough go of it regarding reloading and just general gun related stuff. Why the hell do they need that info when you can purchase powder from multiple places online with nothing more than payment and shipping address?

            Are you in SF or LA? They have some odd laws.

              Very odd posts from a 7 year member. I don't mind helping but feel like were being trolled at times. At no point have I ever had his troubles.

                  Maybe their system is set up for selling guns only and it's messed up. Call them.

                    Hmmmm, only finds vendors in Serbia that accept Venmo or bitcoins, vendors that don’t sell projectiles in Cali, vendors that require excess paperwork on powder, etc, etc etc.

                        Sadly I think we are being trolled. As a long time user of the internet, hell back to Prodigy days, you get a understanding of the dangers of the internet. Where things to good to be true, are exactly that and I delete the email without reading. Hell I delete emails from my dad without reading as the vernacular of the message screams hacker, and I've told me father as much.

                        But this guy, alanwk, is either the stupidest human to ever grace the internet or the most ignorant human to try and enter commerce where he has replied to that Nigerian prince trying to hook up and take him out on the town because he was so gracious to bestow on him the millions of dollars he was offering that alanwk just doesn't seem to have the IQ to interact with other people. He's the guy that gives your address to the FBI because they have a questionare they would like them to fill out. Hes the guy that, in a SHTF scenario, would allow the enemy into the compound because they offered a better way of life.

                        Or he's a troll. The worst human being class on the internet.

                          This is too much. This can't be real.

                            Did you finally find a scammer that takes credit cards?

                              OP here is either an incredibly masochistic troll or the most inept interweb reloader on the planet's surface.

                              Beginning to wonder if this is some kind of Munchausen's "by internet" syndrome..
