Hey, OK, I'm a certified American citizen and resident of Texas. I have some unneeded ammo I need to sell off. Are there any FL state laws that disallow me from doing a private person (unlicensed) to person (unlicensed) sale and shipment from TX to FL? I have read that the same laws that apply to individuals for possession of firearms in FL applies to ammo as well. True? If that is the case, how would I know if the purchaser is allowed to purchase, other than me asking them and expecting an honest answer. ( )
Basically, is there a risk here or am I worried about nothing?
If you need more info let me know. The ammo is nothing prohibited by federal or state regulations.
Thanks!
Legal to Sell Ammo into FL from another state?
No worries selling ammo to Floridian's.
Big deal about nothing.
Here's the skinny...

Florida law prohibits the possession of ammunition by the same persons who are directly prohibited by Florida law from possessing firearms, although the persons who are prevented from obtaining firearms through the background check process required by Florida law are not similarly prevented from obtaining ammunition.1 The federal ammunition purchaser prohibitions also apply.
Florida prohibits the manufacture, sale or delivery of any armor-piercing bullet or exploding bullet, or “dragon’s breath” shotgun shell, bolo shell, or flechette shell.2 The state also prohibits the possession of an armor-piercing bullet or exploding bullet with knowledge of its armor-piercing or exploding capabilities loaded in a handgun, and the possession of a dragon’s breath shotgun shell, bolo shell, or flechette shell with knowledge of its capabilities loaded in any firearm.3 Each of these terms is defined.4 The definition of “armor-piercing bullet” differs from the definition of “armor-piercing ammunition” in federal law, which also restricts the manufacture, sale, importation and delivery of such ammunition.
Florida law does not:
Impose a minimum age for the purchase or possession of ammunition, although federal minimum age requirements apply;
Require a license for the sale of ammunition;
Require a license for the purchase or possession of ammunition;
Require sellers of ammunition to maintain a record of the purchasers;
Require the safe storage of ammunition; or
Restrict the locations where ammunition may be carried.
First, don't take legal advice from a forum.
Completely ignoring the above... this is factory ammo- yes? There are some interesting wrinkles if this is reloads... Gets really interesting if you made them. Otherwise it is much more straightforward- ORM-D cartridges small arms and find a shipper willing to ship.

Make sure the head-stamps on your reloads match the factory ammo box you ship them in.
This is Monarch (Academy) brand. And yes, I know a forum isn't the best place for legal advice, . I've asked questions on other forums in the past and the answers are all over the place.Taco wrote: ↑Fri Jan 08, 2021 11:21 pm First, don't take legal advice from a forum.

You're telling me you can't find a buyer for ammo in Texas?
Why bother with shipping?
