How much ammo can someone sell to another person without a license?

[DangerousDrummer]

Because I don't know the other person. He's an 'over the internet' guy. So I don't want to be in the parking lot of a gas station, make the transaction, then have black SUV's come roaring in with lights blaring and Federal Agents jumping out to arrest me.

The very fact that you express the black suv senario shows the current state of our impression of our "federal employees"! I have pondered this and have come to the following conclusion.. As concerns federal gun confiscation, has the federal government ever attempted anything that they did not FUBAR? Besides that, the sissy college boys that the government tends to hire, cannot shoot worth a crap! So maybe there is some good to EEO after all.

You dont have to identify the package as small arms ammo anymore as ups has new stickers that only a driver will know what it is.See the bulletin page and you can download the new orm-d stickers that are a new type we will all have to use by the end of the year anyways.

Well that's not the new requirements at UPS here in Arizona . You must attach a blue "ORM-D Small Arms Ammunition " sticker to the box . The old blue ORM-D sticker is no longer valid , but they will accept a written sticker declaring the contents as " ORM-D Small Arms Ammunition " . UPS is not supposed to give advice as such when you ship , they can only refuse to ship . By the way if you decide to evade all this by lying , an emplemention of an X-Ray machine at most shipping hubs could catch your secret shipment , and get it confiscated . Also store outlets for UPS and Fed-EX have been advised not to accept shipments of firearms or ammo . You must know shipping regs to a state that legally acknowledges that shipment as ammo OK to ship there , and then recipient must be 18-21 years of age . Bottom line you must know shipping restrictions to the state you are shipping to , and you must also be aware of and be ready to provide proof of the buyer's age .

It's not just UPS in Arizona, it's US wide as they have to comply with the "new" "universal" package identifiers.....and yes you have to tell them what's in the box!

BTW, the package X-ray equipment and "sniffers" were installed at our USP Hub more than 5 years ago, I (my company) supplied some of the labor and built some of the conveyor system. ALL outgoing packages that come into the building (some over the road trailers are packed at manufacturing plants and never unload local, only Syracuse/Albany) go through, weather it comes in via a box truck or walk in customer it will get sniffed and an x-ray.

On a slightly different tangent,the new Colorado law makes it a felony to transfer a firearm person to person.That is transfer,not sell,so much for passing down your collection to your children.

So, how do they know if a firearm has been "transferred" if there are no documents proving who bought it in the first place. There is no law that says I need to keep my receipts on a purchase I made 30 years ago!! No way to trace a gun unless it is one that needed to be officially REGISTERD and Licensed, like a full auto or a suppresser.
