    I've found some shotgun ammo I'd like to buy in Arizona. What's the applicable MD law about importing the stuff to MD?

    Nothing to worry about. Order away.
    The only restrictions I can think of off hand are if you are under 18 (for long gun ammo), are if you were a "prohibitted person" (e.g. felon, mental defective, etc.), or maybe live within Annapolis city limits due to their registering of ammunition sellers and such law (which may not be a legal law due to state preemption).

    If you live anywhere besides in Annapolis, then you can definitely purchase, order and recieve shotgun ammo interstate. I am not a lawyer, but I am so sure I order shotgun, pistol and rifle ammo interstate myself.

    Under 18? Nope.
    Prohibited person? Nope.
    In Annapolis? Nope.

    Hooray!

    Lots of dealers won't ship ammo to Montgomery County. That includes AIM Surplus, Cheaper than Dirt and Sportsman's Guide. It is frustrating as hell which I wait for the gun shows.

    No worries. I'm near Catonsville, so as long as they don't restrict shipments to Baltimore County, I'm good.

    And that is based on a law that was declared moot more than twenty years ago.
    I can't blame them for being cautious, but they are simply wrong nevertheless. Even the book the feds send them with thier FFL package states the law is no longer is in effect since the mid 1980s.

    I wonder if J&G Sales will ship ammo to MoCo. 500 rounds of S&B 180 gr .40 S&W for $142. 1000 rounds of Wolf .223 55 or 62 gr FMJ for $210 (for my 5.56 NATO AK).

    Sportsman's guide has shipped me ammo in MoCO as recently as three weeks ago. Just order it and ignore the warning on the website and catalog. This would be the third shipment this year. The canceled my order two years back over this, but seem to be shipping again on the down-low.
