Buying at an out of state gun shop.

[fatalsports]

Just curious..how much were those Kriss mags going for?

$79.99, bought 2

I called about 6-7 gun stores around orlando, only 2 had some.
One had 12 in stock but wanted $119, the other place only had 2...but was selling for 79.99.

The only thing both dealers here in FL told me was, if I was buying a handgun then it would have to be shipped to my FFL in MD.

Correct.

But any rifle (AR/AK/Anything) can be bought straight at the store as a cash and carry item.

In doing so you would be violating the Gun Control Act of 1968 (if a regulated long gun) and/or MD Public Safety Title 5 Section 5-204 code. You could reasonably expect to be prosecuted on federal and/or state charges.

That's a good get...they were around $65 before The Crisis...

Federal law does not prohibit buying long gun in ANY state, if purchased from an FFL.

A person may only acquire a firearm within the person’s own State, except that he or she may purchase or otherwise acquire a rifle or shotgun, in person, at a licensee’s premises in any State, provided the sale complies with State laws applicable in the State of sale and the State where the purchaser resides. A person may borrow or rent a firearm in any State for temporary use for lawful sporting purposes.

[18 U.S.C. 922(a)(3) and (5), 922(b)(3), 27 CFR 478.29 and 478.30]

MD law prohibits you from buying a MD regulated gun from outside the state.

The adjoining states part of GCA 68 was changed MANY years ago.

I'm confused now, so you can buy a non-regulated firearms from any state, even the one you do not reside it...as long as it's not regulated and you can cash and carry it out of there?

So, I can legally buy a MD defined non-regulated AR(HBAR) in Florida as a cash and carry without any issues?

Federal law does not prohibit it.

I don't know if MD has any laws regarding this.

But in the past, I have purchased long guns in other states (not adjacent). BUT, some FFLs will not sell to out of state people or people who reside in certain states (MD can be one), as they do not want to keep up with the laws and what is allowed and not allowed in those states.

No, you cannot. As a MD resident, you must do an FFL transfer to purchase an HBAR from a FL FFL (assuming you're not also a FL resident).

Never forget that ignorance of the law is no excuse when MSP comes knocking on your door at the request of the AG's office. The AG loves to make a very public example out of crap like this.

That cite doesn't actually say you can't buy in a state not adjacent. Not saying they don't interpret it that way.

I found that entire section, and while it defines a resident of an adjacent state for that section, the term is not used.
