Is it illegal to sell ammo...
My Family and I own a small store and I was wondering if I could sell my excess ammunition in the store.
Are there any state or federal laws that would prevent me from selling a small amount of ammunition inside our business?

Re: Is it illegal to sell ammo...
Hi,
I would be interested in that S&W 40 if you no longer have your firearm. What loads do you have?

Re: Is it illegal to sell ammo...
If you sell ammo loaded by a licensed manufacturer like Remington, Winny, etc - no federal license needed.
If you load or reload ammo, or make bullets for sale - you'll need a federal license for sure. I'm sure there is leeway for just selling a little bit that you loaded for personal use.
A couple definitions just incase anyone is interested in loading to sell/resell.
(10) The term "manufacturer" means any person engaged in the business of manufacturing firearms or ammunition for purposes of sale or distribution; and the term "licensed manufacturer" means any such person licensed under the provisions of this chapter.
(17)(A) The term "ammunition" means ammunition or cartridge cases, primers, bullets, or propellent powder designed for use in any firearm.

Re: Is it illegal to sell ammo...
I had the same question. I had a 30-06 rifle that I recently sold, and i have 7 boxes of unopened factory hunting rounds. Would a gun shop buy these from me, or can I sell them privately?

I see small quantities of ammo for sale all the time in small private convenience stores, hardware store etc.
