Me too. I am old enough to remember having to sign a book when buying handgun ammo and thought the 86 act allowing mail order ammo purchases was a huge improvement.
Banning online sales is one of those things that is easy to say but gets a lot harder when you have to define all the details and pass a law. I am not sure what is meant by an ban on online sales of guns and ammo. Online gun sales have been illegal a long time unless you live in the same state or go through a FFL. And while there are local online trading boards I have never seen anyone ship a gun without going through a FFL even if the buyer is in the same state. Definitely a solution is search of a problem
Any such law would likely end up being implemented so buying ammo online would be like buying a gun online. It would have to go through a FFL who would charge you something. It would have less effect if you make really big purchases and would most hurt those that buy a box or two at a time.
