I sent once fired brass to MA in a Priority Mail box. The Post Master here said no problem, but I don't know what MA thinks....
 
NY bans online ammo sales to NY. Ammo must be purchased at licensed seller for AMMO. However reloading supplies are different.

Look at Midway USA shipping policy regarding AMMO to NY versus reloading components.

Midway will sell NY residents Reloading supplies.
 
Erroneous opinions are whats made the internet so great....... and while we're advising one another I'd advise anybody who asks a question about the legality of doing something, to expect a certain percentage of erroneous opinions.

Is it legal to like chocolate chip cookies
 
Some vendors, who actually know the law, will sell factory ammo to NYer's, and it's legal despite the efforts of the oppressors to dictate otherwise.


Brass, components are shipped every day.

Companies such as Midway, and others, are just ignorant of the law(despite efforts to inform them by gun owners) or just don't want to hassle with the constantly changing landscape. Can't really blame them.

NY Safe Act - Online Ammunition Sales


Just mere days after celebrating our great nation’s independence, Republicans have taken a huge step forward for Second Amendment supports and making substantial changes to New York’s SAFE Act by fortifying an obligatory “memorandum of understanding”(M.O.U). State Senator James L. Seward has pushed for change since the 2013 when the SAFE act was originally sanctioned.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo has agreed to suspend plans for background checks for ammunition sales in New York and allow internet sales of ammunition, changing part of the NY Safe Act, according to state Sen. James Seward.

“While I will continue to work for full repeal of the poorly crafted, over-reaching NY-SAFE Act, this is a significant accomplishment—and constitutes the only modifications that have been made to this law since it was enacted two years ago over my objection”. Seward has continually stated that the database for ammunition was faulty and "fraught with problems since it was first conceived," and be removing this aspect, it will prevent any future money from being squandered. With the backing and support of Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan and Jim Malatras, director of state operations, this can only be considered a big win for both the State of New York and for its private citizens. The focus of these changed laid in two parts “The two provisions that will be changed are both related to ammunition. The MOU, which was signed by New York State Director of Operations James Malatras and Senate Majority Leader John Flanagan, puts an end to the portion of the act that would establish a database and require those who purchase ammunition to undergo a background check. It also ends the moratorium on on-line purchases of ammunition”.

Chocolate Chip cookies were illegal in Wyoming from 1917 until 1956. During that time only oatmeal raisin cookies were allowed. Anyone caught using chocolate was assumed to be a spy sent by the Kaiser and promptly hanged.

Nothing worse than thinking you have a chocolate chip cookie and biting into a nasty damn raisin. :mad:
 
I hope the OP's question has been settled. But for the sake of clarity- It is 100% legal to ship reloading components, which you have sold to a NY resident, into NY. If you had a relative/friend in NY it would also be legal to ship a GIFT of ammunition to them. The ban only applies to internet sales.
 
It is good to hear that everyone in NY is now SAFE!:D

Just to be really really safe you might want to deprime the brass and wash it really well as there may be powder or lead residue on it!:eek:

For the second time.
There is no ban on internet sales, I routinely order via the net. Ammo shipped right to my door from vendors, not friends, totally legal. Targetsportsusa being one prominent vendor, there's others.
Some retailers just won't ship because they don't want to bother with confusing NY laws.
Read my previous post.
