Are there any restrictions on purchasing ammunition from CheaperThanDirt.com?

Asked 2 years ago
Yes, there are several restrictions on purchasing ammunition from CheaperThanDirt.com that potential buyers should be aware of. First and foremost, it is important to understand that ammunition laws vary significantly between states and even local jurisdictions within states. Consequently, CheaperThanDirt adheres to federal, state, and local laws regarding the sale and shipment of ammunition. Buyers must be at least eighteen years of age to purchase shotgun ammunition and twenty-one years old to purchase handgun ammunition, as mandated by federal law. Furthermore, buyers are required to provide valid identification that verifies their age and residency during the purchase process. In states where specific types of ammunition are restricted or prohibited, CheaperThanDirt cannot sell those items to residents of those states. It is also essential for buyers to be aware of any additional regulations in their respective states, such as limitations on the quantity of ammunition that can be purchased at one time or specific types of ammunition that may be banned. Additionally, when placing an order for ammunition, it may be necessary for customers to confirm that they are in compliance with their local laws, which can involve answering specific questions during the checkout process. For the most accurate and current information about purchasing ammunition, it is advisable to consult the relevant sections of the CheaperThanDirt website or directly review the applicable laws in your area.
