It wouldnt even be a 2A law, its be an interstate commerce shipping gunpowder law.

The Colorado movie theater shooter also bought this ammo online, im sure a lot more mass shooters have as well.

Where did he get the gun?

I wanted to focus on unlimited online ammo purchasing bc I think we can or should all agree that shouldnt be possible. When you get into "where did he get the gun" .... youre entering a territory where no sides will ever agree and its been debated ad nauseum.

Im trying to find one thing, even staunch 2As would support.

Mind blowing that a 13 year old with a prepaid visa gift card could buy 100 rounds of ammo right now.

I should have specified 21 or over as that what it said federal law was for internet purchase of ammo and fire arms. I mostly ship USPS and once in a while Fedex or UPS. You can only specify "Adult Signature Required" that would be anyone 18+ that answers the door at the delivery address. Nowhere is it found a specific person has to sign for the package or someone 21+. I do agree that a 13 year old should not be able to order ammo with a debit card. I am pretty sure a lot of those places take Paypal that you can sign up for using an anonymous e-mail address.

Also if you are in a secure area most often a driver will leave packages that require signatures if no one is home.
