    Some items in your cart can not be shipped to your location due to federal or state regulations:
    4.9" THREADED BARREL - MODEL GSG FIREFLY can not be shipped to MD.

    It's hard to fault dealers for throwing their hands up instead of trying to wade through the mess our legislators have made of our gun laws.

    Disagree. It's very easy. **** those guys for inventing new private gun control rules.

    See? Easy.

    If we say it’s ok for companies to stop shipping to MD then we’re already done. I think it’s total BS and anti 2A. Some companies won’t ship any firearms to Md already. We need a list of these companies and to boycott them. Had one guy tell me what he would and wouldn’t ship to MD. I told him as far as my customers and myself are concerned your not shipping anything. The products you choose to cherry pick we’ll buy elsewhere.

    It's not so much we're saying it's " OK " . We're understanding how it can be a rational business decision .

    If you need it that bad, I'm just over the line in WV. You can ship it to my house and pending where you are located, I can either ship it to you or meet you somewhere.

    Thanks for offers. This was a nice-to-have $45 barrel that might go with a suppressor I have and is heavier than the gun lol. It already has raised my blood pressure what too much lol. Honestly I just want to tell ATI customer service to иди на хуй

    I know WE would like to see all the firearms companies be staunch supporters of the 2A. Some are. Of course, they are also business owners. It's also a lot of work on their part. OTOH, we can find businesses who are sane and move our business to them.

    Connecticut.

    Any part or parts designed to make an "assault weapon" is, itself, an "assault weapon." Since we have a one-feature test for semi-auto pistols, it's technically unlawful to ship it here.

    I just tried to order an AR barrel from Cheaper Than Dirt and ran into the same BS - won't ship it to MD because it's a threaded barrel, as in the threads for the flash suppressor. Do these dorks just make stuff up randomly?

    That frustration and annoyance is your punishment for trying to order something from those sorry-assed gouging bastards.
