Legal to sell a 30 round AK47 on gunbroker?

[VTHokie7]

I have five 30 round AK-47 magazines and no AK. Based on the current climate and prices don't foresee myself buying one anytime soon. So looking to sell them, is it legal to list/sell them on Gunbroker (of course not selling to a state that bans 30 round mags)?

Thank you in advance!

You can not ship it from Maryland. You shouldn't offer it for sale living in Maryland. You will have to do a face to face transfer over the state line.

I think it's a little trickier than that.

This is the gray area of interstate commerce. If you post something for a sale on a website outside of Maryland, it's Maryland can not really regulate that. Ditto for shipping it out of the state. Hell, the only reason you can't ship a magazine into the state is because there's a prohibition on receiving (which is an intrastate activity). SCOTUS rulings have been pretty consistent in this area, too.

I would be interested in buying a few of those if you were willing to meet out of state.

Take it it apart and sell it as a repair kit.

How about listing for sale (obviously it would show md as origination state) then if sold driving to pa to ship?

How much are you wanting for them?

I believe they are legal to possess but illegal to buy or sell in Maryland.

I was recently wondering this same thing - I have three 25 round Uzi magazines. Dad had an Uzi that he'd procured through the Police department of my hometown when he was Chief of police there, and I picked those up prior to the estate sale. As it turned out the gun legally belonged to the city police department - Dad was just making sure it was kept in good working order.

In any case, I've got these three Uzi mags that are legal for me to own, but that I don't need, and are illegal for me to sell, at least here inside of State lines anyway.

The way I read it is that you can't offer 20+ rnd mags for sale in MD. And now is not the time to attempt to play keyboard lawyer. I think there's a gun show in Chantilly this weekend, head down there are sell your wares.

How does this apply to a business based in Maryland? Keepshooting.com is based in Maryland (waldorf I think) and they sell mags over 20 rounds.

Because they have an 01 FFL perhaps?
