AMMO2U not Shipping to Colorado
I visited the Ammo2U website today, as I received an email about some ammo going up for sale.
I saw this LINK on the home page
Read This Article Before OrderingCO, CT, and NY Residents Click Here
Then under the dropdown for Federal, State & Local Laws I saw this:
"We comply with ALL Local, State, and Federal laws. AS A PRIVATE COMPANY WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REFUSE BUSINESS TO ANYONE WE CHOOSE.
We will not sell the below listed items to their respective states:"
and further down...
Colorado
- We have ceased all shipments to the state of CO at this time
They are trying to make a point for all firearms and ammunition sellers/resellers to boycott states that have enacted unreasonable gun laws, such as NY, California, and (I'm sorry to say) Colorado.
I have mixed opinions on this ... I can kind of see their side, and the prohibited buyer's side.
I am disappointed, but can also respect them for trying to make a point.
To me, it appears that they are trying to incite their customers, who are residents of the "NO SHIP TO" states, to take action with the respective state government, and work towards repairing the state laws or "No Ammo for you....NEXT!
Mods: As always, please merge where appropriate if I missed a previous article, or if there is a more suitable post I missed in my search.

Re: AMMO2U not Shipping to Colorado
Just saw this myself...
We are currently not selling or shipping ammunition to the states of CO, CT, and NY because of new gun legislation in these states. If you have an issue with this new policy please talk with your state government about the new legislation.

While I agree with their decision to do this and I appreciate them directing the blame to the true source of the problem, it still sucks for us.

So, basically the opposite of Magpul's stance, which is to put Colorado gun owners first in line to get new mags.
As if Colorado gun owners don't realize the laws are bad, and they need to provide us some incentive?
I say Ef-Em.
Like we have not done this already. Sucks to be us I guess, they can do what they want.
Maybe they're trying to help the Fudds feel the burn, too? Keep ammo scarce, and Mr "I don't think anyone need assault weapons as long as I got my <X> gun" gets a wakeup call when he can't find any ammo to buy?

CO is just another blue slave state now.
Why should it be different then NJ/NY/CA etc ?
And if our state government doesn't listen to us or that little thing we used to call reason? Yeah, okay, I say we fight dirty, we fight mean, and we fight tooth and nail- get this crap overturned. And if that fails, well at least I know WY is gun friendly and not too far to come back here to visit family. Being an anti-gun democrat should constitute a felony.

"The revolution will not be televised... Instead it will be filmed from multiple angles via cell phone cameras, promptly uploaded to YouTube, Tweeted about, and then shared on Facebook, pending a Wi-Fi connection."
Perhaps that is their plan? I don't fault them for it at all.
Not sure why ammunition sellers would need to put us on priority.. no ammo has been banned. We're not more special than the rest of the country when it comes to needing ammo.
