...no, it isn't. The weirdness comes from in-state dealers having to treat BP guns as firearms with 4473s and everything. Neither out of state retailers nor in-state FFLs want to bother with all that.

I have modern guns and went through the process for them. I'm not going to burn a pistol permit on something everyone else can buy in the mail, even if I could find someone willing to do it.

I can buy these in plastic containers like it's a new computer component.

Okay, I’m going to need to look half that up.

Can’t I just buy a tax stamp or something convenient like that?
