No reason you shouldn’t be able to buy a gun out of state, especially with background checks being completed instantaneously over the phone.

And should be called “out-of-state purchase” not interstate.

Also, are your 2nd Amendment right restricted when you cross state lines?


This case pertains to:


“The thin majority agreed that the longtime ban on selling handguns over the counter to out-of-state residents is in the public interest. The minority vehemently disagreed with the concept, which predated today’s modern instant criminal background check process, holding it was against the Second Amendment and was confusing when compared to the ability to sell rifles and shotguns without such prohibitions.”

Interstate handgun purchase ban divides federal court

A decision not to grant a retrial in a challenge to the federal law barring handgun sales to out-of-state residents sparked intense debate in one of the nation’s federal appeals courts last week.
