No fake guns to Kansas?

Not that a I wanted a fake revolver anyway, but it kinda fries me that I can't, if I wanted to. I never saw Kansas on a "can't ship to" list before, for such things. What a load of crap.

    That's total BS. All they have accomplished is limit their customer base.

    They won't ship to NY, either, and that thing's perfectly legal here.

    Go back to 1859,when you'll started the whole Civil War, because you were against slavery, and Missouri was pro-slavery. So every time a new shipment came in, we had to stamp:"NO SHIPMENTS TO KANSAS".

    The forerunner to Gun Broker was "Slave Broker"; there were more poofs back then because you all have no sense of humor.


    News flash: I'm still against slavery![:D] Don't think that has anything to do with fake guns, though!

    they probably just decided not to ship to the state because some city decided to limit sales of replica firearms...CYA move

    hmm, did any rich Johnson County kid get shot by a cop after they had an Airsoft fight with ultra-realistic Airsoft guns recently?
    Seems like the kind of thing that would get replica guns banned in the KC burbs

    Thing is, I can buy a real percussion through the mail, just proof of age. Why will Cabelas ship me a firing percussion revolver, but I can't buy a fake one?

    Dan't make much sense to me, but a lot of things don't.

    I don't know, but I imagine Kansas has some kind of law that says non-firing guns have to have that red tip on them. That's the only thing that makes any sense at all.
