    except to the republic of california or wherever high capacity magazines are banned. Shipping it legally, that is. Otherwise, youre on your own and I believe it is a felony if you get caught.good luck-Smooth

    Not sure, but I think New Jersey may be another state you can not ship a hi-cap mag to.Boomer

    Whose laws are being violated by shipping to a restricted state and is the sender liable or just the receiver ?

    Maryland is another state that prohibits the shipment of hi-cap magazines. The only easy way to know which state laws apply is to read ATF's book on state laws.As to violation of the law, that's a gray area that is probably unenforceable. The same situation applies to the collection of state sales tax for mail order sales into states that have such a tax. The constitution only allows one state's laws to apply to that state and it's residents; that law has no affect within other states. As long as possession of a hi-cap mag is legal within the US, little can be done to stop the interstate shipment of them.Neal

    That's my understanding. I wonder why some shippers aid and abet those unreasonable laws.
