New member here with a question about the purchase of ammunition in NH. I have owned a home in NH for over 20 years and have had a NH non-resident CCW for many years. The non-resident fee used to be a lot lower so as a courtesy I continued to renew even though both my PA and KY resident permits are honored. Now that it is $100 I will likely not renew until I take up actual residency in NH.
I have been unable to purchase any ammunition in NH. My understanding is that ammo sales are governed by Federal law with same State laws that may limit sales of certain types of ammo etc. These refusals have not been limited to the Wal-Mart and similar chains but also some independent firearm dealers (Newport NH area).
Looking for info from any NH firearm dealer as to why the refusal. I would have thought the NH non-resident CCW allowing me to carry along with my other CCW’s and ID would qualify me to purchase .38 and 9mm ammo. Is there some law that I don’t know of, or are firearm dealers making up their own rules in excess of what the BATF and State requires.
Heck I couldn’t purchase a pellet pistol for my son to plink with at any retail stores a few years ago.
