Thats all it takes. Ebay doesnt want to track by county so they ban whole state. Amazon you cant get a red dot shipped to Cali if seller also ships night vision. Have to find another seller to get simple red dot.

eBay restrictions on California buyers - I’ve had enough!

I'm from MA. I don't know of any areas that outlaws them because they are legal in the state and you can get them when of legal age. Their usage; however, is different. Some towns ban any discharge even from airsoft. That's when you just have to join a range. I have all the legal licenses and Amazon won't ship them and that's silly, especially a 15 minute drive to New Hampshire and you can get any air stuff without any questions.

All of the above is why I live in Alabama. Sorry for those who have to live in those states who restrict peoples lives.

Marlboro has a ban on possessing air guns. Years ago teenagers were doing a lot of damage so the town banned the sale of and posse them.That is the reason New England Airguns is in Hudson the next town over . Amazon won’t ship because there are other towns with restrictions as well.

Ironically Marlborough fish and game club hosts many field target events and we’re driving our guns through that city all the time. Wouldn’t be fun to deal with cops pulling folks passing through there.

The State of California has no purchasing restrictions outside of being 18... One thing that may be a hitch is that non-firearms need a brightly colored tip or brightly colored features that distinguish them from an actual firearm. A brightly colored bit of tape/paint on the muzzle should be sufficient.
What is to stop you on ebay from not buying through ebay and going direct to the seller to ship to a legal state?

I use Craigslist to sell air rifles. The problem with ebay is fraud in which case you are on your own and the guarantees do not actually apply.
When I lived in Texas there were traffic accidents that ended as gun fights. Perfectly legal to have a loaded handgun in the glove box. Also legal to drive around with an open beer or hard liquor bottle so long as there is a passenger in the vehicle. I do not see that as being good for anyone.

Tried
Update, tried to buy it now a few days ago. Even with description not specifying pcp. Didnt work. Don't use ebay much already. Meh, back to other means.So ive had the same issue. Had family make a purchase in AZ for me off ebay, another purchase discussed outside of ebay. I cant make a ebay purchase from someone next town over. Ive tried bids, offers, counters, all flagged quickly. There may be a way, im finding if the listing Type is Not under PCP exactly, lets say just pellet, I can make a step forward. Did a lil test just now, put a counteroffer on a shortened K1 and it went thru. Yay possible progress. Pretty sure person selling, is on AGN. If youre reading this, don't deny my low counter. Anyway, if it's something I want for the right price, ill try again and post an update.

I was on my auction site and was bidding on some great deals for PCP rifles,only to be informed they do not ship to California or Canada.I checked some other auction houses and there was no problem shipping to CA. I think it is BS,BS...I going fishing instead and listing to some OZZIE,yea that is the ticket!
