Trying to order a toy rifle for a co-worker's son for Christmas. I have tried Amazon and two different sellers on ebay. Both sellers on ebay messaged me later saying it couldn't be shipped though the description says shipping to lower 48.
How fucking sad this state and country has become.

Seller saw NY, figured kid would play with it outside, some cop shoots kid thinking it's real, kids parent sues cop, OP and seller for selling/giving the kid the rifle.
You should be thanking that seller op. He may have saved your life

is there some bullshit law that makes it so he can't legally ship it? Or is the seller just worried that he'll get in trouble?

bullshit either way

It's probably for his own good anyway.  Playing with toy guns will just turn him into a violent mass-murdering psychopath.

NJ is usually the same way at least with airsoft and shit. But they will let me order the toy gun in the OP.

OP said NYS, not NYC...



But I digress...



Why not just get him a pellet rifle?  Woot will ship them to NYS...

Came to post this.

That's what I just did for my kid's birthday. When he opened the package, he asked if it was airsoft. Nope, its the real thing! The smile on his face was awesome.
