Federally, yes. I think federal law now says that long guns are fair game anywhere as long as the sale is legal in the buyer's home state and the state the sale takes place in. For example, OH law restricts long gun sales to within Ohio or a contiguous state. A Texas resident cannot legally buy a long gun in Ohio, nor can an Ohio resident legally buy a long gun in Texas.
