Are there any local or state laws that prohibit the private sale of 1 to 2lbs of black powder. I used to shoot muzzle loader competitions, but haven't for a while and want to make sure I am not going to break any laws if I sell it.
Thanks |

They sell it at WalMart and Cabelas. I am not aware of any prohibition or special licensing requirements for private sales. If you are going in to it as a business, you would probably need to jump through some hoops. I am not a lawyer, nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn Express. Your mileage may vary... |

Link from Track of the Wolf website ...
Club Officers may distribute powder to members and guests.
Heads of families may distribute powder to family members and friends. You may not engage in the business of stocking and reselling black powder, unless you have a Federal Explosives License, available from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms. They require a license, simple record keeping, an approved storage box (inexpensive Type 4 indoor magazine), and annual inspections. Certain areas require commercial zoning. The way I read this, a couple pounds between friends is legal. |
