98Z5V Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 From a military standpoint, there are exceptions to some state's gun laws, and there aren't. If some states have certain AWB laws in place, and as a military member - you get an assignment to that state. "Oh poop, what am I gonna do with my firearms?..." You can get an exemption, or exception, to take them there - personal firearms, now - but you can't use them there. You're not "against the law" to take them there, but you are against the law to take them out and use them on a civilian range in that state. NY comes to mind.Another thing with .mil. If I'm a military guy in an AWB state, there are things I can't buy online and have shipped to my residence - that state precedence and law is still in effect. Mag capacity for AR-15s is one example. I can't hop onto Brownell's and order up a bunch of 30-rd Pmags and get them shipped to me.There's nothing that says, in example, if my unit is using Pmags, and I can't get a grip of them through work, though. <thumbsup>In AWB states, there are separate rules for MIL and LEO - usually, LEO has alot more flexibility. As they should, IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
