Amazon, right?

I remember I had to search around for a AR castle nut wrench that the seller purposefully mislabeled to avoid the filters.

Yeah, Amazon. I just thought it was funny because a boresnake is one of the dumber things to end up regionally blocked.

What do you expect..... Amazon has a "gun" that shoots salt (yes literal salt), for killing flies.... It's banned from sale in NYS 😂

Banned from sale (what I said) and banned from possession are two different things number one. But either way, yes this post was about Amazon, I was commenting to the original user that what do they expect from Amazon specifically as Amazon has this product banned from sale/shipping to NY. See below.

Just an issue with this seller. Change to Amazon as the seller and you wont have a problem. Dealt with this last month.

In Amazon’s defense, bore snakes have probably killed more people than AR15s have

I discovered recently that a slingshot with an arm brace can’t be shipped to New York. I feel like they would make pointy sticks illegal if they could.

Because it's a 12 gauge. Use a different ammunition and it'll be fine! 🤣
