Firearms, Ammunition, Replicas, and Militaria Policy



You may not use PayPal to sell any firearm manufactured after 1898. Certain related items and high-capacity ammunition magazines are also prohibited, as described in more detail below. In

addition, it is the responsibility of users to abide by all applicable laws when dealing with the sale of permitted antique firearms, ammunition, replicas, militaria and other associated items.



What is not permitted?



Firearms

You may not use PayPal to sell or advertise any firearms produced after 1898. This includes all "pre-ban," sporting, collectible, and curio and relic (C&R) firearms, regardless of their present

capability to fire a shot.



Related items

In addition, you may not use PayPal to sell or advertise kits (that can be used to create a firearm) or illegal firearm components such as silencers, converters (which converts a firearm to automatic

capability), and short barrels.



Ammunition

You may not use PayPal to sell or advertise high capacity magazines (magazines that can hold more than 10 rounds). In addition, sellers of other ammunition with propellant (such as gunpowder)

are responsible for abiding by all laws and postal regulations.



Ordnance

In general, you may not use of PayPal in conjunction with the sale of ordnance (military weaponry, ammunition, and related parts) unless you can provide official documentation from the U. S.

Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) stating that the item is unserviceable or demilitarized. Contact your local ATF office for more details on obtaining such documentation. You can

also visit the ATF website for general information about firearms laws.



Grenades

You may not use PayPal to sell grenades, including metal military practice grenades, rifle grenades, dummy grenades, grenade launcher attachments, and mines. However, such items will be

permitted if they are a relic, curio, memorabilia, or display item that is filled with a permanent inert substance or that is otherwise permanently altered in a manner that prevents ready modification

for use as a grenade.



Replicas without proper markings

You may use PayPal to sell firearm replicas, look-alikes and imitations as long as they comply with Federal and state laws that require such items to have clear markings permanently affixed to the

weapon. The most common requirement is a blaze orange plug inserted in the barrel of the item. This law applies even to novelty items, such as cigarette lighters, that are designed to look like

firearms.



What is permitted?



You may use PayPal to sell antique firearms (before 189 and most legal firearm components. This includes firearm related accessories, such as holsters, scopes, and ammunition without

propellant.



Blank guns, replica or imitation guns, paintball guns, and "airsoft" guns may be listed provided that:

The item does not, and cannot be readily altered to, shoot a lethal projectile



The receiver is not a firearm as classified by law. See U. S. Code Title 18, Section 921



The replica or imitation gun has the legal markings required by law AND blank ammunition is not included in the sale. See U. S. Code Title 15, Section 5001

Even if the above conditions are met, PayPal does not permit the advertisement or sale of antique firearms or legal firearm components products on websites listed in PayPal Shops

Four boxes protect our freedom: the soap box,

the ballot box, the jury box, and the ammo box.
 
You can't SELL guns with PayPal. You can still buy ANYTHING with it. It is too bad when a company puts emotion in place of ethical business, the restrictions are not going to bother anyone but it does send a message about the corporate politics. I don't use paypal, never have. Postal Money Order is the only way to fly, and the only way you have recourse if you get boned on a deal.
 
Too late, I just used them, 2 minutes before seeing this. But I might still use them in the future, even though I dont think they should discriminate. Now, if they were French owned Pay Pal, I might not use them.
