Hey /k/, so I legally came into ownership of a ruger p85 in Minnesota. I am 18, and not yet 21. I was just wondering whether or not anyone will actually sell me 9mm ammo. From what I've read it's illegal for them to sell it to me if I tell them it's for the handgun, but as I said, I legally own the handgun...
Any clarification? I was told to just say it's for a carbine but don't know whether that's legal or works.

Legally it's ok, some places don't know or want to "risk" it. If anyone cares, as you said say it's for a carbine.
Those Ruger Ps are tanks enjoy it.
If anyone presses, say it's a Ruger P carbine it's close enough to true.

Say you're buying range food for a carbine youre wanting to try out. Then go to a range and shoot some rounds a hipoint carbine or AR in 9mm so you technically werent lying

From what I've read it's not illegal for me to buy it, it's illegal for THEM to sell me it.
Anyways I might actually try out my uncle's shitty 9mm kel tech carbine so it's not lying I guess.

ask a homeless dude in the parking lot.

In mn its illegal to sell handgun ammo to anyone under 21. Doesnt matter what you want it for. Congrats tho. You can now buy spray paint since you are 18
No big box stores will sell you the ammo so don't waste your time with them.

what's "handgun ammo"?
I have an AR pistol, does that mean OP can't buy .223?
>>35137561
Handgun ammo is any ammo you intend to use in a pistol. That's literally the definition.
>>35137592
That’s a fucking stupid law.
>>35136552
I'm 19 and the range I go to sells me ammo, not any good but its the only place I've been to that will sell me pistol ammo.
OP can you mail order ammunition? Does the law apply to retail sales? What about gun shows or armslist? Why not have a friend or family member buy it for you?
>>35137561
Mn defines handgun ammo, very loosely, as generally used in handguns. 223/556 is rifle ammo
OP literally go to the store, get both rifle and pistol ammo, and walk out.
Don't be a sperg

I tried, and it rang up as not allowing me to do so because their registers fucking ask for an age.

Literally just order it online.
just buy it online m8. if whatever site asks you to tick a box saying you're 21, do it. you're not breaking the law by lying to them.

tell em it's for your rifle, better yet, learn to reload, then you have more ammo at a lower price. Your home made ammo will shoot more to your liking
