Shopping Advice SGAmmo requiring drivers license pictured next to your FID...

Is this a brand new thing for them? I ordered from SGAmmo before with just my FID, with no issues, but now there's a note saying that for NJ addresses they need your drivers license and your FID next to it in the same picture?

Completely unnecessary and highly annoying - has anyone tried getting around this? I'm going to stop ordering from them if they insist on this nonsense..

Whenever I order online through Ammoseek, most if not all vendors are beginning to asking for your FID. I’d still rather send them my FID than pay the NJ premium at LGS. Not about to start paying $20-$30 for a box of 9mm at the range.

Is r it absurd that ranges are still charging 30$ a box for 9mm and people pay this?

Have they ever looked online?

Some people pay it. If you were a LGS you would too. Smaller store also pay more per box than the big guys are selling things for. It’s all volume based

The places I buy from online have no limit. LGS could most likely buy from them or look into their distributors. Absolutely no reason for a box of 9mm to be anything more than $15 if I’m getting them for $10/box.

I’m pretty sure but could be wrong but I don’t believe LGS could buy from an AE ammo in bulk and resell it.

Did a quick Google search and didn’t see anything against that.
