In general, anywhere in the U.S. you can only legally purchase a handgun within your home state. It is possible to purchase a handgun out of state, but you have to have it shipped from the other state to a dealer located in your state, which, many times, by the time you pay the shipping and FFL transfer fees, it winds up being more expensive that if you just bought it locally. The handgun can be shipped from the other state by a dealer, or, contrary to popular belief, by an individual, however, many dealers will not accept shipments from individuals.
