Why is this a crime and why a felony?

Isn't it a violation of export laws?

Is it considered exporting it you are both, the shipper and receiver? The article doesn't mention of anyone actually receiving the ammunition. It does mention that the woman purchased the ammo and was going home with it.

I dunno, not familiar with the law... just seems wierd.

You missed the point of the question. Perhaps a better way would be to ask it this way.

"Why is exporting ammunition against the law?"
