You should be G2G. Maine does not have any law that would stop you from buying ammo.
Maine actually has the best gun laws on the East Coast. https://www.nraila.org/gun-laws/state-gun-laws/maine/

Haven't bought ammo in ME but if they don't ask for a license and you don't act like you're from MA* then I don't see why it would matter. Worst case scenario: you try to buy, they ask for ID, and then they refuse to sell to you. Any other case you can buy.
[*How do you act like you're from MA? Dunno. Just don't say you're from MA, I guess.]

No problems the last time I did it, year or so ago.
If you are coming up RT-125, stop at COSTA ARMS in Kingston.
I'm Not saying its GOOD, just saying its there.
Funny Ive lived 2 miles away for 27 years and only went in there ONCE looking for archery stuff for the Wife.

I have some memory of having to produce my LTC at KTP to buy ammo. That was 5+ yrs ago. Maybe things have changed?
Why would someone in a state that doesn't require ID for an ammo purchase ask for an ID unless you're possibly a minor?

I was in a border town in PA once buying ammo. The clerk asked if I was from NJ, I stupidly said yes, and they asked for my FID. The person I was with said no (which was true), and was not asked to show proof. He completed the transaction.
I generally buy in DE due to no sales tax, and am never asked.
