Gun Control & RKBA
In reply to the discussion: So, what's the problem with background checks and sales records for ammo buys? [View all]I use at least 1,500 rounds of 5.56 and 1,000 rounds 9mm a month.
Goin to the gun range is a family event in my family. It gives us time to all get together once a month and have a good time shooting paper targets. Because of this we all chip in to purchase ammo by the cartons. We buy 2 cartons of 5.56(1,000 rounds each) a month and 4 bricks of 9mm(500 rounds) as well.
No one in my family has ever had to use a firearm to hurt anyone and we do not ever plan to, to us its a sport in which the whole family can participate in(all the guns belong to me) and something like this would only inconvenience law abiding people.

Anyone who shouldn't have ammunition should either be in prison or a mental hospital

The same as all gun laws....it's about control. They don't like what they can't control.

I think it is a great idea. We need to keep lists on everybody about every little thing they do.
