| 59. A hundred dollars a bullet is a bit steep and probably not necessary. |

Five or ten dollars would probably be enough to do the job.
I'm sure how to identify the bullets for the deposit could be worked out. A hologram, special dye in the casing, or something else could do the trick. Someone with more knowledge than me could figure it out.
it's just a thought to be kicked around, could be set up to satisfy most people. The person that thinks they need a thousand rounds in the compound at all times, they may not be happy. Another downside would be probably be having to go to a firing range for target practice; buy the bullets on the inside, and return all the casings or unused bullets before you leave, no deposits. I suspect most shooters in urban areas already do most of their shooting at a firing range, where I live most can just go out back of the house.
There are just way too many bullets laying around. People don't need boxes and boxes of shells for hunting or home defense. If you do need a hundred rounds for home defense, you should think about moving.
Again this is not my idea, I would give credit if I knew who to give it to. I just agree that it could be made workable and be of some help in stopping many of these shootings.
