I actually wouldn't mind having to flash a permit or hunting license when purchasing ammo. That proves you're not a felon. Both are revoked upon felony arrest. As easy and painless as showing ID at a package store. That is one step that could actually have an impact on gun violence. If ammo was harder to come by for them gang-bangers may actually reconsider before shooting at each other.
I know, I know, the ones without records yet will simply do the buying and sell it to the others. I'm just saying, this gun control attack is unbelievably huge, this is one I wouldn't fight.
And people who are under 21 or who don't have a pistol permit (dont need one for rifle or shotgun, probably 3/4 the gunowners in the state dont have a pistol permit) will never be able to buy ammo again?
It's a slippery slope. If you are OK with needing a permit to buy ammo, you should be ok with registering that ammo, no? Already gave the the permit, what's the big deal?
Ya know, we're gonna lose ALL of this, because gun owners don't stick together. The pistol guys don't care if suddenly shotguns and rifles need to be registered, or you need a permit for ammo, because they already have the permit. The shotgun guys are going to toss the pistol and black rifle guys under the bus because they dont care about mag restrictions. They hunters will toss ya all under the bus they dont care about mag limits either, and one box of ammo lasts for years.
