I see absolutely no problem with regulating ammo sales. A firearm is really just a "weapon system." It requires more than one component to operate. Concerns about regulation of ammo sales are no different than for any other gun regulation, and tend to be driven by the same paranoia. In many ways regulation of ammo sales is better because ammunition is a fungible, expendible, and perishable item. It moves through the market faster and wider than guns themselves. Bullets are produced by the billions, rather than millions.


A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.

Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich
