Somewhere in the books in Kalifornia, although I can't find it anymore, and I have yet to see it ever enforced, is an ammo limit.

Keep in mind, the law is stupid, no specifications of matching the ammo caliber to the gun, but the law is something like this (from memory).

You are allowed 5021 rounds per weapon. How did they arrive at this magical number? Here's the breakdown.

They feel that 5000 rounds is sufficient "storage" of ammo, anymore and you are trying to start a small war.

They figure most people only have/need 2 ten round magazines. so that's the 20 part.

And then, 1 in the chamber.

5000 + 20 + 1 = 5021, per weapon.

Stupid laws. I think I have a few thousand rounds, more rounds of rifle stuff than pistol by far..

Honestly I only keep 300 rounds at home. I don't feel it is so important to keep as much as that. If I need more, gun store are just nearby to purchase boxes of ammo when required.
 
It has been too long since I posted, but I hope that I'm back! It's great to see so many of you still here and so many new handles. Great to be among kindred spirits.

Now, to the business at hand:::
You stuff the ammo in there until the dang oven is full, then clean out the 'frig - except for the Blue Bell ice cream.

Any questions?
 
ammo

When I heard that they were considering a limit of 1000 round of ammo or you had to get an arsenel licence I was conserned, then I realized that I had that many rounds rolling around in the back of my Bronco. I reload for all of my firearms and cast bullets for most of them. I have a lot reloaded and the makings for thousands more.:D :D
 
I usually misplace my .22 bricks so I buy a new one and then find the old one. I'd guess I have 5k around the house.
