Why are you worried about restricting what law abiding But the main point is that many people do not have guns for the reasons often suggested (defense and such) - they have them for full scale, drawn out combat. You claim different, legitimate uses. Fine. So what's the line? There are people (many people) with hundreds of guns and thousands if not tens of thousands rounds of ammo. If you're buying a gunfor defense of home and body then do you really need more ammo than the gun can hold at one time? What defensive emergecy would require more than one clip? If you're sportsman then why maintain ammo in the house at all? Leave the guns empty until you go out and then buy what you need on the way. Hunting (well, it does depend on what you're huting), for example (unless you're a drunk hunter) generally requires very little ammunition. > citizens can own. I don't do any harm with my guns.

Since there's evidence that shows many (perhaps even most) illegal guns on the street are stolen from private residences... Well, I think that you can see where I'm going...
