I find it interesting to note from all the YouTube gun channel commentary, and well as many forum commentary on Ca new ammo laws that there hasn’t been much talk (a few instances) about simply reloading ammo. (At least I haven’t seen much)
From what I understand, no background checks are needed to by powder, brass, primers, or even the bullets, and they can be shipped in via mail order as well.
So I am surprised that their has not been an increase of sales around reloading equipment and supplies. Or has there been an increase?
Also... if you make a thousand rounds of your favorite caliber ammo, how will law enforcement know (say your pulled over in an auto stop for a broken tail light) if the ammo you have was purchased or if you reloaded it from the ammo you did buy (legally).
I keep all of my ammo that I reload and that I buy in ammo boxes. I take out purchased ammo out the the box it came in, and put it in one of those plastic ammo boxes.
So my question legally? Is how is law enforcement able to tell the difference? What’s the true legal stance for someone who reloads? Are more people in California reloading now?
What if someone who reloads were given the supplies to make ammo by a friend, he makes the ammo, and gives it back to his friend. Not charging him for labor? Or even lets the friend use his reloading equipment? What’s the legal stance of California in that instance?
All in all I hope ca looses the court case, but we shall see.
