This shit is on republicans

Jim Sciutto @jimsciutto 22m
New: Texas man arrested outside VP Kamala Harris' official residence at the US Naval Observatory Wednesday was in possession of an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle, 113 rounds of unregistered ammunition, and five 30 round magazines, according to DC police report.




...look at the danger their supporters are, look how they've been openly encouraged by actual national legislators. Just before the election, Marjorie Traitor Greene said that if Democrats won, it would destroy "freedom... which can only be won back with the price of blood.”

Do you “unregister” the rounds you use when you go to the range? How about hand loading components? Is each primer, shell casing and bullet registered separately? How about the powder? By the pound? By the grain? What happens when the rounds are loaded?

I know DC has strict gun laws but logistically how does that work. I have 50 5.56 FMJ that I use at the range, do you have to register the next box? Or is it approval to be in possession of them?

Either way...send this asshole to the federal pen as soon as possible.

from an attorney:

When a person has a firearm registered in DC, they are only permitted to be in possession of ammunition for guns in DC that correspond to the firearm that they own. When someone does not have a valid registration for their firearm, any ammunition they are in possession of is considered illegal.

However, if the firearm someone possesses is registered in Washington, DC, that person is permitted to have ammunition for that firearm. They can only have ammunition that corresponds to that specific firearm. As an example, a person cannot have ammunition that corresponds to an AIR-15 when the only firearm they have registered in Washington, DC is a shotgun.

Are Legally-Certified Holders of Firearms Allowed to Possess Ammunition?

A person who is a legally-registered firearm owner must still comply with DC rules on the kind of ammunition for guns in DC, they can possess. An individual is only able to be in possession of ammunition that corresponds to the firearm they have registered. That does not mean they can carry that ammunition outside of their home or place of business unless they have a license to do so. If they have a registration to keep their firearm in their home or place of business, their ammunition must also be kept in their home or place of business.

I traded a .22 magnum revolver years ago. I still have a box of ammunition for it, though.
