I’m not saying they’re not going to grab guns, but if he can go after ammo right now through EO or regulation, then why would he churn up a big second amendment fight? Once the ammo’s restricted, it will be much easier to go after the guns. Here’s the angle BO will use, I have no doubt...and this will be his argument: there is no literal right to ammo, only arms. No matter that it violates not only the SA itself, but the spirit as well. Anyone who can interpret the SA as meaning a “well regulated militia” as the National Guard can certainly rationalize that ammo isn’t covered under the SA.

The angle he will use is 500% tax increase on ammo.
