"People tend to miss the most obvious ( and most dangerous ) way to institute gun control That is to restrict the sale and manufacture of bullets . Without bullets , your gun is nothing but a paper weight . Bullets are also much more difficult to produce than guns . While they can be reloaded , casings are incredibly difficult to make on a small scale . The only way to really do it is to turn them down one at a time on a lathe . Dogs CAN be used to sniff out gunpowder and primers . This is a danger I think people miss when they start bannign certain types of ammunition . Right now , `` cop killer `` ammo is outlawed in the united states . Gun advocates laughed our butts off when they did this , since the `` cop killer `` amunition as they described it does not exist ouside of hollywood ( NO , coating a bullet with teflon will not enable it to pierce body armor , it will lubricate your barrel when you shoot it , though ) . I personally don ; t think this is anything to laugh about . BAnning guns is a stupid and unworkable plan , banning ammo could actually be dangerous ."
"Ahh ... There you have it . Restrict ammo , not guns . Would be a far more succesful way of enforcing gun-control ."
