That could be addressed by allowing non-lethal rubber bullets. You have a right to bear arms but not to introduce something into another's body. That's pretty well established. I can't give you dirty food, drugs, or water.
It's also hard for me to go Deer or Bird hunting with rubber bullets. Or to stop the rapist who's about to rape my daughter.
Please provide the case law supporting the assertion that ammunition is considered arms. That's all I'm asking.
In 2008, the U.S. Supreme Court held in District of Columbia v. Heller that the Second Amendment prohibits the Federal government from passing laws prohibiting an individual's right to possess a hand gun in the home and requiring any firearms in the home to be inoperable during possession.
Federal law imposes several restrictions on the transfer and possession of firearm ammunition. The law prohibits the possession of ammunition by convicted felons, controlled substance users, and anyone subject to a domestic violence restraining order, among others, and it prohibits transferring ammunition to such persons as well. It prohibits the sale or transfer of (1) long gun ammunition to anyone under age 18 and (2) handgun ammunition to anyone under age 21. It also strictly regulates armor-piercing handgun bullets.
Right, it may be justified but not legal to have the means to do that. I might be justified to use a lethal drug to do that but that doesn't mean i have the right to buy that lethal drug.
It's completely justified and LEGAL to shoot someone in self defense of your own life, at least in common sense states it still is.

Explain to me why it is not legal to own ammunition.
It's legal. I'm asking what would keep the feds from regulating it like anything else that trades in interstate commerce.
The Second Amendment.
