LAWL. Gunpowder is even easier to make than bullets.
They have only been doing it for 1200 years.
You ever make any? It's easy to make a slow-burning gunpowder that fouls everything it touches. You can make firecrackers out of it, and it will shoot in a muzzleloader, but you may not get a quick enough burn rate to make gas-operated firearms usable, and it's for certain with 18 and 20 inch barrels you won't capture a whole lot of the potential.
Remember when they explained that once the bullets have been fired from the high capacity magazines that are out there, they'll be used up and eventually there won't be any left?
These people are voted in to create laws! You can't make this stuff up!
Maybe we should ship all the gun grabbers to some island like Guam and hope it capsizes!
Sure is, unless you also tightly restrict sales of gunpowder and outlaw the possession of live primers. That would put a crimp in things.

Fulminate of mercury will work for primers.
Fail.
sorry cuebald, you fail on that one.

Other than that...
have you ever opened up a chemistry book? there are a lot of chemical combinations that can be used to make smokeless gunpowder. black powder is simple to make, smokeless powder is only a little harder.
They already have in California. Well not really but now you have to have a background check and get a card that costs $50 a year to buy ammo. No more internet purchases you have to buy from a approved dealer only. And there is a limit to how much you can buy.

Look how well that's working out for the liberal utopia Kalifornia!

I see what ya did there. Crimp
We can reuse primers and it's easy to make powder.
