Well, that does make an interesting question of the situation in that was this plant making 5.56 or .223?
With those implications that those who understand know.
Did it mention ammo at ALL? I don't recall that clause.
It is there in the second amendment. The right to bear arms.....for guns without ammo are not arms. USSC said that already. It might be there down in the writing of Heller where they were saying that requiring guns to be unloaded did indeed constitute an infringement.
Various politicians have tried that argument before, "The Constitution never said anything about bullets!".....but if it were possible for them to pull that trick, don't you think they would have done it already?
I answered your question. Article 5 and the 9th & 10th Amendments handle everything that were not and could not be accounted for when they wrote/ratified the Constitution.
Article 5 allows for amending and describes how.
9th Amendment says just because you don't see a right listed doesn't mean the people don't possess it or should be denied it.
10th Amendment says if it isn't an enumerated power specifically mentioned, then the federal government doesn't hold the power over it, the States and People do.
Thus, the 9th Amendment covers the property rights not specifically mentioned. Just because you don't see property rights mentioned doesn't mean the People don't have property rights.
Thus, the 10th Amendment covers the property rights not specifically enumerated as a power of the federal government. Since it isn't specifically enumerated, the States and the People retain power over it.
Thus, if you think the federal government should have enumerated power over self-contained ammo, you can amend the Constitution to give them that power, so says Article 5.
The Constitution completely and properly answers your question, as well as all questions on all "infinite number of present/future things Madison et al could not possibly list in a single document."
Only a total idiot would think that after approving the 2nd amendment, The RIGHT to keep and bear ARMS", does NOT include having the ammo to use those arms!
"That the people have a right to keep and bear arms; that a well-regulated militia, including the body of the people capable of bearing arms, is the proper, natural, and safe defence of a free state."
How can you "defend" using a gun WITHOUT the ammo?
You would not last too long in a firefight without it!
People at that time owned canons and neither the gun NOR the AMMO were banned.
Private citizens owned WARSHIPS armed with MANY cannons and NONE banned.
Sometimes it feel like we are dealing with 3 year olds on here!
