I honestly do not have a solution; that’s why I asked the question. Limiting ammunition sales significantly would help, that’s only part of it though.
There’s a second amendment to allow the right to bear arms, but I missed the part in the second amendment that makes any mention of a right to purchase ammo.
Ban the sale of all forms of gunpowder that can be used to remanufacture used rounds.
As far as solving the problem of getting semi automatic rifles out of the hands of people that should not have them goes, there’s only one method to do it, but busting into peoples’ homes and taking their stuff when they aren’t around isn’t likely to have 100% fantastic results either.
Fair enough.
I agree with your comment that at some point there’s going to be a shootout with SWAT if this happened, regardless of approach.
Financial disincentives perhaps? Make it prohibitively expensive to buy ammunition?
I don’t think that the tax going on to pay for mental health services would act to disincentivize or dissuade from the purchase of ammo; it would be quite useful though. Maybe that’s better.

Maybe tax the shit out of ammo and make the tax 100% fund hormone replacement therapy; or just something else nice to do for trans-folks…
Maybe more appropriately, towards mental health services. And the circle is complete.
