    Two major issues here. One ammunition is an arm and protected by the 2A. You know that people can just cast bullets out of lead like people did for centuries before the popularization of the cartridge right?

      How effective would the casted bullets and cartridges be in general? Is it very easy to make quality ones that won’t spoil the gun itself?

      How easy would it be to scale them up? I confess, I don’t actually know much.

      Also, does implementing production quota limits amount to violating 2A? Isn’t the amendment about securing the rights of the public to own firearms, and not securing manufacturers from regulations?
