Without a dealer's liscense, owning more than a 1000 rounds of one type of ammunition is considered owning an arsenal, which is apparantly illegal. At least in NY anyways.

That sucks for New Yorkers. I like to keep at least 500 rounds each for most of my calibers. The only exception being .357 magnum, too costly.

I just bought a RIA 1911 in .38 Super, it comes with 900 rounds of FMJ and 250 HP. The ammo and 8 spare mags alone is worth the $650 I paid for everthing.

We used to buy 5x that much in one go, just for the AR's
