Ammo max per household?

[XDRoX]

Not the OP's question but I'll toss this out there. CA does have restrictions on powder and primers though.

Excerpt from the California Fire Code:

3306.4.1 Black powder and smokeless propellants. Propellants for personal use in quantities not exceeding 20 pounds (9 kg) of black powder or 20 pounds (9 kg) of smokeless powder shall be stored in original containers in occupancies limited to Group R-3. Smokeless powder in quantities exceeding 20 pounds (9 kg) but not exceeding 50 pounds (23 kg) kept in a wooden box or cabinet having walls of at least 1 inch (25 mm) nominal thickness shall be allowed to be stored in occupancies limited to Group R-3. Quantities exceeding these amounts shall not be stored in any Group R occupancy.

3306.4.2 Small arms primers. No more than 10,000 small arms primers shall be stored in occupancies limited to Group R-3.

Wonder if some CA prosecutor could convince a judge that one violated this code by removing all of the powder and primers from assembled ammunition?

The powder limit is enough to feel comfortable IMO, but this 10k primer limit sucks. Most of my buddies all exceed this limit.

I hope this the correct area to post this. I haven't found anything on this yet, so I have to ask: Does anybody know the maximum number of allowable rounds of ammunition per person per household in CA? Thanks in advance!

How much weight can your floor hold?

"Don't ask, Don't tell"! Mine are broken down by LIVE rounds and RELOAD supplies. READY to use and PREPARING for use!

I probably exceed the limit....

[NoJoke]

The maximum number of rounds you can have in your house is determined by two factors.

1. The size of your house.
2. The stregnth of your foundation.

2. I have a slab foundation. What's the limit for slab?

[mif_slim]

About 1 round per customer per household.

Depends on the underlying soil.

If you live on a boat, you are limited by when the boat starts taking on water...

[Federalist]

I heard a while back that some guy reached the max legal limit of rounds stored in his house until he lost most of them in . . . "a tragic boating accident".

Sorry, I just had to.

Cash flow or credit card limit are the only limiting factor, or your space.

Is this primer restriction for real? 10 thou ain't much. Sizewise, primers are the easiest to store and accumulate

Walmart doesn't limit ammo purchases any more. They had a 6 box limit during the ammo scare (08-early'10) but lifted it sometime last year.
