But the real point is that ammo has to be registered. Amazing. I found an old, live cartridge in the desert last weekend, tossed it in the car. What if I lived near DC instead of SoCal?
Actually, ammunition is not registered as such, but in DC you are only allowed to possess ammunition suitable for one of your DC-registered firearms. This applies even to spent cartridge cases. If this guy didn't own a DC-registered shotgun of the same gauge as the shell found, then he's in violation. The car had California plates, so it seems plausible that he was a non-resident. Peter Trei
