So from what I've read he wasn't arrested because of the quantity of guns and ammo, but just because he wasn't supposed to have weapons.

Makes me wonder if there are any laws on the books for how many guns and bullets one person can own and store on their property.

I do not believe there are any limits. Grenades are not legal.

I am pretty darn pro 2A to the point where I think mag caps are wrong, but even I can see value in amount of guns allowed on one premise type of law. I really don't want to see some small cult activate a group of home grown terrorists and then them all being able to instantly access weapons from one location. If you're rich enough to own like let's say more than 50 guns, your rich enough to pay for some of them to be stored off site and be swapped through if they want to play with their different toys.

I didn't know what "Pro 2A" meant so I looked it up in the US-English to UK-English dictionary

Huh, weird, it just says "Coward"

😂
