That is a very strange loophole.

It's not just a loophole...it's reality.
Even if the govt. passed yet another law...how in the hell are they going to stop a person from making a gun at home?
Answer: They can't.
Which is why banning guns would never work.
First off, criminals already don't obey the gun laws. And they certainly aren't going to suddenly start obeying the law if the idiots in Washington D.C. pass another one.
They will simply make their own guns.
Then I suppose that the feds could make ammunition illegal. But that will just lead to people making their own ammo too.
The Chinese figured out gunpowder centuries ago. If they could make guns and ammo way back then...it's a simple matter for people to do it today.
Trying to pretend that we can go back in time by passing laws is a futile exercise.
