Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

But not ammunition

Allow me to be sceptical about that. How does one explain that 10% of French murders, and 75% of Swiss murders, are by firearm?

Italy also has a high rate of murder by gun (66%), (source), which my prejudice leads me to ascribe to organised crime and illegal weapons. Perhaps it is the same in Switzerland?

There's nothing to stop you buying your own ammunition. But you can't keep state-issued ammunition at home. Or you could just buy it in Austria - In Liechtenstein last year 100% of the murders were by firearm, and the murderer got his weapon in Austria after having been banned from owning one.
