(b) In all cases that involve only one invited shooter, the procedure shall be the same as the above. In all cases it shall be necessary to include with the documents provided, the date of arrival to the Island, the place of lodging, and the day of his/her departure.
(c) As an exception to the Weapons Act, in any of the above cases in which the person arrives in Puerto Rico without ammunition, he/she may purchase those needed according to the calibers he/she has indicated in his/her application for a permit, indicating the number of the provisional permit granted by the Superintendent. The armory shall proceed with the sale, leaving a record thereof and notify the Puerto Rico Police in the same manner and through the same means that have been established by this chapter for such purposes.
