Perhaps there wasn't any neighbor that called in a complaint or any one else except for a nosy cop that could have taken it upon himself from idle conversation he had heard...........
As far as a warrant and all the big talk, what for? He came by, you let him in, he did his job, and no issues were found. So, nothing to see here people, move along. Flexing is not necessary.
Well you are still missing the pointI didn't miss any point. He rang the door bell, gave me the message, we exchanged pleasantries and he left.
He was on his personal time.
Now you are starting to get the point of why you never let a uniformed officer acting within the scope of his official duties into your home without proper and legally recognized and procured authoritymisuse of resources; which can lead to talk of misuse of authority, misuse of force and all the other stuff that has been beat to death. All occupations have nice people and bad people.

Standing up for one's rights is not "being a prick". One can do so in a polite manner, just as easily as one can do so in a rude manner....I think what you did with the LE officer was fine. Yes you can be a prick and it is your right to tell them to get lost, but with something like this it's often better to be polite (suffer the annoyance of giving your ID) and make a friend in the police officer.
he said because someone complained that it smells when i make ammo.
Remember, once you, or any other person who lives in the house, gives permission for an LEO to enter, you can not retract that permission. That LEO, as well as any and all other LEOs that he or she now calls to assist, has permission to complete the task for which they were dispatched.
It is too simplistic to label this as a cop bashing threadCompletion of thread descent into "anti-cop, pro-cop" squabling in 3,2,1...
I don't believe that's true. Now, once he spots something that can be used as "probable cause," all bets are off.Remember, once you, or any other person who lives in the house, gives permission for an LEO to enter, you can not retract that permission.
