Ammunition Accountability Act

[tombogan03884]

The problem isn't so much that they propose a serialization of ammution...it's who will be affected by it. I guarrantee you that law enforcement and military will get regular production ammunition, while civilians have to buy ammo from a separate assembly line or plant, paying all of the overhead costs for the new lines.

There's no way to fight crime and terrorism with the inherent costs of serialization, both in the machinery and in the lower production rates. Even Obama knows (or will find out from an advisor) that this technology would criple our military and law enforcement production. Therefore, there will be two assembly lines for the same product.

I would honestly like nothing more than for the ammunition and firearms companies to protest this legislation and any other unconstitutional legislation in the same way Ronnie Barrett protested the CA .50 ban-- cut off the government from the product until they restore the rights of the people.

I don't really know how I feel about cutting off production for the military, since they're pretty busy fighting a war. But the police departments that are going to run out of ammo should barrow ammo from other police departments that don't need it as badly, while demanding the right of the people to own guns and ammo be restored.

The ammo companies ARE fighting it BECAUSE of the expense of retooling .

IMO, cutting them off is the only way to go.   What ticks me off is federal agencys don't have to fallow federal laws( same with state agencys and state laws)  When I was working for the dept of architecture we were using coatings that had been illegal for decades.  We also could apply products to surfaces that were illegal and with methods that were illegal.  If I did half the stuff we were TOLD   use/ do, I would be shut down instantly have all my lic pulled, prohibited from ever getting them again and fined in the 6 diget range.

What ticked off barret so much was the fact that the LAPD SWAT used his guns to show " how deadly" the 50 bmg round can be.

Its BS too expensive and will,never happen, especially with the number of loaders out there.

2How,

Don't discount it too easily.  Many times before people have said that something will never happen and been screwed.  The cost of production and who reloads what means nothing to those buying into this guy's business plan.  Its promoters will keep pushing it until they get what they want, or we convince them we will not back down.

Remember prohibition?  It may have been repealed, but look at what it did to the industry.

real easy to stop that... stop selling primers or have those marked as well.

i really wish I was the guy that came up with the erosion control straw rolls... that guy has to be rolling a doe.

That would be rolling in dough. "Dough" as in a euphemism for money, loot, moolah, etc.

Rolling a doe is just plain nuts. Everyone knows they never carry any money, and besides, it really annoys the doe!

Depending on the season, it tends to piss off the buck, too.

Don't forget that after this craps outs, the anti freedom groups will move to the ammo stamping from the gun itself.  Then we'll all be filing our stampers off our new weapons.

Nah...I'll start committing my crimes with revolvers, no case ejections.

Will never happen? Wonder if the earlier American citizens thought that you would have to fill out a form to buy a gun, or have a background check, or a waiting period. As, opposed to simply walking in and being able to buy one just like anything else.. no big deal. With new technology and forensics.. you really think it would never happen? Guess what.. loaders can and will be affected by future events to. Make no mistake about it .. it certainly can happen.

Going to keep replying, not to blast your view 2HOW, in order to remind everyone ...

The NRA ran ads for several years where people were shown saying "We didn't think it would ever happen."  These were citizens of countries all over the world where guns were not only banned but confiscated.

Nothing is out of the realm of possible ... especially if we bury our heads in whatever we are knee deep in.
