Why can't you guys stop eating our own?
I suppose it's a lot easier to bitch and harp about gun owners you don't care for, than it is to actually fight to retain a God given right.
Some of you guys act exactly like Fudds.

This is probably one the most anti-second amendment gun forum on the Internet.

Spot on.

Should I go ahead and pull the lever on 3+ cases of this stuff? What is the likelihood this gets taken away?

No chance of that... at least right now.... I mean... nobody is rounding up that 76n, whatever, queer round.

#1. I agree with Poly. Blaming gun owners does absolutely nothing to help the cause. We know the law is dumb and the effort it takes to play the blame game is much better spent on fighting the law makers that are responsible for enacting such stupidity. After all, I can't think of a firearm that fits the bill of "sporting purpose" more than an AR pistol as most here consider it a "toy" used for tipping tin cans or punching paper. The irony here is ridiculous.

#2. There's so much better ammo out there, for my purposes at least, that this issue hardly causes as much of a ripple in my shooting habits.
In case you're into the mil spec ammo, M193 is still available. Ever see the damage that does on steel targets?

The BATmen: a "solution," in search of a problem, since 1933...

M855 is pretty useless... but it's still the ATF out of control under the Kenyan Shit stain.

I agree, but that's covered under my #1 post.

I agree with this.

This goes to Ryno as well.

I have shot steel with M855 and M193 side by side and the M855 did serious damage whereas the M193 barely left a mark.

Or just blame ATF for being the retarded, bloated, and useless entity that they are... But I digress.

This is 100% Obama & just a small party of the grand finale assault on Liberty & freedom we are witnessing. We have almost a full 2 more years of this executive fiat bullshit, brace yourself as you haven't seen anything yet.
