Good luck with reloading finding powder, and primers is a killer right now guys are buying by the ton getting ready I guess to take on the 3 headed what ever monster.


Forget Wal-Mart anyway they will swing with the O.

Most guys are buying assault type weapons and ammo and that might be a mistake.


You will not be able to overcome superior forces even with that so you might want to think about a good 22 rifle and some shotgun ammo to feed your family with while hiding out on the river......


Sounds sort of scary doesn't it but it could be a lot closer than you think...

Follow the money. There have been no new laws that I am aware of and Obama even came out and said a month ago that he wouldn't ban assult type rifles. Lots of scare talk though and every one is trying to buy extra ammo. So again I say follow the money. Ammo manufacturers are faced with a huge increase in demand, they increase the price instead of the supply, and presto no increased investment and a higher return. my .02 Mel

do you mean this list found at http://www.gunlaws.com/GunLawUpdate3.htm

Gun-ban list proposed

Slipping below the radar (or under the short-term memory cap), the Democrats have already leaked a gun-ban list, even under the Bush administration when they knew full well it had no chance of passage (HR 1022, 110th Congress). It serves as a framework for the new list the Bradys plan to introduce shortly.

I have an outline of the Brady’s current plans and targets of opportunity, I’m working on getting that news out asap after these ban lists, probably be ready in the next few days. It’s horrific. They’re going after the courts, regulatory agencies, firearms dealers and statutes in an all out effort to restrict we the people. They’ve made little mention of criminals.

Now more than ever, attention to the entire Bill of Rights is critical. Gun bans will impact our freedoms under search and seizure, due process, confiscated property, states rights, free speech, right to assemble and more, in addition to the Second Amendment. See what 250 of your peers thought during our recent Bill of Rights Day event at the Wrigley Mansion in Phoenix: http://www.gunlaws.com/BOR-Day-2008-Report.htm
