This has a 1980’s aroma, like the plastic pistol with the funny name that can pass through X-Ray machines unseen.

"That said, the ATF is actually doing a pretty fair reading of the existing law. Theyre right, AR handguns were not out there when this exemption was issued."Yes, you're exactly right. It's almost as if these stupid @$$h01e gun companies making them were just really giving them a pretext for it - which of course, begs the question about the Contender, etc. handguns which can be chambered for about any damn cartridge there is...
Those "AR handguns" are about as useful as tits on a boar hog anyway, so I hope they at least made a few bucks on them for the trouble they've enabled.

And Obama was thinking Hmmm... How about THOSE bullets? Can we ban THOSE?
Maybe this is another Obama trick to boost ammo sales to give the economy another bump.
Like he has done for the last six years to get gun sales to skyrocket.

I purchased some of these 20 hours ago and then received an email more than an hour later saying they’re back-ordered. On CTD’s website there’s now a notice saying this item is not in stock and can’t be back-ordered.

Green Tip M855 is not steel core.
To: bkopto
Those particular rounds are already quite expensive.
Those 5.56 steel core ‘penetrators’ cost a ton. This will send their market price into the stratosphere. Need to go and take a look at gunbroker and see how crazy it has gotten already.
I wonder what the chances are of the Congress undoing this as a part of some unrelated bill that is of great enough importance, the president will let it go. I doubt a stand alone bill just for this would reach a veto-proof majority. Then again, perhaps not. Depends on how the debate is framed.

I guess the value of any already out in the hands of individuals has just gone up.

Ruby targeted the upper inner thigh ... Femoral artery, difficult to control as a bleeder, severed end may retract into the torso, and blood loss will do the rest within a couple of minutes.
