"Finally, does anyone not believe this was intended to re-supply drug cartel muscle? Please."

Drug cartel goons would be laughed out of town were they seen sporting .22 pistols. Last time I was in mexico, I saw that local law enforcement was carrying HK-91 battle rifles. Shooting a .22 at one of those guys would be like bringing a knife to a gunfight. Neither .22 or 38 super is the weapon of choice in such circles. Not even close.

PS - I have bought more ammo than that. Don't even know what a FOID card is.

Two words: Assassination squads. Do you have any idea how many people are assassinated in cities like Neuvo Laredo and Ciudad Juarez every year by the drug gangs? Among assassins, the .22 is a favored round because it is quite lethal at point blank range, and it's easy to silence to keep from attracting attention. Since most of the murdered are killed at a range of less than three feet, they don't NEED powerful rounds for that sort of work.

part of the papers you have to have for the goose stepping goons in the blue states (Halt show papers!) We don't have that foolishness in the south.

Nowhere in this article does this state that it was .22 cal. pistol or for that matter .22 cal rimfire LR ammunition. I thought it may be the .22 cal NATO round assault rifle ammo. .38 cal. pistol ammo is what it is.

Is there no identification necessary to purchase ammo in WV? Illinois has a FOID...Firearm Owners Identification card. Purchase of ammo without it is illegal, as is selling to someone without it.
