Gun Control Ping
Don’t expect the RINOs or even the Tea Party in Congress to do a single thing about bringing Traitorobama and his EPA thugs of evil to justice. They have joined in benign complicity.
Watermelons, green on the outside, commie red on the inside.
Of all the firearms manufacturing processes, casting bullets is one of the easier ones. There will always be lead or some suitable substitute available one way or another.
I guess we’ll just have to go to the environmental friendly Teflon coated ammo...lol
Yup. Destroy RKBA by wrecking the supply chain.
Looks like it will cost more, but people are not stopped from buying. And since this is such a key thing to a majority of the US population, they will continue buying, no matter what.

Two months ago I blogged that the Norwegian Army suspected that the ammunition used in their new H&K 416 rifles were making soldiers sicks. Chief of Staff Brig. General Rune Jakobsen initiated an investigation after Army HQ received three different reports about groups of soldiers getting sick after firing the new rifles. Symptoms included headaches, fever and joint pain. The investigation has determined that the soldiers were experiencing mild heavy metal poisoning caused by the “green” lead-free 5.56mm NATO ammunition manufactured by Nammo.
The report states that the gas exhausted from the rifles contained high levels of copper and zinc which account for all the symptoms suffered by the riflemen. A few, quite comical, short term solutions have been recommended. These include only shooting outside, slower rate of fire and spacing the shooters out more when at the range!
.. advocates of a gun-free America and a disarmed citizenry ..
want to disarm you.
Take away your security and your family’s too.
so they can feeeeel goood.
how touuuuching.
That policy will likely get us ALL killed.
Idiots.
5.56mm
Is recycling of existing ammo a way to get around the lack of new production?
Or steel bullets?
Going to skyrocket?
In the last few years a brick of 22s has gone from 12 to 14 dollars to 75 and above. What’s next a dollar a round 22s?
If you like ammo for your gun you can keep your ammo for your gun. Period! (if you can pay for it. Self defense for the rich and not the serfs)
There is so much lead produced in Mexico it is ridiculous to think this will effect ammo prices.
There are lead mines and smelters in both Canada and Mexico, and there are no restrictions on importing lead bars into the US.
A standard size is a 2” thick x 4” wide x 8”, 99% pure lead brick, which weighs 26.25/lbs. There are 7000 grains to a pound, and a round of .45 ACP US Army Ball FMJ weighs 230 grains. So you’re looking at about 30 rounds per pound of lead, so a single lead bar can give you about 800 rounds.
GUN CONTROL PING
The next “American President” needs to repeal all EPA regulations issue since Jan. 2008.
GUN CONTROL PING
Abolish the EPA. Just get rid of it, lock, stock, and barrel.
