This is precisely to produce intended consequences, a raw stab at the 2A, nothing else.

And now we know why the feds bought billions upon billions of rounds for all the federal alphabet agencies.

Federal tyranny and unconstitutional as all executive legislation - “regulations” - are, and which the states must NULLIFY AND REJECT.

IMO, they want us to spend our money on ammunition and such instead of Donald Trump’s candidacy.

It’s always been the root currency along with beans.

Beans and Bullets.

Study the human behaviors, the starvation, the ensuing savagery of for example the war in Bosnia-Herzegovina 1992.

Under such conditions, Gold and Jewelry don’t matter.

The only thing that matters to survival under such conditions are BEANS and BULLETS.

IMHO, if SHTF, it will be worth more than gold, possibly a price above rubies..

http://www.ammoland.com/2016/08/atf-reclassifies-wetted-nitrocellulose-as-explosive-materials-under-federal-laws/#axzz4IyfLqNt6

June 2016 - Addendum August 31, 2016
Nitrocellulose - Update
ATF’s June 2016 Explosives Industry Newsletter included a brief discussion of Nitrocellulose, and attempted to clarify the circumstances under which wetted Nitrocellulose is considered a high explosive under 27 CFR, Part 555. As with all explosives, ATF’s focus is on the potential public safety risks associated with materials that can be misused or diverted to unlawful purposes. Subsequent contact from industry members who import, transport, store or employ wetted Nitrocellulose in the production of ammunition, however, has brought to our attention issues that were not fully addressed in the Newsletter and require further consultation and consideration with the industry. Accordingly, ATF has and will conduct further industry outreach concerning wetted Nitrocellulose. In the interim, previously authorized industry practices concerning wetted Nitrocellulose will not be affected

I think Obama would view cops losing most of their ammo as a fringe benefit. I think Obama WANTS more dead cops.

“Then they’d make a law enforcement loophole.”

You can’t make a loophole, because this effects the manufacturer not the end user. Anyway, just placed a big order with my on-line ammo supplier to make sure I am not short as a result of these a$$holes at the BATFE. And as another poster commented, President Trump needs to seriously reform or get rid of the BATFE. The only good news here is that Jeh Johnson will be gone as of the inauguration.

Evidently this is a false alarm.

Obama, pissing off gun owners 9 weeks before the election. When the ammo run hits, that’ll motivate people.

No, that wasn’t my point.

The point was, they’d need to back off. They won’t for us.

We’re up a creek until Trump is sworn in.

Then I hope fires every one of these a— h-—s.

What part of the Second Amendment do they not grasp?

Take a good look .. everybody who thinks Hillary is just great .. this is the same kind of garbage regulation Hillary will continue to use to get at the 2nd Amendment.

Vote Trump .. unless you want to kiss your weapons goodbye.

The author needs to calm down a little bit before he hurts himself.

A lot of people would agree that this is an irresponsible policy change, and the fact that it came in the form of a newsletter is frustrating for many. It sounds like the legal battle is just beginning on this one, but hopefully they get to the bottom of why this change was made so drastically.

It’s worth noting that nothing major is likely to be affected by this policy change, since no major manufacturer has been contacted or notified of any such information. In addition, the ATF has granted waivers to ammunition manufactures in the past. Source

Happened in June, BTW.

Ammunition control is always backdoor gun control.

I’ve been hunting for what exactly Obama just did...so far nothing but reporting the regulation in news and news sites....

This needs confirmation...

"Happened in June, BTW."

Golly-Gosh-Darn-It-All-To-Heck!

You and your cold light of facts and reason.
And I was just preparing for my best Chicken Little act.

this "breaking news" happened back in June, and apparently the whole point of ATF publication was to grant a variance:

So apparently the end of the ammo world isn't happening just yet.
