i've been scratchin' my head wondering what kinda dirty tricks the obamanation was gonna pull to keep us from shooting. he's said all along we can have guns, but it's been pretty apparant he's gonna make it painfull to shoot em. i still look for some kinda hazardous waste legislation to stop us from using bullets, primers and powder. then i got this today. what a deal. they are gonna actually lose money to sell brass to the commies. sorta like how we sold the old "el" railroad to japan before WWII so they could melt it down to make ships to and guns to wage war against us. this is a sad deal. again, anyone who voted for obama, slug yourself in the mouth, every morning. the game is on. Lark.

 

Georgia Arms is the 5th largest retailer of .223 Ammo in America . (they

sell 9 mm, .45, etc ammo)

 

They normally buy spent brass from the US Dept of Defense - 'one time

used' shell casings by our Military - from training on Military bases,

etc. They buy the brass and then re-load for resale to Law Enforcement,

Gun Shops, Gun Clubs, Wal-Mart, and etc.

 

They normally buy 30,000 lbs of spent brass at a time.

 

This week the DoD wrote a letter to the owner of Georgia Arms and said

that from now on the DoD will be destroying the brass - shredding it

It is no longer available to the Ammo makers - unless they just buy it

in a scrap shredded condition (which they have No use for). The

shredded brass is NOW going to be sold by the DoD to China as scrap

metal....after the DoD pays for it to be shredded. The DoD is selling

the brass to China for less money than Ammo manufacturers have been

paying...plus the DoD has to pay to have the brass shredded and do all

the accounting paperwork. That sure helps the US economy now, doesn't it?

 

Sell cheaper to China - and do not sell shells at all to a proven

US business. Any agenda working here???? Obama going after our

ammunition!!!!!

 

The Georgia Arms owner even related a story that one of his competitors

had already purchased a load of brass last week - and the DoD contacted

him this week and said they were sending someone over to make sure it

was destroyed.. Shell Casings he had already bought! THE BRASS HAS NO

VALUE TO THE AMMO MAKER IF IT IS DESTROYED/SHREDDED/MELTED. THE AMMO

MANUFACTURER ONLY USES THE EMPTY BRASS SHELLS TO RELOAD DIFFERENT

CALIBERS - MAINLY .223 BULLETS.

 

Georgia Arms owner says that he will have to lay off at least Half of

his 60 workers, within 2 - 3 months if the DoD no longer sells their

spent brass to him. He has 2 - 3 months inventory of shells to use. By

summer - he's out. If he has to buy new manufactured brass shells, then

the cost of ammunitioin to the buyer will double and triple...plus Obama

wants to add a 500% tax on each shell.

Loss of US jobs, control of ammunition by the new Obama

adminis tration....liberalism at its best and on the way to socialism.

When times get bad...and they will very soon...only the bad will have

guns and ammo. This new "Obomanation" is going to make good citizens

into crinimals by trying to take our guns and ammo.

Thanks for sharing Lark

but that order was reversed.

It does go to show how they are trying to attack gun owners.

 

We will see what the next trick is
