It should be very obvious by now that Obama talks out of both sides of his mouth. First he says that he is against private owner ship of guns by the citizens. Then during the campaign, he said that he fully supported the Second Amendment. So, what are we to believe? I for one, believe that Obama intends to disarm the citizens of the United States, and he is doing it in a sneaky and underhanded way, but you can decide for yourselves.
Does anyone still wonder why ammunition is scarce and expensive? Perhaps this is why?
Georgia Arms is the fifth largest retailer of .223 ammo in America. (they sell 9mm., 45 cal., etc., ammo)
They normally buy spent brass from the U.S. Department of Defense - "one time used" used shell casings by our military - from firearms training on our military bases, etc. They buy the empty brass shells and reload them for resale to law enforcement, gun shops, gun clubs and to Wal-Mart.
Georgia Arms normally buys 30,000 pounds of spent brass shells at a time.
This week, the D.O.D. wrote a letter to the owner of Georgia Arms stating that from now on the D.O.D. will be destroying the brass by shredding it. It is no longer available to ammo makers - unless they just buy it in the scrap shredded condition, which the ammo makers have no use for. The shredded brass is now going to be sold by the D.O.D to China as scrape metal.....that is after the D.O.D pays for the shredding, also, the D.O.D will be selling the brass to China for less money then the ammo manufacturers have been paying for the whole empty shells. That sure helps the U.S. economy, doesn't it? Sell cheaper to China and do not sell shells at all to a proven U.S. business. Is there an agenda at work here? Could Obama be going after our ammunition?
The owner of Georgia Arms related how one of his competitors had already purchased a load of spent brass shells last week and the D.O.D. contacted him this week and said that were sending an agent over to make sure that it was destroyed, SHELL CASINGS HE HAD ALREADY PURCHASED! The brass has no value to the ammo makers if it has been shredded because they only use the empty brass shells to reload different calibers, namely .223 cal. bullets.
The Georgia Arms owner says that he will have to lay off at least half of his sixty workers, within two - three months if the D.O.D. no longer sells their spent brass shells to them. He only has two - three months of shells left in inventory. By summer he is out of supply. If he has to buy new manufactured brass shells, then the cost of the ammunition for the buyer will double and/or triple in cost .... plus Obama wants to add a 500% tax on each shell sold.
Loss of U.S. jobs, control of ammunition by the Obama administration......this is liberalism at its best and we will be well on our way to socialism and worse. When times get bad....and they will very soon.... only the bad will have guns and ammo. This "Obamination" is going to turn good citizens into criminals, by taking our guns and ammo.
Thank God Obama cannot outlaw trees, we can still make crossbows and hide in the dark.
