    Ammo to be time sensitive?!


    Sorry if it's a repost. Anyone else heard about this? I really hope this never becomes reality. Discuss

    Its just as stupid as the idea of controlling the guns.

    Lets say, right now, that every box of ammo made henceforth has an expiration date. There's still boxes of "immortal" ammo in my closet and even more at my local gun dealer. Don't even think about how much commercial powder is out in circulation at different homes and businesses all over the country.

    It would take MONTHS to purge the ammo supply chain of "immortal" rounds, during which it would be the greatest ammo run in American history. People would jump into reloading just to cash in on the rush. By the time any ban would take effect, there'd be TRILLIONS of rounds of ammo in circulation with a shelf life of infinity. You may as well try to ban mosquitos.

    The 1911 may have been in wars for 100 years, but Masetro Bartolomeo Beretta was arming the world 400 years before John Browning was ever a wet dream.

          If this were to happen, Ammunition suppliers would soon be all but out of business, and only supplying to LEO & military. Lake city would probably have 95% of all sales.
          All others would go belly up, as the price for citizen ammo supplies would seem to sky rocket to the point that it was unaffordable & our illustrious leaders would have won &, the sale out of America would be complete.

          This would certainly pave the road to complete Tyranny !

              No company is ever going to pursue making unstable propellants.
