Subject: Nobody can sell ammo after 6/30/09


You might want to send this to all your hunting buddies family & friends. Nobody can sell any ammunition after June 30, 2009 It has already started.... Ammunition Accountability Legislation Remember how Obama said that he wasn't going to take your guns? Well, it seems that his allies in the anti-gun world have no problem with taking your ammo! The bill 20 that is being pushed in 18 states (including Illinois and Indiana ) requires all ammunition to be encoded by the manufacture a data base of all ammunition sales. So they will know how much you buy and what calibers. Nobody can sell any ammunition after June 30, 2009 unless the ammunition is coded. Any privately held uncoded ammunition must be destroyed by July 1, 2011. (Including hand loaded ammo.) They will also charge a .05 cent tax on every round so every box of ammo you buy will go up at least $2.50 or more! If they can deprive you of ammo they do not need to take your gun! This legislation is currently pending in 18 states: Alabama , Arizona , California , Connecticut , Hawaii , Illinois , Indiana , Kentucky , Maryland , Mississippi , Missouri , New Jersey , New York , Pennsylvania , Rhode Island , South Carolina , Tennessee , and Washington .. Send &nb sp; ;to your friends in these states AND fight to dissolve this BILL!! To find more about the anti-gun group that is sponsoring this legislation and the specific legislation for each state, go to:

What does Obama have to do with any of this? These are all state bills, I doubt these states are proposing these bills on his orders. Get a grip...no one is knocking on your door asking for your guns...

The legislation doesn't say you can't buy ammunition, only non-coded ammunition. No one really like anonymous ammunition anyway, we like them to have names

Colorado isn't among the states proposing this

Stick to cpa.ing and we will stick to defending our right.

However RMGO sent me this.

Ammo Accountability group has patents on technology used to enforce legislation they sponsor but their scheme isn't getting traction

A visit to the website Ammunition Accountability.org -- they also run a mirror .com site -- would lead you to believe that they were a grassroots conglomeration of concerned citizens and civic leaders with an unimpressive, low-tech website.

That couldn't be further from the truth.

The Ammunition Accountability Act and corresponding website are run by a company that developed the technology necessary to enforce the same legislation they lobby for. In other words, the founders of the Ammunition Accountability Act are pushing legislation which will have a direct and substantial financial benefit to them.

The legislation calls for each individual piece of ammunition produced to be etched or stamped with a unique serial number. This patented technology was developed by Russ Ford and his business partners Steve Mace and John Knickerbocker of Seattle, Washington.

Ford and his associates were unable to convince any ammunition manufacturers to use their technology, so they hired a lobbyist to push for state-level ammo tagging legislation.

Ostensibly Ford and company are billing this legislation as a way to stop violent crime by tracking handgun and “assault weapon” ammunition.

However, the sample text of their legislation -- provided on their website -- would outlaw the ownership of all non-tagged ammo of any caliber. Additionally, the legislation would require a state-run database to track each ammunition serial number and information on who purchased each round of ammo.

Not only does the legislation directly aim to financial benefit Ford and his business partners, but it will push most ammunition manufactures out of business, and make home reloading ammunition illegal.

Their legislation has been introduced in 18 states in 2008.
However, none of introduced pieces of legislation have gotten beyond committee hearings in any state. They have all died, most killed in their first committee of reference.. Each of the introduced bills has died on their respective calendars when each state legislative session adjourned sine die.
In Colorado, this legislation has never even been introduced, though for the last two years there has been a group urging legislators to carry this legislation.
Our office has been flooded with daily e-mails about this issue, many of them -- wrongly -- asserting that the legislation has already passed. It's simply not true.
Ammunition Accountability is little more than a couple of anti-gunners trying to cash in on hoplophobia. And thankfully, they haven't been getting anywhere with their zany idea.

Sentators Brophy and Harvey said a similar bill tried to get introduced in CO but him and others defeted it.

And Obama is anti gun Big time.

must be getting tiresome having to post the same ol' stuff on two message boards. Man with too much time on his hands.

This is all a bunch of hooey, you know that....and these senators should know that too...as should their constituents. Don't they have anything better to do then tell people they helped defeat something that was dead before it began?

Whether Obama is anti-gun or not...matters little if he has chosen not to act on those beliefs (and I have yet to see any direct quote that says he is anti-gun). Like some thinking people are anti-abortion but a smart enough not to try and ram it down others throats.

As usual, where guns/ammo/ad nauseum are concerned, "much ado about nothing." Jeez, get a grip--they aren't coming for your guns...

Guess you need to do more reading Wapiti, his anti gun agenda was released before he took office. He doesn't think citizens should have concealed cary for self protection. And he would like to reinstate the Clinton gun ban. Hell Biden wrote that ban. An unarmed society is easily controlled by a government no longer in fear of their people.

and in his home state of IL the most stingent gun laws allow for the most crimes in the vountry. Good old Black Panther Rush wants all guns to be banned.

guess ya'll are too busy defending the dems to really read the agenda's.

Hey gotta run will be shooting up some rounds and have a windy golf T time later.
