Ban on reloading

[Oregonhunter5]

If the potus wants to stamp all bullets, than reloading might take a huge hit, or be outlawed soon.
Hope this wouldnt happen.
But if a bad person could grind off a serial number off the back of a bullet, then it's untraceable now.
Man I hope these monkeys don't do that to us.

Bump. Think about his folks.

Pretty sure no one will be stamping the millions of rounds that are hand cast in homes. This type of law would be completely non-effective in stopping crime.

Unfortunatly, it won't matter to the gun grabbers.

Sadly, you are correct. When guns are gone, they'll go after knives. Pointy objects are bad, mmmmk.

This is a snippet from a 2005 BBC article. When I first found it, I thought it a parody page but these morons are quite serious.

A team from West Middlesex University Hospital said violent crime is on the increase - and kitchen knives are used in as many as half of all stabbings.

They argued many assaults are committed impulsively, prompted by alcohol and drugs, and a kitchen knife often makes an all too available weapon.

The researchers said there was no reason for long pointed knives to be publicly available at all.They consulted 10 top chefs from around the UK, and found such knives have little practical value in the kitchen.

Don't blame the drugs and alcohol, blame the knives. Personal responsibility has no place in modern society.

The holy grail is to be marked by the beast, so I'm/we're told. That ("marking bullets")is but minutiae compared to what is already being done. And so things go.

"when guns are gone" we will only have ourselves to blame as protectors of the Second Amendment. It is not the job of the military, police, or the government to protect it! It is OUR duty, everyone who owns a firearm. In the revolutionary war 10% of the people fought against the british and won! I would hope that in this day and age that people would take their freedom a little more seriously then they did back then...Sadly I don't think that is the case.
I know one thing for sure, I will die a free man long before I live a slave or a subject!

Poor choice of words on my part. I meant to say "If they get their way and guns are gone..."

The gov speaks in this of the futility of controlling ammo.Worth a read.

Our own experience in regulating domestic transfers has shown that there is little utility for law enforcement in imposing the same controls on ammunition transfers as we do on arms. Accordingly, the United States largely eliminated most controls on domestic transfers of ammunition

It is fungible, consumable, reloadable, and cannot be marked in any practical way that would permit it to be tracked or traced.

It would require a LOT of resources, including more government and dollars, to do any of this. That is why New York backtracked on microstamping.

Oh so it wasn't because Microstamping had no possible way of working in anyway?

Well, actually there were myriad reasons, one of which was the debate as to whether it would work.

Everyone should own, and regularly shoot, a .357 magnum revolver.

1) like all wheel guns, it doesn't chuck brass.
2) the caliber comes chambered in some pretty nice lever guns.
3) two calibers for one using .38 Special.
4) not dependent on bullet shape to feed.
5) easy to reload cartridge.
6) velocity variances don't impact function.
7) case capacity means black powder is not a reloading obstacle if it's all that's available.
8) they're fun.
9) come in a variety of revolver sizes.
10) whether .357 or .38 Spec, the round can be hot loaded when used with modern revolvers and rifles.

11) Works well with cast bullets made in one's garage. The unmarked, unenforcible ones made from unbannable materials. Remember, the weak link is primers. Spend your dollars on primers.
