Biden imposes additional 30% tax on imported Russian ammo

[Gbirk]

Did anybody else see that yesterday Biden signed a new bill adding a 30% tax on imported Russian ammo? His original Russian ammo ban only affected new Form 6 permits starting 9/7/21, and they are good for 2 years, so there was still "reasonably" priced steel case ammo coming in. Yesterday he signed a bill (HR 7108) adding a 30% tax on imported Russian ammo beginning April 9th. Bye Bye cheap steel case........it was nice knowing you.

April 9th? Is this a retroactive tax?

The real shocker is that he still knows how to sign his name.

Yes, it does seem to be retroactive.

as far as I am concerned there should be a complete ban on all Russian goods coming into this country.

I wouldn't buy Ruskie ammo now might be hot or not but Ivan prolly does not give a sideways turd about QC when it it going to be shipped to MERICA !

Sure glad we no longer have those mean tweets.

Any tax sucks; any time, anywhere. And anything anti-gun is a no-go, including the latest crap from a certain, most unfortunate administration. (But personally, I wouldn't buy it anyway, for the same reason I don't smoke Cuban cigars.)

 

[JuglansRegia]

Pretty soon and the Russians will be needing that ammo more than us.

Uh Huh, especially, "Short Term Capital Gains".

What about stuff that's already here? So your okay hurting Americans and their companies since they may have bought these items months or even years ago. Items that were likely held up in transit by Dementia Joe and his policies. Nice.

Exactly. Replaced with sky rocketing prices, out of control crime and many more that we all know.

The OLCC did that with Vodka, it's already here and paid for, but they won't sell it.
