I received this via Email:
Congressman John Culberson (R-Harris Co) Says Repeal of Ammo Ban Immediate and Permanent!
Half an hour ago, Congressman John Culberton (R-Harris Co) called TSRA and asked that we get the message out to our members.
The ban on green tip ammo has been repealed and it’s gone for good!
Congressman Culberson chairs a committee with direct influence over BATF and was able to convince those within the agency to remove the ban. We were also told that the ban was actually the first of several. All part of a “research project” designed to review many types of common ammunition which might be armor-piercing.
God Bless the Texas Delegation and God Bless Congressman John Culberson who remembers TSRA members sent him to Congress many years ago and took a moment to call.
And as always,
Keep the faith.

Legislative Director

For Now
And now that we have your information, you will be contacted shortly.
It was too easy for them. When they try again later, they will go even further. Similar to what they did last year when they tried to impose the fairness doctrine on the radio and in newsrooms. They backed off only to come back a year later with net neutrality.
The left will arrange a shooting somewhere and the bullets used will be m855.
Backed off for now and will reevaluate - probably come up with a harsher “solution” once the smoke and mirrors clears. I can visualize them manufacturing a handgun which will accept a round of each of the potentially tagged “armor piercing rounds” just so they can ban them because there is a handgun that accepts them.
Thank God! All the more reason to make sure a Republican wins in 2016. Another Democrat in the White House will surely come back and try this again.
