I’m not accusing you or anything because you’re a good FReeper but I think we should be very careful that we don’t end up carrying out the goals of the left for them.

I’ve done enough studying on Cass Sunstein to know that manipulating your opposition into carrying out your goals is one of his tactics.

Just something to think about.

Besides, the manufacturer may have a longstanding contract that they can’t walk away from.

longstanding contracts

That was my first thought as well.

Still, I'd like to know who they are.

You are correct.

What we need to do is buy all we can to encourage the manufacturers to produce more. That way, we win on two fronts; first, we encourage the manufacturers and second, we demonstrate to the country how important the industry is to the economy and to the job market.

However, I am interested to know who the manufacturers are selling to for a different reason.

If we could get all ammo manufacturers to publish the government branches to whom they are shipping, along with the quantities per annum, we could finally nail down the rumours or facts as to who is buying what.

That would in turn give us a good clue as to the intended use....whether is for national defense, use within the US borders or as I have come to believe, to dry up the supply and make it too expensive for the ordinary person.

In other words, market manipulation.

Yes, most likely these ammo mfrs signed contracts months ago.

Although, I would like to get name brand ammo at reasonable prices instead of this foreign crap that is being sold now.
