"He stated most of this will now go to foundries where it will be melted down, cast in shippable forms, and likely be sold to China, one of the largest purchasers of U.S. metals on the open market."
Then China will melt it down, make military bullets for regimes like Mexico, so it can come back and kill us.
they cant ban the rifles...they know that, but they can make the ammo so expensive that you cant afford to shoot em.
Or at least they can try.
I will start buyin 223 hunting ammo before I will fold for that lot.
Emailed my Congresscritters about it. I expect Chambliss and Isakson will be raising hell about it and Barrow will act as if it’s not a problem (as per usual).
BTW I will be posting A thread for todays Gun Talk with Tom Gresham in about an hour here on FR
What about their precious "Global Warming"? Don't they care about the wasted energy?
The hypocrite dems won’t recycle.

So why can’t we pursue a market response to this? Buy up the shredded brass, melt it down, and sell the refurbished brass to ammunition manufacturers?
The real issue is still government repression of Constitutional firearm ownership. If you can’t own the firearm, all the ammunition in the world is useless. Stay focused.
One thing you can say about the RATS, they never hesitate to reward their supporters. First the porkulus which is nothing more than fully finding every RAT supporting group in perpetutity, now an attack on gun owners to reward the Brady crowd. The repubs barely acknowledge they have supporters.

Obama Says A Baby Is A Punishment
Obama: If they make a mistake, I dont want them punished with a baby.
Back in the Clinton years it was said the military was destroying all empty ammo cans. They are still on the market, but for how long?
Back in early 1968, I got lots of free casings at our military firing range, When Bobby Kennedy was shot new rules came in and all empties had to be accounted for. No more free brass.
I hope the NRA gets on this quick. Just a suggestion for all of you Armalite/Rock River evil black gun types. Most of these rifles have a .22 lr conversion kit for them. I would suggest not to use the ones with just a new bolt carrier, but a new upper receiver. Neither is perfect, but in these times, we have to do what we have to do. Having this, you can save your .223 ammo for when the SHTF and use the .22 lr convertor for practice.
