What on earth do you base your "thinking" on?
No kidding, I saw a special on TV where the army was looking for more enviromentally friendly ammo for target ranges. Developmental at this time, or then again maybe past that. Anti-lead crowd.
Or how about the end run on clintons ban on selling US surplus ammo to the pesants as mentioned on a previous post. One company takes the surplus ammo apart and basically puts it back together and then sells it as remanufactured. Is that (clinton ban) stupid or what.
The surplus ammo you can buy is made overseas.
