“How about building some SS109/M855 5.56 bullets in you kitchen? Without those, you built a nice paper weight.”

If you had a clue what you are talking about you would have saved your breath on this one. He Built an AR-10, it does not chamber or fire the ammunition you referred to..
Before you engage your fingers/mouth on issues you really need to know what the hell you are talking about. You failed.
And by the way, I load my own ammo every day. Although this ammo ban is stupid it will not slow down my reloading process at all. The full metal jacket Ball ammo they want to ban is my last choice to shoot out of my AR-15’s because it is non expanding and just punches little holes. I much prefer soft nose, or hollow point bullets that expand in the target displacing more tissue and expending much more energy into the target.
If the Oboma bots get their way everyone will have to shoot these more deadly bullets...
Sometimes things just do not work out like you want them too.. With this ban, more people will die because of the mandated use of much more lethal bullets.

” With this ban, more people will die because of the mandated use of much more lethal bullets.”

Might or might not be true, since virtually no criminals are using AR’s to commit crimes. The real truth is that the ATF is just trying to “whore up” the AR ammo marketplace, and to keep military surplus M855 ammo out of civilian hands. And all the while, we sit here with the Second Amendment as the only one of The Bill of Rights that requires a citizen to get a license to exercise that RIGHT, while the SCOTUS simply picks at the issue as if it were a scab on a sore. The SCOTUS is still trying to figure out how to “pick up what they regard as a legal turd, by the clean end.”

I Built an AR15 in My Kitchen

"After three hours of work with light tools, I had built the essential component of an AR-15 rifle."

If you had a clue what you are talking about you would have saved your breath on this one. He Built an AR-10, it does not chamber or fire the ammunition you referred to..

Ooooh, oldenuff2no - you're some smart, I would never have figured that out based on the title and discussion until the end....but you are right. The author finishes up with "A quick confession—my new firearm isn’t technically an AR-15, but an AR-10. This variant is similar except that it fires a more powerful 7.62-millimeter NATO bullet, compared to the standard AR-15’s 5.56-millimeter round."

I don't know why he titled this as a home-built AR15 in the first place. But unlike you, I am clueless...

In Broken Arrow’s defense the title does say he built an AR15. Furthermore IMO your post was unnecessarily rude and insulting.

Doubtful that the ban will result in more murders, although such a ban is not a good thing. Armed robbers aren't likely to transform into gray-haired, grouchy reloading nerds with fading ballistic charts in their brains.
