It's one more little incremental erosion of our freedoms on the road to total confiscation. It's forced me to accept 10 rounds in a magazine that ought to hold between 12 and 15 or more. In a crisis it might make the difference between having enough rounds to do the job and maybe not. I ALWAYS carry a spare magazine when I carry a gun. When carrying my Ruger SP101 I carry three reloads in speedloaders. When carrying a Glock or Beretta or other semi-auto, I usually carry 1-2 spare mags depending on my destination and route that day. The caliber is also dependent on where I'm going to be. All in all, I strongly favor having MORE rather than LESS ammo! The stupid mag ban exemplifies this. ALSO, I don't enjoy paying over $100 for a high cap magazine.

Bush #41 really crisped my butt when he showed his NWO crfedentials in using an Executive Order to ban the importation of inexpensive Chinese 7.62x39 ammo and in the banning from importation a whole series of extremely capable firearms by a variety of gunmakers like the H&K PSG-1.

I'm less concerned by this ban because it will sunset than I am in fearing what may rise in it's place and be permanent. The Brady Bunch is already pursuing a whole slew of "improvements" to the old ban including requiring an "arsenal license" if you own more than say three guns; or a tax per bullet or a ban on reloading equipment. George Washington is alledged to have said this: "Fear the government that FEARS your guns!"
