This is from an e-mail I got. It isn't limited to just Arizona(Arizona stuff's in there because of where I'm at), but 17 other states. So, I figured some of you may find this interesting.
ARIZONA HB2833
Coded Ammunition; State Database
Sponsors:
Martha Garcia (D) District 13 mgarcia@azleg.gov
Linda Lopez (D) District 29 llopez@azleg.gov
Manual Alvarez (D) District 25 malverez@azleg.gov
David Bradley (D) District 28 dbradley@azleg.gov
Cloves Campbell, Jr. (D) District 16 clcampbell@azleg.gov
Please contact the legislators above and express your opinion relating to the viability of coded ammunition and having a state data base with your information in it!
Far easier to just delete this; but if you act now to head off this foolishness you can save a much bigger fight in the future
Secondly, please contact the representatives in your home district and encourage to them to vote against HB 2833
Finding your representative is very simple at www.az.leg.gov
Please get involved now! Our ability to protect ourselves will only become more dire if we are complacent.
"When a government is big enough to give you
everything you want, it is big enough to take
everything you have"..........Thomas Jefferson
Remember how the Obamanation said that he wasn't
going to take your guns?
Well, it seems that his minions and allies in the anti-gun
world have no problem with taking your ammo!
The bill that is being pushed in 18 states that requires all ammunition to be encoded by
the manufacturer and a data base of all ammunition sales.
So they will know how much you buy and what calibers.
Nobody can sell any ammunition after June 30, 2009
unless the ammunition is 'coded'.
Any privately held uncoded ammunition must be destroyed
by July 1, 2011. (Including hand-loaded ammo.)
They will also charge a .05 cent tax on every round so
every box of ammo you buy will go up at least $2.50 or more!
If they can deprive you of ammo they do not need to take your guns!
This legislation is currently pending in 18 states:
* Alabama * Arizona * California * Connecticut * Hawaii * Illinois * Indiana * Kentucky * Maryland * Mississippi * Missouri * New Jersey * New York * Pennsylvania * Rhode Island * South Carolina * Tennessee * Washington

They keep trying their bad ideas every year hoping they can slip one in. It’s a NO GO in Missouri already.
Be vigilant.
My Representative tells me the Indiana bill is dead and gone. Crawford will have to start from scratch next year if he wants to introduce it. It was introduced last January, directed to committee, and died. R.I.P.
This unfounded and alarmist email has already been posted.
I like the one where both guns and ammo will be federally taxed 500% .....
I don’t believe that this is a bad email. We need to keep track of the efforts to take ammo off the market as it appears to be their weapon of choice now. We should keep this upfront in everyone’s mind.
They haven’t bothered to try to offer this bill in Texas, but I keep as close track of their efforts as possible.
Sen Joe Biden supported a bill to keep certain ammunition from gun owners, but it failed....so this isn’t surprising.

Somebody has a patent they want to make a fortune on. The concept is crap and harassment.
So, is that the date that they are going to come for it??? Stick guns in our faces and search every house?
If anything like this passes I am going to buy all ammo on the black market.
Thispart is the real kicker:
“No later than January 1, 2010, all noncoded ammunition, whether owned by private citizens or retail outlets, must be disposed.”
Oh Surrrrrre!
I'll be destroying my non-coded ammunition by handing it over to them in three round bursts!!!
Yes Mr. NSF* member. I have a gun with a problem ... too many bullets in it .... would you mind holding a few?????
*The Obama National Security Force he wants ....
Well, if Her Masculinity (Uncle Janet) gets confirmed soon enough for DHS, Jan Brewer will be Gov. and this will probably be DOA. I don’t think it’d make it out of the legislature anyway.
