As has been pointed out repeatedly on FR, there are several makers of non-lead bullets in the USA, they work quite well. Barnes bullets is the maker I am most familiar with and I know there ammo is great.

Make no mistake, banning lead bullets is definitely an attempt to keep people from having ammo but it hasn't worked and won't work.

Smelting lead is much different than recovering lead. Recovering lead will give the manufacturers all they need. Furthermore, there is still a wide-open marketplace in raw metals, and lead has many uses. Lots of Chinese imports still.

Obama may be in charge of the EPA now, but this started before he became president.

And it was congress that granted the EPA dictatorial powers under the “Clean Air Act” (and the “Clean Water Act”).

How about all the lead products used in home building?

Particularly lead flashing in roofing.

When the EPA began it’s war on lead back in the early 1970s. I always thought the real goal was to eventually ban ammo.

MAYBE its time for neighborhood groups to form well-regulated militias which could buy equipment to load and reload ammunition for the members.

Time to start a cottage industry of visits to Canada in large vehicles and returning with loads of lead, before they ban the import of said substance.
