Ban was going to happen without intervention. Not sure I would consider people gullible.

238 reps and 52 Senators contacted BATFE about this in opposition.





This was a perfect example of how easily this shite gets blown out of proportion. They released a statement speaking of the possibility of a ban and next thing you know all of the genius investors go buy shite tons of ammo. Honestly to me this is the best thing that could happen to half of these dumbasses that buy then resell this stuff. I hope a few more of these happen and they are living in vans down by the river.

Were you purchasing firearms in 1994?

Some people get so torqued up about what other people do with their money.

It wasn't just a possibility. IF you actually read the proposal you'd know the ATF had already made the decision to remove the sporting purposes exemption from M855. The commentary period was about implementation.

That's not true, brah. They published guidelines with the exception removed (effectively banning the SS109/M855 and derivatives) - THEN realized they fricked up their own rules and published the notice. I'm not sure how they thought it was going to be received.

But, this was not a trial balloon. Don't believe me at your own peril.
