    Sounds like this applies to powders & primers too!

    This will put several companies out of business!

    When does this go into effect?
    I bought 2 8lb kegs of powder on Apr 17, 2002 ... and still waiting for it.

    In Australia ,this already partly applies. A shooters licence has to be shown before you can purchase any ammunition .No such thing as online purchasing of ammo.You do not ,however ,have to show anything to purchase gunpowder or primers.
    Work out the logic in that.

    Looks like this is just introduced into the House. I do not think this is law...yet.

    Not law yet,but we all must contact our Reps and pressure them to vote NO to HR 4101.

    Bingo. HR is still a bill. Everybody go to NRA.org and select on the politics tab, go to the "take action" button, select your state by zip code, and you can write not only your state & federal reps but all your regional newspapers as well.

    BY THE WAY, THE ABOVE BEGINS BY SAYING FIREARMS, AMMUNITION AND EXPLOSIVES MUST BE BOUGHT IN PERSON. DOESN'T THAT TAKE IN INTERNET AUCTION SALES AS WELL; DOES THIS CHANGE THE EFFECT ON FIREARMS OR NOT????!!

    Speaking of ammotogo, has anyone had a response from him lately? I won a bid back a few weeks and haven't had a response.

    Lets get on it: We all have e-mail, and congeressmen; Let they know how you feel. And the dopes that signed on to the bill. Give them an eye full.

    Good. We can also call them "reactionaries" and "throw-backs."
