Great little anedotes but what is government up to. This can't be used for the military. So are they trying to corner the market and deprive the public of ammunition? Remember there is serious talk about banning bulk ammo sales. Wonder if this ammo will end up in the ocean or in a warehouse next to the Ark of the Convenant?

Ammo is a better investment than any stocks, bonds or gold for this matter if Obama gets reelected. Prices will go sky high again.

Gun sales will go nuts

I'm a little concerned about 300 Special Agents of the Social Security Administration, but, assuming that's correct, that's 500 rounds per each, which isn't unreasonable.

I'd be willing to give them the benefit of the doubt on the "target shooting" claim: if .40 cal hollow point has unique ballistics, then it makes sense to practice with the real load, so you know how to aim when it's for real.

The claim about it being standard issue should be easy enough to check.

Interesting slant on things
AMERICA'S HUNTERS --- Pretty Amazing!
The
world's largest army... America 's hunters!

I had never thought about this...

A blogger
added up the deer license sales

in just a
handful of states and

arrived at a striking
conclusion:


There
were over 600,000 hunters

this season
in the state of Wisconsin .

Allow me to restate that number:


Over the last
several months,

Wisconsin's hunters
became the eighth largest army in
the world.


More
men under arms than in Iran .


More than
France and Germany combined.

These men

deployed to
the woods of a single American state,

Wisconsin,
to hunt with
firearms, and

no one was killed.

That
number pales in comparison to the 750,000

who hunted the woods of Pennsylvania and
Michigan's
700,000 hunters,

all of whom
have now returned home safely.

Toss in a quarter million hunters
in West Virginia

and it literally establishes
the fact

that the
hunters of those four states alone

would
comprise the largest army in the world.

And then add
in the total number of hunters

in the other
46 states.

It's millions more.

The point?

America will forever be safe

from foreign
invasionwith that
kind of

home-grown
firepower
.


Hunting....

it's not just
a way to fill the freezer..

It's a matter
of

national security.

****************************** *********
That's why all enemies,

foreign and
domestic,

want to see us
disarmed.

Food for thought,

when next we
consider gun control.


Have A Great day!
-------------------------------------
Overall it's true,

so if we
disregard some assumptions

that hunters
don't possess the same skills as soldiers,

the question
would still remain...

what army of
2 million

would want
to face

30, 40, or
50 million armed citizens?
