Obama to ban 5.56 ammo by executive order

[BUC303]

Here we go...[Mad]

"As promised, President Obama is using executive actions to impose gun control on the nation, targeting the top-selling rifle in the country, the AR-15 style semi-automatic, with a ban on one of the most-used AR bullets by sportsmen and target shooters."

I'm assuming this is just the ATF reclassifying M885 as armor piercing.. Maybe Obama is behind it.. maybe not. Alex Jones is a nutcase either way.

Be forewarned, Alex Jones is unpopular among the staff and membership.

Everyone here is aware of the reclassification of M855 by ATF. Alex Jones will sensationalize(has according to your blurb) into outer space and that makes him as lame as main stream media.

I just scanned that real quick and despite the sensational title it appears to only reference XM855(that we have been talking about for the past week), not All 5.56 ammo

There was already a whole thread about this ban.

The title did get my attention, but I agree it's the 855 ammo they are talking about.
