Was in the BX down here at Robins AFB Georgia today and strolled over to the magazine aisle to see everything over 10 rounds pulled. Made a few calls to friends at other bases and the same. I know Colorado was already down to 15 but looks like AFFES thinks you should only have 10 now. This is AFFES wide across all states.

Looks like you'll need to find another source.

It was merely an observation of yet another Business dictating what they think we should and shouldn't own. After all the people that shop there put their lives on the line to protect this country ...but can't be trusted after all I guess? Wasn't a place I expected to pull this stunt.

Doesn't surprise me as I expect social media to take our society into the shitter based on social pressure, no matter how real or fake the feedback is. In social media, it's guilty until proven innocent.

AAFES claims they have the service members interests at heart. They are no different than Walmart or Sears. Oh well, I wouldn't be surprised if they just has a run on hi caps.

This is an organization that has recently dictated that transvestites are to be hired and their medical bills paid for, women are to be placed in combat units alongside men, gays are welcome in the showers, etc. I cannot be surprised anymore.

Hoping Trump can at least start the pendulum back the other way after so many years of PC Clinton, Bush, and Obama.

Trump is calling for an AWB. Fuck him right in his Tweet hole.

Wonder if Patriot Outfitters on Carson is the same... they're not AAFES but play in AAFES' sandbox.

The funny thing is, such a ban would not extend to the military or police. So, it's fairly retarded to do this in an AAFES location.

However, I'd definitely be ok with the military and police having exactly the same hamstringing as us civilians (cue... who is it, zundfolge?, to say police are civilians because of some ruling from 1849 or whatever it was. :D)

I would giggle for days if the 10 rounders started showing up in the armory. It is a little hard to wrap my head around being in the military, and not trusted with more than 10 rounds after hours. I remember in the 90's the amount of "restricted" milspec magazines I'd see.
