    He must not be a very good friend or coworker to be willfully screwing him over that bad.

    Sounds like he deserves it if he wants Ruta to buy something he thinks is worthless.

    He deserves it IF he truly believes ALL 223 / 5.56 AMMO IS BANNED. I have offers out to AMMO PANIC owners too, they pay the BGC fees.

    The panic is real. Stopped in Wally-world yesterday for some .308, when a guy walks up and is super excited to find they had an ammo can of 5.56 (which turned out to actually be some other caliber) because "ATF is banning all .223 and 5.56." Ok, man. Have fun.

    What pissed me off were the emails i got from the NRA. They are basically saying that unless you read the fine print which most people dont. They see the "5.56 ban" headline and think its everything. The NRA did a very poor job with this, they need to be specific, not add to the panic...

    I think they are actually attempting to get people to panic in hopes more will write Washington and donate to the NRA.

    Not bad mouthing the NRA, I am a member and mostly like the organization. But their vague bulletins on the ban seem to me like a strategy rather than an oversight.

    He is both, and he knew I was joking for the last part... It's only worth 150$ cause soon they won't be any ammo for it!
