The Liberty Sphere's Political Buzz

The Liberty Sphere presents 'The Political Buzz'--the latest whispers and rumors swirling in and around the Beltway.

Go to most any gun store in America and sooner or later you will hear the rumor that big changes are on the way with regard to ammunition under the Barack Obama administration.

Several were overheard to say that one reason retailers can't get adequate supplies of ammo is that encoding is on the way, and thus, manufacturers are waiting until sometime after Jan. 20 to attempt to ascertain whether or not ammo encoding will be required under the incoming Administration.

This would save the manufacturer the costs of shipping out ammo that will only have to be recalled.

I asked a local dealer in South Carolina if this were true. He stated that anything is possible, but he doubts that this will be a nation-wide push due to the cost involved and the wave of vehement protest that would immediately ensue.

Another dealer, a female, was contacted, and she was bit more pessimistic. She could only say that she 'hopes' this is not the case about the ammo and that the main reason for the delay in shipments is the great Obama-inspired rush on guns and ammunition in the run-up to the 'regime change.'

She also made it a point to state that what she's hearing from the customers who frequent her store indicates that the vast majority have 'contingency plans' should Obama and his minions get wild ideas about encoding ammunition or restricting access to firearms.

In addition, House and Senate Republican conservatives also have a plan. They know that RINOS like John McCain will go along with much of the Obama plan. Senate Republicans will use the filibuster and attempt to embarrass and strong-arm turncoats such as McCain, Snow, and others into silence on key issues.

Look for South Carolina Senator Jim DeMint, Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions, and Oklahoma Senators Tom Coburn and James Inhofe to be at the forefront of the GOP maneuvering to stop any attempt to mandate ammo encoding, as well as several other key issues regarding our nation's survival.

Among conservatives look for South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham's stock to decline, given he has hitched his wagon a bit too often to McCain to set well with his conservative base. He will simply be bypassed as conservatives get serious about stopping the ultra-liberal bandwagon.

Codrea: Ammo Regs Mean Violation of Gun Rights

Let's cut right to the chase here, shall we? Ammunition regulations and/or bans are a form of gun bans. If you can't buy ammo for your firearm, then what good is it?

And this is exactly how the antis plan it. Without banning a single gun, they can render them useless by going after the ammunition.

David Codrea takes a look at this, and writes about an encounter he had on this issue some time ago, in today's Gun Rights Examiner.

Read it and pass it along to a friend.
