    I physically get a sick feeling in my stomach when I read stuff like this. Ban guns and bullets but allow violence on TV and video games.

    The violence on Tv and video games isn't the problem. It's the parents, bad upbringing, psycho medicines, and just a general wanting to make a scene for some to do stupid things to get attention and use a gun to do it.

    All online sources of the stuff are now out of stock. Midway is the only one even taking backorders.

    With it gone, the regular 55gr stuff will also rise in cost I bet. Hoarding has begun...check the gun broker prices for green tip already! !!:bug:

    I bought up my local source of pulled green tips. 6 cents each. 2500 count. I'll probably put em on gun broker for some fool to give me 5 times that or more.

    It ticks me off to no end that the government is getting doing this. That being said, I've never had any desire to own greentip, I'd much rather stock up on regular ball ammo.

    This is what happens when you have people making laws that have no idea what they are doing.:confused:

    They know exactly what they are doing. First they'll start with ammo like this that is useless for all practical purposes and very few people actually buy. Next might come something like a ban on tracer ammo, with the logic being that civilians don't really need that either, and such a small percentage actually buy it there will be few people complaining about that either. I'm sure this guy would LOVE to executive order a ban on M193, but there'd be a HUGE blowup over that!

    They really are not smart enough to know what they are doing.
