Ammunition Accountability Legislation

[Fullabull]

I don't know if this has already been posted here but I thought everyone might want to know what states are planning on doing to us gun owners!   

Nobody can sell any ammunition after June 30, 2009
 
         It has already started....
 
         Ammunition Accountability Legislation
 
         Remember how Obama said that he wasn't going to
 take your guns? 
 
         Well, it seems that his allies in the anti-gun
 world have no problem with taking your ammo!
 
         The bill 20 that is being pushed in 18 states
 (including Illinois and Indiana ) requires all ammunition to be encoded by the manufacture a data base of all ammunition sales. So they will know how much you buy and what calibers.
 
         Nobody can sell any ammunition after June 30, 2009
 unless the ammunition is coded.
 
         Any privately held un coded ammunition must be
 destroyed by July 1, 2011.  (Including hand loaded ammo.) 
 
         They will also charge a .05 cent tax on every round so every box of ammo you buy will go up at least $2.50 or more!
         If they can deprive you of ammo they do not need to take your gun!
 
 ----------------------------------------------------------
         This legislation is currently pending in 18 tates:
   
         Alabama, Arizona ,  California ,  Connecticut ,
 Hawaii , Illinois ,Indiana, Ken tucky , Maryland ,  Mississippi , Missouri , New Jersey, New York , Pennsylvania , Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee , and Washington .

Does this also having anything to do with the shortage of ammunition happening now? I tried to buy some rounds for my XD and most of the stock at the gun store was depleted. I was only able to get two boxes

This has been posted before.

There are no active bills in the State of WA, and it didn't make any ground in 2008.  It was not submitted in 2009, when I last checked.

his legislation has not passed in any state thus far. 

The web-site you posted was the effort of the 2008 push for this legislation.

I wasn't able to find a current bill at the Congressional level either.  Here is the web-site for that search, as it is possible that it is worded in a way that my search did not pull.  http://thomas.loc.gov/

From what I understand there is one company that can provide this service, and even the federal government hasn't wanted to give one company the monopoly rights to track ammunition.

Thanks Wacher...

I didn't want to scare anyone, someone else brought this to my attention so I wanted to pass it on. Glad to hear that there is not legislation for this in the current year.

NW_Bowhunter, ammo is going because people believe Obama is sooner or later take a stab at gun control, so people are stock piling

WRONG!

Whoever is passing around this bad info has to stop. It doesn't help our cause, it raises ammo prices and generally makes us all look like idiots.
