Breaking: New executive order "punishes" Russia by punishing us.

Like we didn't see this coming. From TTAG: http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/201...s-importation/

The President has issued an executive order to punish Russia for its Machiavellian machinations in Crimea. Click here to read. Section 1. (a) All property and interests in property that are in the United States, that hereafter come within the United States, or that are or hereafter come within the possession or control of any United States person (including any foreign branch) of the following persons are blocked and may not be transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in . . . (B) to operate in the arms or related materiel sector in the Russian Federation.” Our legal eagle Chris Dumm reckons this Executive Order locks-up the assets and freezes the operations of Russian arms dealers, which could well stop the importation of Russian guns, firearms components and ammunition into the United States. Stand by for more information.

I would like to respond to this with more profanity than all of Martin Scorcese's movies and all the gangsta rap ever recorded, but that would get me banned forever. All I can say is watch Tula and Wolf ammo skyrocket in price and become as scarce as hen's teeth!

I'd like to post more, but I got 3 walmarts to stop at right now.

I'm glad I shoot that cheap 5.56 stuff.

Don't worry, that j@ckass still has plenty of ink in his pen.

I checked the original. And while it DOES state the arms sector (why isn't it avionics for fuck's sake?), the EO applies it only to people and doesn't say anything about banning the importation.

I also find the whole this EO ordeal highly unconstitutional, since people (as much as I despise those Putin's asskissers) were stripped of certain rights and assets WITHOUT DUE PROCESS. HELLO????

This makes me very angry considering Russia produces the only affordable poison bullets for my AK-74.

^^^I am sick of our limp noodle president punishing us with his executive orders.


(Just ordered two more cases of 5.45.)
