    I*ve already seen an unfamiliar ammo brand show up at a local shop. They got in 10k rounds of 9mm made by Sarsilmaz in Turkey.

    And people have to remember, it's not the president who sets country policy, but congress. the latter wants our guns... badly. they know it's our last resort to stop them.

    There are other factors, also. What many ammunition consumers don*t realize is that each firearm manufactured must be function fired and proof tested. That requires ammunition, too. Much of Black Hills* product is dedicated to feeding the firearms industry, we*re told.

    *If a gun company can*t test their guns,* Hoffman said, *they can*t ship them. We have an obligation to them and when, all of the sudden, they need two to three times as much ammo as what was planned for, it*s a challenge.*
    Are you aware of how many non functional guns have been sold in recent years? We are the beta testers.
