Wow.....I can't believe how many people on here have the views they have. It's kinda nice to get to really know some of you!
I don't think anyone has mentioned this yet, so I'll try. I see many people wishing for more restrictions, saying people are buying up powder and resale on Gunbroker. From what I understand, it would be tough to legally ship powder...so there already is a law in place to prevent this. Seems to me you should be demanding your government enforce laws that we have, not looking to add more. This is a classic view of a segment of our population, we already have many, many laws to prevent gun violence that cover any situation you can think of but often they are not enforced. I mean if you are willing to break what I would consider the highest law of murder, what other law would stop you?
I'm confused....by some of the people here....
So if I have powder that I can LEGALLY ship, I should sell it cheap so someone else can resale it higher? Be grouchy at the people actually paying that much, and agencies that are not enforcing laws if it's actually the case of people buying/selling without shipping license causing it. Otherwise it's pretty simple supply and demand. Look on Ebay, people are paying $100-$250 for HORNADY reloading dies.......Its the PEOPLE BUYING causing the problem. I just put together a die set on Midway by buying individual dies for far cheaper than what they are selling for on Ebay. We are a society of instant gratification and people will pay whatever it takes to get it NOW.
