Subject: Government buying out all the 5.56 Military surplus ammo and is telling ammo dealers to stop selling to their vendors and civilians.

I have been calling allot of ammo distributors and ALL of them are telling me that our government is all the 5.56-.223 cal military surplus ammo. And their also telling the ammo distributors stop selling the ammo to civilians and their vendors because the government is buying it all up from everyone they can. I have also spoken with theses ammo dealers and they told me that the 5.56 and .223 ammo is going way up in price.

For instance...I paid $149.00 for federal surplus 440 rounds of steal core and now at the gun show today it was selling for $440.00 for 420 rounds. I have checked and ALLOT of places online are out of the Military surplus ammo by federal. M193 and M855 SS109 ammo. I did find one place still carrying both these ammo's and good prices still, but their the only place I could find. If interested let me know and Ill forward the info.

I was also told by the same ammo dealers that the government is going to buy all the 9mm and .45 ammo up, so hurry and buy while you can at the lower prices while still available. Guess if they won't take our guns because they figure that there are some many out there, they will just buy all most popular military calibers. Can't shoot a gun with no ammo...stock up now while you still can.


They also said the government will continue to purchase all the ammo through the presidential election and they will continue to until the president tells them to stop. And if obama gets reelected instead of rejected, you know he wont stop the purchasing of all the ammo mentioned above.

Just thought you would want to know.

GOB,

This sounds like the early 1990s "anonymous tip" that the gummint was going to demand BIODEGRADEBLE PRIMERS with a shelf-life of a year or less to prevent hoarding. According to that tip, only the police and military would have GOOD Primers with years of shelf life. The result: A BIG run on primers and gun stores ran out, or LIMITED sales to ONE 100-primer tray per gun store visit. It was BS!

This government KNOWS the benefit of CONTROL over OWNERSHIP! There is no need to buy up all .223 ammo if the gummint says it is contraband BY EXECUTIVE ORDER! This gummint buy up of ALL .223 ammo is horse pucky!
