	 PROOF THAT WE HAVE SOME IDIOTS IN WASHINGTON
	
	
	 This is totally crazy and it should make you want to slap the hell
	 out of the idiots we have in Washington DC.
	
	 Georgia Arms is the 5th largest retailer of .223 Ammo in America .
	 They sell 9mm, .45, .223 ammunition. They normally buy spent brass
	 from the US Department of Defense. Spent brass is "one time used"
	 shell cases used by our Military for training purposes.
	
	 They buy the brass, recondition it, and then reload the brass for
	 resale to Law Enforcement, Gun Clubs, Gun Shops, and stores like
	 Wal-Mart. They normally buy 30,000 lbs of spent brass at a time.
	
	 This week the DoD wrote a letter to the owner of Georgia Arms and
	 informed him that from now on the DoD will be destroying the spent
	 brass, shredding it. It will no longer be available to the ammo
	 makers, unless they buy it in a scrap shredded condition (which
	 they have no use for).
	
	 The shredded brass is now going to be sold by the DoD to China as
	 scrap metal, after the DoD pays for it to be shredded. The DoD is
	 selling the brass to China for less money than the ammo makers have
	 been paying, plus the DoD has to pay to have the brass shredded and
	 do the accounting paperwork.
	
	 This sure helps the economy now doesn't it? Sell cheaper to China ,
	 and do not sell at all to a proven US business. Any hidden agenda
	 working here? Obama going after the Firearms Industry and our
	 ammunition!!
