I'm getting alittle concerned and I'm thinking about picking up ammunition for guns I'm even thinking about buying in the future when I come across a good deal.
I've always said that banning guns will never work but if they found a way of limiting the ammunition supply you'd essentially ban guns.
Alot of the supply has disappeared because of concerns over gun bans and new ammo regulations. There's a bill circulating in Georgia state congress about requiring serial numbers stamped on the bottom of every cartridge. I believe there's a similar bill soon to go into the US congress. Don't know the bill numbers.
Obama's Attorney General was on TV last week and already stated that the administration wants to bring back the ban of '94 and make it permanent. They only want to tweak it a little. Let me give you an example of how they want to tweak it.
Cop-killer bullets. They want to ban them. Now before you say that they ought to be banned, understand their definition of cop-killer bullets. This isn't some super high-tech teflon coated round they are talking about. It's any cartridge capable of penetrating body armor. So that 30-06 that you have at home? Those cartridges won't be available any longer under the new ban.

Clearly the founding fathers meant ".. so long as those arms (fire arms) do not produce lethal injuries"
In other words, you can all keep your b-b guns.
"Hamilton is really a Colossus to the anti republican party. Without numbers he is an host within himself. They have got themselves into a defile where they might be finished but too much security on the republican part will give time to his talents and indefatigableness to extricate them. We have had only middling performances to oppose to him. In truth when he comes forward there is nobody but yourself who can meet him. His adversaries having begun the attack he has the advantage of answering them and remains unanswered himself. For God's sake take up your pen and give a fundamental reply to Curtius and Camillas" - Thomas Jefferson to James Madison
