LYC: I just had a client call up asking how he could go about setting up a factory for producing ammunition for firearms...

Posted by Walt_Disney (aka Walt_Disney) Jun 25 '09, 11:33

I can not even see my City actually allowing that to be made here even if he could get approval from the Federal Government.

And not even 10 minutes later, a client walked in wanting to know how to start up a business working with autistic kids. I gave a lot more time to her. I would much rather have a business that saves lives than takes them any day.

    - Like the President of the US has that ability....I dont think any President will be able to do anything about guns anymore - Walt_Disney Jun 25, 12:29 2

      - He sets the tone, for one, and the idea that the consitution protects an individual right to arms is a fairly recent one. - znufrii Jun 25, 12:34
  - Some people are afraid of new restrictions on purchasing guns, so they think they are getting ahead of the curve -- nm - Roger More Jun 25, 12:17
- there's been such an ammo shortage that police departments have cut back on firing range practice -- nm - zeitgeist Jun 25, 12:07 5
  - here's an article about it -- (link) - znufrii Jun 25, 12:19 1
    - as is often the case, similar stories were out there 2 or more years ago and Bush was to blame not Obama at the time. -- nm - zork Jun 25, 12:26

      - links on this search don't seem to support any real or new shortage that has reduced training -- (link) - zork Jun 25, 12:24

    - Thats not a small business!!! :P And I am sure that most is made for the US and has to be approved through CCC -- nm - Walt_Disney Jun 25, 12:13 1
      - There are small businesses too, even companies with 10-12 employees. All part of the supply chain -- nm - Roger More Jun 25, 12:18
    - IIRC, Litton in the Ottawa area designed the guidance system for cruise missiles. -- nm - zork Jun 25, 12:08 1
