MGA proposing lead ammo ban for hunting

[BigCountry14]

Looks like MD finally jumped on the "Ban lead ammo" train. Senator young proposing lead ammo phase out by 2026. SB0983.

Personally, I generally try to limit lead use where I can, but there's really no alternative for some of my ammo.

What? But I thought lead-free ammo is so super-deadly killier that it needed to be named and restricted in the FSA 2013...

 

[slsc98]

There is no limit to how low (or sideways) any in MD will go -

- ANYthing to avoid actually prosecuting and incarcerating actual criminals!!!

Don't they have better things to worry about?

Anything they can do to add expense.

Yep. It's about making your rights too expensive to exercise. I've already bought all-copper bullets to reload for my wife. She hunts at Blackwater and elsewhere.

California East. Sure as sunrise. Just like clockwork.

Farmers who have hunters on crop damage permits should rise up with their pitch forks on this one.

Such as?

Genuinely curious.

I’m just going to paint my hunting ammo with copper colored fingernail polish.

FUDD alert!

Well my .450 Marlin for one. It's hard enough to get that as it is in lead.

 

[BigCountry14]

FUDD alert!

Who's the FUDD in this case?

 

[jc1240]

Let them. When the deer population is out of control because people don't spend the money on expensive or non-existent ammo, they can reap what they have sown by way of their Lexuses, Audis, etc going crunch.

Understood.

Hopefully more manufactures start coming online with lead free ammo in the other calibers.

I can get it for my .350 legend, and my .22LR. Shotguns obviously been lead free for a long time. All of which is what I primarily use for hunting.

 

[RFBfromDE]

Who's the FUDD in this case?

Same as always.

The ones who think their hunting rights will not be violated provided they play along with semi-auto bans.

Maybe they will get a grasp of what's going on.

Mebbe.

Would that be anybody specific?
