Man..
I was having a p.m. discussion with a friend in the Netherlands about accurate powders when he mentioned he couldn't just pick up a pound and give it a try.
I thought about that for a minute.
and asked.
they are regulated to 3Kg of powder on hand at any one time.
think about that....
6.5 lbs of powder is all they are allowed to have on the shelf in their house.
now my first reaction to that was, how would they know?
but he is generally on top of things and he is regulated and he just said 'they'll know".
which brought back a memory about another interweb friend that mentioned he had to go buy some factory ammo that afternoon.
I for sure knew he reloaded and cast his own bullets.
so once again I asked
his response was.
the police sent him a letter telling him that he was behind in the mount of ammo he needed to purchase to keep his club membership open.
a club membership allowed him to own several of the guns he had and if he lost the membership he would lose the privilege of owning those fire-arms.
we moan and groan about not being able to get this or get that and the price is going up blah blah.
but fail to see exactly where all of this is slowly leading us.
now I don't want this to be a political discussion but I would like everyone to take a moment and think about how good we do have it right now compared to just about every single other place on this planet.
