Wasn't this the rumor from 10 years ago that started the run on primers? Then people forgot about it until Obama.

I think the idea is unconsitutional.  I believe it violates the Second Ammendment, and it needs to be clobbered.

Well--yeah.  So does the NFA of 1936, the GCA of 1968, Brady Bill, etc.  The problem is, what part of "shall not be infringed" don't people understand?  People don't understand the difference between a "right" and a "privilege."  People don't understand (or even read) the Federalist Papers or other political discussions of the day, such that they might know the motivation and wisdom of our nation's founders.  The People today also permit the elite in power to convince them that only the privileged, dressed in black robes in their lofty ivory towers, are qualified to interpret the Constitution.  Hogwash!  Any citizen with an open mind, and perhaps an old Webster can understand the text--it was written for "The People," after all.

I'm certain that, if put to a public vote (put to mob rule), the Second Amendment would not survive a referendum today and, given that the Founders wisely made the Constitution difficult to amend, people have simply chosen to ignore it. 

Our nation was founded at the height of the "age of reason."  Society has fallen far from this pinnacle!

The second ammendment provides the right to own guns, not the right to buy ammo or reloading supplies. Guess we will all have a bunch of useless wall hangers here soon.

They had this idea floating around back when slick willie was in office. Talked with people in the industry at Camp Perry and silhouette match's years ago. Idea is a flop. Notice the patent was applied for in 1995, by a couple of professors from the U. of So.Cal. That should tell you something right there. Buy your primers as you wish. This is a bunch of hogwash. gypsyman

Yea it was the same thing that started the primer scare of the 80s.

It is all B S.
The ammo mfgs have stated that there is no current knowledge of how to make a primer that has a limited shelf life.

If stored properly, either by it's self or as a componet of a cartridge will last well past 40 years.

I still have some turn of the 19th-20th century ammo that will still fire.
That's over 100 years.

Maybe someday but not right now!

Thanks, Charlie.  If you've not found it yet, "Dirt Rhodes Scholar" is one of my favorite blog sites.  Stewart Rhodes also writes an excellent column, "Enemy at the Gate" in S.W.A.T. magazine.

Alan, I'm pretty sure you forgot to add the ;) at the end of your post. ;)  Of course guns are not "arms" if the citizenry and associated "militia" doesn't have ammo.  To be armed, one must also have ammo.  Without ammo, guns are just big paper weights.  The right to manufacture, buy, posses, and bear, ammo is implicit in the Second Amendment too.  I don't need to dress in a black robe and "work" in an ivory tower to know this one, either!

Oops, meant to edit my post but I mis-clicked and I can't figure out how to delete my error.  Oh well, guess I'll have to use this space for something else that's useful.  How about a plug for the Appleseed project:
