Yeah i know what you mean, for quite a while there we were losing money reloading shotgun shells, but now it's becoming cost effective to do again.

As for lead, we get that free (Five gallon buckets of wheel weights from local auto shops.) and brass we order bulk. We have a SASS cowboy action range in our back yard so we get a lot of left over brass and shotgun shells from there which helps.

Not only have they not gun their guns back, their houses were looted and damaged during/after the storm. They have pretty much took their losses and insurance and got the hell out of there.

That was my wake up call...
That's terrible, I'm just thankful I live in an area where the majority of people would not stand for something like that.

You really believe "the government" is interested in taking your guns away?

You need to get away from the Internet!

And you sir need to open your eyes and stop watching network news, CNN and all the kool aid drinking news media out there.

If you think the Government has your best interest at heart you are the one that needs to rethink and do some research.

I'll pray for you just as I pray for the Big "O" every night.

I used to reload my shot gun shells years ago, but I also noticed it cost just the same to buy as it did reload. Maybe I should check up on prices and dust the ol re-loaders off.

I have a couple of shotguns and a rifle and I am not worried that Obama is going to take them away. The Constitution grants me the right to bear arms. End of story.

It is in Washington state's constitution that there will be no income tax.. but your buddies in Olympia are going to impose one. What do you think of that? You still trust big government not to change the constitution?

You are so misinformed it's not even funny.:o

There is no prohibition against an income tax in Washington State's Constitution. You have been lied to once again by anti-government conservatives right here in Washington State.

I feel for you. But if you want to show me where the Constitution of Washington State prohibits an income tax, be my guest. The full text is here:

It would be a cold day in hell before that would happen...

The main worry is revolvers, semi automatic pistols, assault rifles for the general public. This also includes magazine limitations.

As a gun enthusiast, I like the class III fire arms and destructive devices. Those are always under watch by "anti gun" crowd. All the laws do is keep us law abiding citizens enjoying freedom our grandfathers fought for, and making it only slightly harder for criminals to get guns illegally then they already were.

It's ridiculous you have to pay $25k+ for a 60's belt fed auto + a $200 tax stamp + a 3month+ wait. Thank you government for all your retarded regulations in keeping legal law abiding citizens from having the guns the criminal can illegally get across the border for $500!
I have several rifles/shotguns that I hunt with. I have a .357 Magnum for home protection and protection while hunting (depending on where I am.) I practice on a regular basis. I think I understand the opinion of wanting to keep our guns, but... umm... what in the world do you need a "belt fed auto" for? What ever happened to one shot one kill?

Why do we need houses more then 500 sqft?

Why do we need daily drivers with more then 60hp.

Why do need clothes with colors other then grey?

There are lots of things we don't need in this world. When you start asking the question, "why do you need...." a **** storm of things can happen.

The point is, I don't need one. I want one. They are fun as hell to shoot and honestly help me relax.

Belt fed auto aint nothing btw.... Fully operational tanks and rocket launchers is where it's at. And yes, those are legal currently if you follow the right protocol.

There are a few transferable mini guns out there also... The last one that I know that transferred hands was sold in Austin by an acquaintance of mine for $250,000... Not to mention then you have to feed it ammo...At 6000rds a minute you need a lot.

Just don't put my life in danger or try and steal any of my property and you shouldn't have any worries.
