It doesn't have to be a "tax" since that will have to come though Congress.
Obama CAN raise the "fees" under the rules and regulations of ammo and power.
Remember the "hazmat fees"?? He can simply raise them. Plus the lose power we order for reloading comes with a hazmat fee to have it shipped to our homes. Well he can change the rules to incule the power inside the factory bullets to come under those same fees shipped to ammo business in which they will pass it on to us in higher prices. Since it's not a "tax" he does not need Congress. Say before all this started a round of factory ammo cost 30 cents a round, add a "new hazmat fee" of 40 cents a round and the new price is now 70 cents a round of ammo. This covers ALL ammo, centerfire rifles, rimfire rifles, handguns and shotgun ammo. What's to stop him???

Ain't the ammo tax only like .10 cents now? Is this proposal just 50% more to that? If so...not a big deal.

Stock up guys!!!! That's where they gonna get us. I don't think they are going to get our guns, just make the ammo so that we can't afford it. Buy some Russian ammo from sportsman connection.

I'm paying 40% of our income to taxes. Not to mention state sales taxes...not to mention road taxes, fuel taxes, or other BS taxes...I'm lucky if I get to keep 30% when its all said and done... the American dream is fastly becoming the American nightmare. We will be a third world country where wars break out in no time at the rate our pos president and congress is taking us down...

A increase in taxes is ALWAYS a big deal. This is what is wrong with this [censored] country now. To many people say well is not a big deal...to many people say it doesn't affect me so I don't care. To many people are ready to just bow down and kiss feet...not me! It pisses me off everyday! And I make my voice heard everyday. It's all I can do legally.
