Lead ban!
« on: December 25, 2002, 08:28:21 AM »
You guys in the US of A have it good! Here in Sweden we are facing a complete lead ban for all ammo in a few years! Think of what that means; no more affordable shooting=less shooters=easier to ban the rest!

We also have a new ban on squirell hunting.....for no reason! There's no NRA over here and the hunters organizations do more harm than good with thier PC rhetoric.

I suspect that lead and copper bullet bans will be the next anti-hunting issue.  Article in todays SACRAMENTO BEE regarding lead killing condors in Southern Cal.  Not very good news for California Hunters.  :bird:

Funny thing is there is no market for a organisation like that! People in general, shooters, buy into every peice of PC rethoric trown at them! Some even think Sweden has liberal laws!

There is a "NRA" in Sweden too, but it's very small! And not very good...

Hey W. Tell, I was wondering, are you a member of the local (your countries') NRA if so may be it's time for leadership change.  I don't live where you live.   I'm probaly speaking out of turn. As POP always said " Boy have you walked in that Gentelmans shoes yet? If not shut up and just listen"
