Backdoor attempt by anti-gunners to restrict firearms rights. Death by a
million cuts methodology.

There are alternatives to lead in ammunition, but it raises the cost
substantially. Common sense is
needed with this issue.

The common sense of not polluting the environment, or the common sense
that the EPA won't mess with the NRA in an election year?


the common sense that expended lead ammunition is not hazardous waste.

Apparently it is.

Apparently it is.

But not at the quantity that is being injected. By example the level of
lead from most industrial applications (coal slag being but one) is far in
excess than ammunition lead in the continental USA.

IF EPA was working on logic and not political agenda coal slag by itself
would be much more attention. Not sure but working from memory coal slag
has been getting little or NONE for near 10 years.
