The ATF drops proposal to ban AR-15 ammunition

  The Obama regime had planned on using the ATF to ban the most popular round of ammunition in the United States, however it is now being reported that due to the huge response of the American people the ATF has dropped the idea–at least for now.

  Here is more:

“Although ATF endeavored to create a proposal that reflected a good faith interpretation of the law and balanced the interests of law enforcement, industry, and sportsmen, the vast majority of the comments received to date are critical of the framework, and include issues that deserve further study,” an ATF press release states (emphasis mine). “Accordingly, ATF will not at this time seek to issue a final framework. After the close of the comment period, ATF will process the comments received, further evaluate the issues raised therein, and provide additional open and transparent process (for example, through additional proposals and opportunities for comment) before proceeding with any framework.”

  Every once in awhile the good guys win one and this is one such case but the battle is not over. The ATF is going to “study” this issue more before proceeding, this does not mean the ATF is dropping the proposal altogether so we must keep vigilant.
