The BATFE asked for feedback from citizens about the proposed ban of M855 5.56mm ammo (the type used by AR15s).  Apparently, they received over 80,000 calls/emails AGAINST the ban.  www.ammoland.com/201 5/03/obama-forced-to -waive-white-flag-on -proposed-ammo- had sent in an email and I wrote to Sen. John Cornyn on this issue.  I have found Sen. Cornyn to be responsive (or at least his staff is) to emails.  Over the years, I have written Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison, Sen. Ted Cruz, and Rep. Ted Poe.  Senator Cornyn is the only one to, not only respond, but actually take action for me. 4951

And of course, people that stocked up on M855 ammo after the prices had skyrocketed are now trying to sell their ammo to recoup some of their money.  Dummies!  You gambled and lost.  Just keep it and shoot it.  If stored properly, ammo will keep for 50 years or more. 4951

The proposed ban was just another liberal feel-good measure; right up there with removing the pistol grip from assault style weapons. 4951

I know I saw this and it is great especially hearing how 60 Senators came forward to take action against this. 4951

@Retired_Engineer: I had my m855 supply since Y2K.
