    Appears UTM training ammo is now banned by our Faux legislators at the ATF. Appears they are not going to let off? How many times do they need to get struck down in court?

    I'm going to estimate something over 85% of readers could use this link to understand what is going on (UTM brand, made in UK, ATF banned from import for non-LE/mil):

    I guess I missed your point? But none the less everyone states Gun Owners need more training right? Not saying I am condoning their position. But for sake of Debate both anti and pro Gun say Training is important. So where is the problem ? Why take something away that is very important for FOF training.

    Because it allows civilians to learn FOF training. Can’t have that.

    What is it you would have wanted Jim Jordan and Congress to do?
    Reminds me of a point in History where I studied that it was said We need the House before we can do anything, then it was we only have the House not the Senate yet, then well we only have congress and the senate we need the the Presidency , then they did nothing with all three coequal branches .
    IRC the most worthless speaker of the house was Paul pos Ryan.

    wcd, I just meant without more context I did not think a lot of folks would be familiar with UTM versus the better known Simmunitions, and that is was useful to know ATF was going after this apparently as a US import issue given it is produced in the UK.

    In total agreement with you it is completely unjustifiable. I see absolutely no possible reason in the function of this ammo, or any basis in law, for ATF or any other agency of the US government to restrict import of this ammo.

    Just a clarification, the house and senate make up Congress one of the coequal branches with the Presidency and the courts being the other two…
    Those three to the general public, are vertually unknown.
    Ive asked folks many times that want to talk politics, I will ask
    What are the three branches of the federal government?
    14 out of 15 get a blank look on there face.
