Dalton Trumbo Pat Buchanan

USA – -(Ammoland.com)- “Dalton Trumbo was a socialist, but he loved being rich.”

So says Bryan Cranston, who stars in “Trumbo,” out this week, and plays the screenwriter who went to prison with the Hollywood Ten in the time of Harry Truman.

Actually, Trumbo was not a socialist. Bernie Sanders is a socialist. Trumbo was a Stalinist, a hard-core Communist when the Communist Party USA was run from Moscow by the Comintern, agents of...

Do You Patronize Businesses That Undermine Your Freedoms and Values? Kimberly Bloom Jackson

USA – -(Ammoland.com)- When my husband and I arrived at the door of a local restaurant that came highly recommended to us, we couldn’t believe our eyes.

On their door was the infamous “NO GUNS” sign. We looked at each other in disbelief. How could the owner of the restaurant be so stupid as to draw attention to an establishment full of unarmed customers?

Urge Support for HR 3802 the Alternative Ammunition Manufacturing Act of 2015

Thu, 11/05/2015 - 12:27
National Shooting Sports Foundation

Newtown, CT -(AmmoLand.com)- Under the Gun Control Act of 1968 (GCA), most ammunition made with alternative material is illegal to import, manufacture and sell unless the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) determines it is “primarily intended to be used for a sporting purpose.”

In recent years, a number of manufacturers have been working to develop and market new and innovative hunting ammunition comprised of a wide array of metals and alloys.  However, many of these cause the ammunition to fail a composition test set forth in the GCA which subjects the products to a ruling by the ATF on their intended use. As a result, at least 32 petitions have been submitted in recent years requesting exemptions for products clearly “intended for a sporting purpose.” Unfortunately, the ATF has given little indication as to when they will process...
