Midway: No LEO Mag & Ammo if civilans are banned from owning

Monday, February 18, 2013

Several MIDWAYUSA members received a email explaining their existing policy relating to police sales in states that have a ban on civilian ownership. It is quiet a huge deal because they are the number one site for gun owners to get anything for their firearms relating to Firearm Parts, Shooting, Reloading, Gunsmithing and Hunting. I sent a request asking their policy and received the same email as well.

Currently, there are several parts of the country that have restrictions on civilian ownership of certain magazines or types of ammunition. Sometimes it is entire states and sometimes local municipalities pass these regulations, which I consider unconstitutional. At any rate, when we encounter these situations it has always been our policy not to sell to anyone in these areas, regardless of what law enforcement or government credentials they offer up. If the laws change and all law abiding citizens can buy these products we would be happy to sell to Law Enforcement, but not before then. Thanks for taking the time to be involved. I wish all firearms would follow your lead.

Simply gun owners need support these sites that hold this position when they are needing gear/parts and equipment. I am not saying go out now and buy from their site, I am just saying remember who really supports your rights verse sites that have no problem supporting those who enforce laws that ban those same items from honest gun owners.

Once again, if there is a dollar to be made, another company will fill the need for these gun parts.

Imagine no nuts with guns

Crossbows penetrated medieval armor quite handily.
Next: A ban on armor piercing arrows!!

Idiots.

USSC - US v Miller - 1939

"In the absence of any evidence tending to show that possession or use of a 'shotgun having a barrel of less than eighteen inches in length' at this time has some reasonable relationship to the preservation or efficiency of a well regulated militia, we cannot say that the Second Amendment guarantees the right to keep and bear such an instrument."

The Court also looked to historical sources to explain the meaning of "militia" as set down by the authors of the Constitution:

"The significance attributed to the term Militia appears from the debates in the Convention, the history and legislation of Colonies and States, and the writings of approved commentators. These show plainly enough that the Militia comprised all males physically capable of acting in concert for the common defense. 'A body of citizens enrolled for military discipline.' And further, that ordinarily when called for service these men were expected to appear bearing arms supplied by themselves and of the kind in common use at the time."

To sum up, it hits where You aim once sighted in, is inexpensive, has plenty of "bone crushing" power and should easily do the job with a proper arrow for Your purpose.

Not at all it clearly shows more and more company's are showing their support for our rights, that they will restrict the ability of the police to have the same weapons that the law they are told to enforce bans from honest gun owners.

#9 You are a dreamer, and the fact that you are not the only one is a sad tale of ignorance that is reproduced all across the country.

Do you really believe that no murder would take place if there were no guns?

This is a great trend. Hopefully soon gun manufacturers will refuse to sell firearms anywhere in the USA.
