Proposed Federal House Legislation HB2715

this is an anti-gun bill   evalutation

An effort to prohibit ammunition purchases by "prohibited persons" while still not addressing the flaws in who is prohibited and who is not. Also will be nothing but a burden to the law abiding, adding financial cost beyond the purchase price of ammunition, and backlogging the background check systems (which are failing) even further.
