I wouldn't read to much in to that, I was in the industry in 1994 and worked for one of the top 2 importers of ammo and surplus companies. I remember leading up to it the statistics showed that almost a 10 year supply of guns and ammo was purchased in less than a year. The awb, magazine ban and a few other things were passed. It took a law suit to get our products that were in transit (on the water) to be allowed in the country. If it were not for the Fair Trade Group, NSSF and a few other groups those products would of never got here.
