No more military brass available

I've seen this posted on every gun forum I frequent and everyone gets their undies in a bunch over it. It's NOT new news. The original documentation was dated 1996 and the Army was "supposed" to be doing it.

Exposing the GovCrims pays off



Great news! It appears the destruction of military once fired brass has ended with a reversal of DoD policy.

Who says complaining does not pay off. (Refer back to last alert).

Please read the latest from the MSSA.........



Dear MSSA Friends,

I just received a phone call from the office of U.S. Senator Tester of Montana to inform me that at 5:15 (EST) today a letter cosigned by Senator Tester (D-MT) and Senator Baucus (D-MT) was faxed to the Department of Defense asking DoD to reverse its new policy requiring destruction of fired military cartridge brass. At 5:30, I am told, Tester's office received a fax back from DoD saying that the brass destruction policy IS reversed.

Others report to me that they are already seeing evidence of this on the Websites of entities that liquidate surplus DoD commodities.

Our thanks go out to Senator Tester and Senator Baucus, and their staff, for getting on this problem promptly and making the reversal happen

Staff for Tester and Baucus promise they will get me the documentation for this reversal tomorrow morning. I'll forward that when I get it.

Best wishes,

Gary Marbut, president

Dear Loyal Customers,

Thanks to your voice, DOD has rescinded the order to mutilate all spent cases as of 4:30 pm on 3/17/09. We appreciate the time and effort that you expended, together we all made a difference. We will be posting the email we received from DOD as well as any additional information within the next 12-16 hours. Thanks so much and lets get to work!!! Georgia Arms

I would bet that Georgia Arms is upset that it took from 1996 to 3/17/09 to GET THE WORD that this is old news
 
Hooray! I wrote to my two senators and my Congressman about this the other day. I haven't heard back from any of them, but I'm glad we had some senators step up to the plate and help defend our rights.

We must keep an very close eye for these kinds of things, especially with the current administration.
