they don't ever give up, they chip a little each time, they are willing to wait for what they want.

What he said ^^^^^

Yesterday the Senate released a copy of the letter they are sending to the ATF. It appears that both
Sen. Sasse and Sen. Fischer signed the letter.

It basically states that when LEOPA was passed it exempted ammo used for
sporting purposes and the the ATF does not have the authority to ban M855.
Don't forget to thank your Senators for doing their job.

I wonder if some guy at the ATF had a bunch of M855 he wanted to sell on armslist.

While many organizations are celebrating the putative victory in relation to the ATF’s announcement of earlier today that it would “not at this time seek to issue a final framework”, Firearms Industry Consulting Group (FICG), a division of Prince Law Offices, P.C., would caution our viewers and the Firearms Industry that ATF can likely, at any time, seek to move forward with a final framework without any further notice or comment.
