I received 1000 rounds of CI .22lr HV (1250 ft/sec) In the mail today.
These are copper plated 40 gr. bullets.
I've been lead to believe that CI is an Aquila brand.
It just occurred to me that it is very strange that:
1. I'm buying ammunition made in a country where firearms are almost totally outlawed.
2. If I were to cross the border into that country with ONE round of that ammo in my vehicle I would probably end up in prison.

Four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, ammo - use in that order.
If you aren't part of the solution, then you obviously weren't properly dissolved.

Ironic, isn't it? Like how the largest AK dealer in the country (Atlantic Firearms) is in Maryland. Where AK's are illegal.
