UG, it is just sterotyping, guns and ammo are highly regulated and sex toys can be purchased anywhere.

I'd really like to buy an M1 Garand this summer (to shoot semi frequently not as a collector's item), but have heard that .30-06 ammunition is fairly scarce and relatively expensive. Is this true in your experiences?

Well, I think know for a fact that gun purchasing is WAY up and there was a huge spike right before Obama was sworn in. I think that it has all gone down a bit but it remains higher than usual. Now ammo is another area that has really taken a hit. IMHO a bigger hit than new gun purchases. You cannot find 7.62x39 anywhere and if you do it is twice what it cost in Nov 08. The thing about .30-06 is that it remains a hunting round so you will always get it but it will cost. And for plinking surplus or bulk ammo is much cheaper.
Look at page one and then slip to page 5 and after where the cheaper ammo was sold. http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/ItemL...3&pagenumber=1 A thousand rounds of 7.62x39 use to be $200, now here it is $499. http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/Searc...m=10&q=7.62x39 Why?

I don't know where you get your information from but your last source is incorrect. There is no sex toy ban in Georgia, which automatically makes the rest of the information suspect.

From the link

I've tried to research this on the web, and it's confusing. There are lots of news references to the Georgia Ban, but nothing that gives you the actual law. The closest I could find that links to the actual law is a legal article saying the law had been overturned in 2006 in This That and the Other Gift v. Cobb County, Ga., No. 04-16419 (11th Cir. Feb. 15, 2006.)
And from the ruling in that case: Quote:

Let me clear this up for everybody. Sugarpop and I live in GA. I have lived here in 2 different cities since 1994. There never was and never has been a ban on the sale of sex toys of any kind since I have lived here and currently. The information is incorrect. Capiche?
I can't speak for the other states listed. Only for GA. |

I just quoted the law for you. It was on the books. O.C.G.A. § 16-12-80 |

a very quick search finds this: http://www.law.com/jsp/article.jsp?id=1143120308045 http://www.metrospirit.com/index.php...22910083496451 |
Coweta County, GA enacted a new ordinance this year.
The obscenity ordinance prohibits sale or distribution of obscenity, and prohibits anyone from “knowingly” selling, or possessing with the intent to sell, “any device designed or marketed as useful primarily for the stimulation of human genital organs.” The county’s old ordinance specifically exempted condoms from being considered as a stimulation device. The new ordinance makes no such distinction, and would appear to apply to items such as ribbed condoms and various lubricants marketed as having a “warming” or “tingling” sensation.... A violation is punishable by up to six months in jail and/or a fine of up to $1,000. http://www.times-herald.com/Local/Co...dinance-646015 |
It will be an ongoing process of people making local ordinances and business owners getting a stay or injunction while appealing to the courts. I guess that is the way it is suppose to work. In the mean time all of the things are still readily available. But you know we still have a few dry counties in GA.
