Lake City Ammo Plant Cancels All Commercial Contracts

https://stapledefense.com/lake-city-plant-commercial-contracts/

According to multiple news sources, the Lake City ammo plant has cancelled all of its commercial contracts.

This means that stores will no longer be able to purchase ammo from Lake City, which currently supplies 30% of the civilian market for 5.56 ammunition.

The Lake City ammo plant is owned by the US Government, but operated by Olin Winchester. Winchester produces ammo and sells it to the government.

When the facility is able to produce more ammo than the government requires, they sell it either to consumers or distributors.

Yep... Biden tried to make them cancel 5.56 sales to civilians to keep it out of our hands, and he was sued for it by multiple organizations. And now we've joined a war that isn't even our's just to launder money and gives them an excuse to cancel 30% of the civi sales market for 5.56 to give to those ass clowns over in the sandbox ammo, and keep it out of our hands, because they can. Biden and his ilk need to be removed from office for shit like this...Especially all the other shit they've pulled over the last 3 years.
