EU Lead Ban

Post by GeneN »

The EU is proposing legislation that would not only ban lead, it would also effectively ban propelling any object out of a tube!

This could be the end of any target shooting as we know it. Shooters in the EU must act now to stop this insanity before it spreads across the world!

If the Irish Government can ban smoking in Pubs, then the EU could ban objects launched out of tubes!

*hehe*
Nice :)

(BTW, did you know that just after we banned smoking in pubs, a TD - the Irish equivalent of an MP, or House Representative - was caught breaking the ban in the member's bar in the Dail - our equivalent of the houses of parliment - and has now been thrown out of his party as a result? )
And that one's not an April Fool's joke.... :rolleyes:
