Congressman Adrian Smith (R-NE) joined 238 colleagues in sending a letter to B. Todd Jones, Director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), seeking answers on ATF’s recent efforts to ban the production and sale of M855 ammunition.
“The most recent unilateral decision by the Obama Administration, this time to restrict Second Amendment rights, is deeply troubling,” Smith said. “M855 ammunition has always been rightfully exempt from bans due to its common, primary use by hunters and sportsmen for target shooting. This proposal by ATF distorts the law and opens the door for further violations of Americans’ constitutional rights. The letter to Director Jones expresses my opposition and requests answers in order to stop this egregious executive overreach.”
