San Fransisco Bans Black Talon Ammunition...20 years after it's discontinued....

[OfficerObie59]

"One thing’s for certain: if you’re in San Francisco, or just passing through it, you had better cycle out your 20-year old self-defense loads for something less illegal.

For that matter, if you still have any Black Talons, you should put them in a box with your Members Only jacket and gasoline jeans and dispose of them safely. It’s time to let them go."

What a bunch of maroons.

Modern ammo is much more deadly than black talons.

Sadly, one of my co-workers wears a "Member's Only" jacket. We keep threatening him that we're going to send it to the Smithsonian.

He needs something to go with the parachute pants.

Thank you, tommorow's ball busting has been decided on . I'll ask him if he has parachute pants to go with his jacket. That, will get a lot of laughs from the guys on my team.

Isn't the Winchester Ranger T-Series ammo a spin off of that black talon ammo?

Yeah, but it's not black. Remember kids, only black stuff is scary.

I still have a full 20 round box of Black Talons in .45ACP
The last time I even saw any for sale was years ago at a gun show, and they were going for $1 a round.
Maybe I'll post it in the classifieds for $100 and see who bites.

Or karma to me for all that colt I gave you

But you can still walk naked thru the streets for gay pride.

I have a full box too, given to me by a NH Statey aquaintance of mine who has since retired and moved south somewhere. I'll let you sell yours first Z

You didn't have to google it. Just find a recent picture of Ahmadinejad. He's still wearing them.

From what I've read and seen, yes. With better modern tech.

I rep the Member's Only once in a while. Found it buried on a rack at Saver's: vintage, mint condition and all. Remember kids, modern MO jackets are for posers.

H&S has some Talons occasionally. My buddy wanted a box of the 9mm just as a curio, but they want too much $. Was the only 9mm on the shelf

Perhaps if politicians had some skin in the game...

Anyone read Shirley Jackson's short story "The Lottery"?

So we take the politicians who author the most dumb-ass legislation and have such a "lottery" every year.

I'll bet it would cut way back on BS laws...



Seriously... there are consequences in life for lots of bad behaviors. Speeding tickets, not paying taxes, hurting other people, etc.

What are the consequences for a bad politician??? Seems like it's called re-election...

I've got a few boxes squirreled away laughed when I read this.

My brother in law has them in his glock 10 mm ones he hasn't shot the gun in 10 years since he had his kids but he's bringing them to me so I can polish clean and lube them all up. Where going to be shooting together regularly and he's coming hunting with me this fall. I've successfully brought his mossy 500 his mini 14 his sks his glock whichever model is 10 mm gen 2 back to the light of day from pergatory.

What's this? For once in 11,000 posts I am finally right about something??? Derek, shut the site down to mark this moment in NES history.
