According to the President of Goex the Fire at the Plant that has put it out of production for 3-6 months will not affect the supply chain... :-?

That is, unless the BATFE decides that continued production would not be in the better intrests of Homeland Security... :roll:

I doubt that this will happen, since even today one of the biggest users of black powder in the U.S. is Department of Defense! :-D

True, but then the BATFE doesn't regulate sales to the Govt, only sales to the peasants. They have already made it such a nightmare to store and sell black powder that most gunshops have dropped it entirely - leaving only internet sales.

Do you think they would hesitate for 30 seconds to stop non-government production if they felt it was in the "best interests" of Homeland Security?

There are only 5 viable producers of BP - and 4 are imports. Disallow importation and make Goex a Fed-Only concern. The BATFE could do it without even asking Congress.
