Only going to get worse if the Dems get more control.
Better start stocking some powder
I don't think it is going to make a whole lot of difference actually...
"ATF was recently asked about the status of
nitrocellulose under the Federal explosives
laws and regulations. “Nitrocellulose explosive”
is on ATF’s List of Explosive Materials. ATF has
determined that nitrocellulose containing greater than
12.6 percent nitrogen is a high explosive under 27 CFR,
Part 555 (nitrocellulose containing 12.6 percent or less
nitrogen is generally not an explosive material under
Part 555). Therefore, it must be stored in a type 1 or type
2 magazine. We are aware that the U.S. Department of
Transportation may assign a nonexplosive classification
to nitrocellulose when it has been wetted with water or
alcohol. This is based, in part, on the diminished likelihood
of explosion in a transportation accident. Because
the nitrocellulose retains its explosive characteristics
when the water or alcohol is removed, the wetted nitrocellulose
remains a nitrocellulose explosive, subject to
the licensing, safety and security requirements of the
Federal explosives regulations. However, based upon the
diminished likelihood of wetted nitrocellulose exploding,
ATF will consider variance requests to store the wetted
material under an alternative arrangement"
Supposedly it is already stopped

"While the addendum doesn’t indicate that ATF has permanently abandoned this change to nitrocellulose regulation, smokeless powder manufacturers will be permitted to continue normal operation, at least for the time being."
They don't want the bad PR until after the election. If Hillary gets in the "at least for the time being" will expire.
I really like being permitted to continue normal things. Makes me feel all warm an fuzzy.
