I see a lot of bad legislation headed down the federal pipe on this. The ATF is going to be used to ban the certain types of ammunition without having to do any legislation on gun control whatsoever. Sure you will still be able to buy the gun, but the ammo will become nonexistent. Isn't the ATF the same agency involved with the Fast and Furious debacle? We still don't have any clue as to what was going on with that.

Eric Holder: “The Obama administration will consider executive actions and specific proposals for legislation as part of its gun policy response to the school massacre in Newtown, Connecticut, U.S., Attorney General Eric Holder said on Wednesday,” per Reuters. “Those options will have to include a ‘strong and robust’ Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the chronically under-funded agency that enforces federal gun laws, he said.” Washington Examiner
