Surprise, I am not sending you a "stock" answer. Fish and Game Commission is NOT considering a Statewide ban of lead ammunition in California. The whole notion that started this conversation was a status report on the existing use of lead ammunition in the historic range of the condor, for mammal hunting. During this presentation members of the public are allowed to make comment, and a couple of animal rights people suggested to the Commission that they expand the ban of lead ammunition state wide. The Commission did not accept this suggestion. But the Commission does respect the rights of anyone to voice their free speech rights at any of their public meetings. This does not mean they agree.

Bob, I sent an Email to the Dept. of Fish and Game, and I was nice, I didn't go off like a raving lunatic, but i did say I was very opposed to the banning of lead ammo. They sent a reply which I will add down below. Makes for an interesting read, I wonder if they are trying to convince themselves there is not a lead ammo ban in the works or if they are trying to convince me. Larry B
