That is almost certainly not a Jefferson quote or even anything from that period. People didn't speak that way. More like how a modern person with a low-quality education would speak. I'd have to see an original source before believing that to be a Jefferson quote. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Quote HistoryQuoted: What do you find incorrect about the grammar or general construction of that sentence? IMO, the meaning comes across quite clearly and AFAIK, that is the ultimate test of any thought put to pen and paper. Falsely attributing something doesn't help a discussion on any topic. |

Sad to see, but I expect more of it. We have a whole lot of companies that seem fine with supplying police and military but wish to limit what the honest law abiding tax payer can spend their money on, even thought their tax dollars are what buy the police and military their stuff. Some of the people around me never bought hst or anything similar by the case. They thought 20 rds for 20 bucks was the normal price. Some of em don't even care that they could have saved money, and now will be unable to save money perhaps.  Attached FileWonder what their explanation would be for this restriction? |

Pretty standard. No one takes medication or ammunition back either. Not surprised armor is in the same boat. |

Wonder if it has anything to do with insurance renewals?
Edited to add I know anyone can buy the 20rd boxes if they will pay the price but wondering if they feel x exposure is reasonable and enforcing this will lower their concerns on exposure? |

20 rd boxes are hardly socially responsible from an environmental perspective.
More packing material/wasted tree/plastic. Seems more like an excuse to jack up the price. |

I'm sitting on roughly 900 rounds.
Should last me the rest of my life, provided I quit my routine of running 100 rounds through a newly bought carry pistol to test.

Was there a rebate for the HST purchased through October 2018? Link?
I found another order from 10/24 and the current rebate page isn't actively listing one prior to Nov 1 2018. I doubt they'll let 8 days slide. TIA |

Anyone seen whether or not the Federal rebate covers 50rd. boxes of HST ?
Or are we thinking only the 20rd. boxes .. |

Found a place that isn't local to where I live, but isn't too far away from where I work as long as I go between morning and afternoon rush hours that will sell me HST in the 50-round boxes. $27. Used to be $18 (still says that online, but shows out of stock; they bump up prices for local CA buyers like a number of vendors here now. The 9mm 124-grain that I use (standard P) was the only one not in the display case (not even labeled there), but when I asked they said that they had gotten several cases in that morning. I should be able to get as much as I need. The only thing that had a LEO restriction label on it was Ranger T.

Nothing on the current rebate says anything about excluding 50 round boxes. I am turning one in on Gold Dot.

The places that are selling without LEO req's all seem to have a lowest price of 29.95. In the Q&A for 124gr on TargetsportsUSA they say that is the lowest price Vista will let them sell at.

Underwood makes a +P 9mm load using the Gold Dot bullet that is pretty much an identical duplicate to the Speer offering. It doesn't come in 50 round boxes, but the 20 round boxes it does come in are a bit more reasonably priced ($15.99) than the 20 round ass rape packages Speer offers at $20+. If I can't get a decent line on the LE 50 round boxes in the future, I'll probably just start buying Underwood as a "fuck you" to the Vista assholes. Remington Golden Saber would be a nice option as well if it wasn't for their shitty quality control.
