No. I've heard no such thing.

Some guy at work is telling me that he is seeing things on the web and has heard from his father that gun powder will soon be manufactured in such a way that after 6 months it will no longer ingnite. I told him he was full of shit. I am going to ask him where he is seeing this and I will post.

It was talk like that in regards to primers in 1994 that caused a HUGE run on primers. They doubled in price and were sold out everywhere for quite a while. Doubt there is anything to it.....same as back in 1994.
