While I think this is stupid, note that this is only banning them from using it in ADWORDS...title searches still shows up in the shopping results.
Example: search "300 AAC Blackout"
https://www.google.com/search?q=300+aac+blackout&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a#q=300+aac+blackout&hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=xpR&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&prmd=imvnsfd&source=lnms&tbm=shop&sa=X&ei=UufxT8_9MYjn0QHg5pj7Ag&ved=0CEQQ_AUoBQ&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_cp.r_qf.,cf.osb&fp=2ae34e358ae5ccc7&biw=1366&bih=611

Oh, never. Telling a company they have to include a certain product? That's big government no-no I don't want. (you can prevent them from including one competitor over another, but not forcing them to include an entire industry).

I'm more than happy to find a new search engine. Never been a fan of all the info google collects.

Interesting. Google expanding to get revenue from other sources. As far as the ban, it's currently only the ads. It still shows up in the shopping. Not that I really look for guns & ammo on Google shopping - I either go to a gun shop or to Cheaperthandirt.com

Nice. Although 34 cents a round is not that much better than the 36 cents a round you can get from cheaper than dirt for American Eagle 20-rd boxes.

Yes but bulk wise its the best deal for your money tho

Not by much in this case. And unfortunately I usually won't save up $4000 for ammo - I'd rather spend $250 here and there occasionally and save up for a better gun.

Well for me I can build 4 ar15 receivers for the price of one rifle and wouldnt have to go through a dealer either

And to find lake city ammo is becoming very scarce now days mostly due to military buying up every thing due to the switch over of companys running lake city so production won't start back up till later this year or next spring

Well recievers aren't what is super expensive - all the fancy EoTechs, Silencers, barrels, rail systems, and nice magpul hardware is for me.
