This video highlights a significant, under-discussed issue: the widespread use of RFID tags in ammunition by manufacturers, shipping companies, the US military, law enforcement, and even governments. The primary drivers are inventory management, security, logistics, and accountability. The speaker warns that this tracking capability means stolen ammunition, which is a substantial problem, could potentially be traced, especially if acquired through unofficial channels or from sources known to buy used or questionable inventory. Consumers are advised to be aware of where they purchase ammunition, particularly if it's from pawn shops or gun stores that might acquire it from individuals, and to consider the possibility of RFID-tagged ammunition being present in their own inventory, especially if acquired recently.
