So long Wolf and Red Army Standard. Would be nice if Biden just hurried up and died of dementia like he’s supposed to

Quit the faggotry and stop whining -
Is there a huge group of AK platform users in the USA?
Are there ammo manufacturers in other countries (+ USA) that also make 7.62x39?
Would those countries + USA see an opportunity to ramp up 7.62.x39 production?
About 40% of ammo sold in the USA is manufacturered in Russia. This is going to be bad for more than just people using x39.
Has the end game on guns and the chokehold on ammo changed in the last 2 decades? Nope. What has changed is the concentration of buys from one country (that's been getting various sanctions for nearly a decade) thus creating a huge vulnerabiilty to supply. The majority of whining on all platforms is "I wuz waiting for $0.20 cpr!!!" Had you been buying all along and stacking it there would be way less panic now.

You got a purty mouf boy.
5 days ago 7.62x39 was almost down to $0.20/rnd. Now the cheapest shit is around $0.525/rnd. A not insignificant number had switched to the AK platform in order to continue training without going broke, thus helping to alleviate the demand for 5.56 and other high-demand rnds. Now EVERYONE is going to go back to 223 because that's the cheapest. Which means that the supplies in the market which were just starting to normalize are FUCKED, and will start going up again. And that's before bringing in all other calibers affected by this. Or people simply won't be able to live fire train as often. Either way, like it or not, this affects all of us.
So is this really about the price not availability?

Price affects my availability. I only make so much. ammo price doubling means total number of rounds goes down for me. I have a reserve, but that's not my training ammo. And yes, I appreciate the irony of my handle here. So answering your question yes right now it's price. But availability can become an issue if the bidet foundation does anymore fuckery with the supply chains. E.g. crappy coof rule affecting truckers or other bs.
