AK-47 worth anything since 7.62x39 will no longer be readily available?

First off the most popular cartridge in the world is NOT going away even if they stopped every single round from coming in what company in the US wouldn’t see the absolutely massive market share just sitting there and not shift production to capture the void left…basic economics wish you’d all quit chicken little’ing and for the combloc haters you’re 223/556 is about to go for an even bigger rollercoaster ride

Plenty of central european countries, formerly combloc, now NATO, that will be most happy to step in to provide supply. I wouldn't get too worried about it.

Odds are there's some 'connected' Democrat politician out there right now engineering how to get around the country thing and once-remove import them at a huge rakeoff profit. It's what they do; it's how they roll.....

And we can't forget the Taliban....since they've now gotten a MOUNTAIN of US M4s and ammo, they'll have all their 7.62X39 supply and sources they can channel over for profit to fund their new humanitarian government in the 'stan....

Who's happy? I see one or more possibly overly pessimistic, but I don't see 'happy.'

Did you throw away your AR when 5.56/.223 was $1 a round?

somewhat of a different situation. I doubt Russia will comply with the US requests by the time the 1 year ban runs out
