Russia stops shipping ammo to US!

Any self-respecting AK owner should already have at least 1000 rounds or so squirreled away, so give it a month and pick up enough on the cheap when the markets are flooded so you never have to worry about this kind of thing again.

I like your line of thought
 
Russia is stopping shipments? Hell, we should put an embargo on anything coming to the US from Russia and also refuse to allow their ships and/or planes to dock/land here.
 
This has been brewing for a while now. There were articles about the potential impact on gun and ammo prices because of the Russia/Ukraine problems in the blogs for at least the last two weeks. Looks like the Yeager post might have been the straw the broke the camel's back though.

That being said, unless Russia really does stop shipments for good, all this will do is make distributors order a ton more, which will all show up, flood the market, and drive the prices down to $200/1000 in a month or so. As many have pointed out, even if they kept up a boycott, there are plenty of other countries that make this ammo as well.

It sure isn't the lack of countries making ammo. I have a friend that makes millions selling ammo every where other than the U.S.. It's the import laws that screw us. Dude has 20 million rnds of 9mm in a warehouse now, but can't get it into the country.

1000? At least indeed! LOL!
