Under the Guise of Punishing Russia, Biden Instead Hurts U.S Gun Owners Banning Ammo

It is clear to us that the intention is not to harm Russia but rather to hinder the acquisition of firearms and ammunition by American citizens.

Hi Guys,

Caught wind of this today.

Not sure how valid it is, but could have a major impact on the ammo market in the US.

US sanctions Russian firearms imports, missile-related technology exports to Moscow

The sanctions "include a restriction on the permanent importation of firearms or ammunition manufactured or located in Russia pursuant to new or pending permit applications"

So, no Tula or Wolf primers for a bit longer.

Our government just trying to keep us safe. I can respect that….

So, this seems perfect timing and convenient for Afghanistan. Now the Taliban with get all they need at 1/2 price. Meanwhile, we at the bench in the US will pay GB prices. LOL

Unless primers are now considered "ammunition" I must be missing something.

Hey maybe now is mag dumpers won’t have any ammo and no one will have to complain about us

It’s an import ban, so it’s probably all encompassing. Probably ammunition and components. If I had to guess.

 

[tsyarnall]

Hmmm...............I’m not at all surprised. Par for the course.

Heck, i've tried to contact the ATF about bringing primers over the border from Canada for personal use. (I have yet to hear back, or get a live person after calling once, sometimes twice a day for the past week)

I finally found out that you can, as long as you get approval and a permit from filling out a Form 6.
Which requires a photo copy of ID, your fingerprints, and a $250 application fee.

If i go through all that, i'm bringing back a 53' tractor trailer full!

Those of us in Canada who are also dealing with incredible shortages due to the mass buying in the US, would appreciate if you didn't. Cheers.

Who really is interested about any russian ammo or guns? As a finn I give a S**T about any russian product.

 

[Juppe12]

We are America, we buy other peoples junk.

Actually here in europe has been ban for russian weapons and ammo after russia invaded Ukraina and Krim.

I would'nt worry about the Russky's, The Czech's will step up
to fill the gaps. Now if only they'll start by shipping Sellior
and Bellot primers.

 

[hogpatrol]

Hmm. Very interesting. Maybe now we won't have to continually broom away a couple hundred rounds of steel left by the mag dumpers.

 

[BigPrince]

Wolf already has some of it's ammo marked as from Ukraine. All my AK ammo is russian but I know others are out there. Don't need to panic buy. Wolf/Tula/CA will find a way.

 

[Rsadams]

Just popped into my email , Biden is going to stop the importation of Russian ammo.... Not exactly what I want but I do have guns that eat that steel case crap like SKSs and AKs.... So if your needing any you might want to get what you can now... This also includes Russian made guns , not just the ammo....
