They are close. Once the moron’s all have electric cars, and combustion engines not available, they will then control the broken national grid. Not a big deal really, since supplying electricity currently is spotty at best. ( brown & black outs in NY, Ca, Tx, etc., already.

There is a reason European gun makers opened shop in the US. The US made it illegal to import. Those folks still build and sell in their native lands. It'll be up to Americans to open shop overseas as well.

If this ends up with a big effect on ammo this means slightly lower prices this winter, as more of the supply planned for overseas will have to be sold domestically. But it also means restraints in production in the future by US manufacturers. Short term bump for buyers, long term harm to suppliers.
Reports of Gun Smuggling to Mexico Recalls Fast and Furious Gunwalking Plot
But we’ve seen this all play out before, as noted in “Lies From Operation Fast and Furious ‘Gunwalking' Resurrected in Mexican Lawsuit.”

With 5.56 prices up $100 a case in a very short time, I really doubt it will go lower any time soon.

It really depends how much they were sending abroad for non-military purposes. If it's all military then 5.56 won't go down. But other ammo might, especially specialized ammo mostly for civilians if exports were a big part of their sales.

OP, you got your subject line all wrong. Per The Guardian (emphasis added):
The US has stopped issuing export licenses for most civilian firearms and ammunition for 90 days for all non-governmental users, the commerce department said on Friday, citing national security and foreign policy interests. ... The pause does not affect previously issued export licenses, the commerce department said.
Hence, ongoing exports may continue without interruption. As in "business as usual".

I'm leaning to the view that the gun control movement in the US is not so much about gun control in the US itself, as it is preventing the spreading of a gun ownership culture to the rest of the world.
Sort of like isolating an infected patient, to prevent the infection from spreading.
For years now, gun parts and optics are classified as restricted. Which is ridiculous, considering the US manufacturers account for the majority of the worlds weaponry and ammunition in current conflicts.
Maybe the US Government wants all the governments of the world to fight their wars with US manufactured weapons, at the same time restricting access to weaponry for the citizens of the world.

Current and previous administrations are and have been working to change that.
Stupid pesky facts. They always get in the way. It's unbelievable how people will repeat something the read without any idea of the credibility of the source.

To be fair, here, every headline I saw was exactly as OP quoted it - except The Guardian's. If we want to wring hands about something, how about the allegedly independent news outlets (AP, Reuters, Bloomberg, ...) all (by sheer chance!) agreeing on the same points of view and sharing, verbatim, the same phrases.

Actual journalism is almost gone.
So you do not issue new licenses, the existing will sooner or later expire and then no one has a license. This is like was mentioned earlier a probe. If you or anyone else thinks this administration or any other cares about human lives you are mistaken. They all want the population reduced substantially. If they cared at all they would never have left all the arms, planes, helicopters, missile launchers and tanks in Afghanistan. DosXX is right it all fake news unless the real truth works towards their agenda.
