    So far it is only a panic from the dealer end not consumer. One of the largest distributors in the us sold 570,000 cases of 762x39 in 6 hours

    I have a "deal" for you! 500 rds of 7.62x39 for 2000.00. Get it while you can.

    But seriously folks this is how shit gets started. I mean those guys who have a million rds of 22 stockpiled and could never even shoot a 1/10th of what they have before they die. I keep a few thousand rds of 3 different calibers on hand. The one guy I work with has well over 300k rds of 22. Yeah it's cool and all but honestly could you ever shoot it all?

    It may not be up to the Russians whether they export or not if the US or UN place sanctions.
    I have a supplier of led lights that I buy from in Russian.....I'm afraid to order any right now because if sanctions are placed, I'll never get them.

    Ammoseek shows plenty available at 23 cents a round.

    Got to keep the panic going since ammo prices were finally coming down and shelves regularly stocked. Have to justify that $10/box of tula ammo at the gunshow when you can pick it up from Wallyworld for $5.

    Kill freedom of speech, that is what obama would like to do. You cannot not allow it on the forum when it is all over the news and in every gun shop...lol

    And here I was thinking I could start trading 7.62 X 39 even up for 22lr. Just wishful thinking I guess.

    I understand and support free speech, but it like yelling bomb on a plane or yelling fire in a packed movie theatre. It doesn't get anything accomplished. We all gripe about how expensive ammo is and yet we as gun owners create a false panic. Next thing now you won't be able to find any 7.62x39 ammo all because of a "rumor".

    As a gun owner you need to be responsible by keeping your guns safe but also to have a decent supply on hand.

    It was probably Ian that started the international rumor to drive ammo prices back up.
