7.62x39 AK ammo shortage?
4/9/06 | mylife

Posted on 04/09/2006 2:06:04 PM PDT by mylife

It looks as if the supply of AK 47 ammo has just dried the heck up!

Does anyone have any idea why? I hear venezuela is snapping it all up

Check your local mosque. Not sure they would sell any to an infidel, though.

I've only got a couple of hundred rounds left for my mini-30.

Let me know if you find a deal!

I checked a few places on the net and see out of stock everywhere.

Just phoned my dealer and he confirms there is a shortage he has 144 rounds left.

I remember when I could get 1440 rounds in a wooden crate for $119 US. Those were the great old days. Fortunately, I did the BLOAT thing. I'm probably down to less than 100K rounds, these days.

1K rounds is enough for practice for about 5 months. And then there's .22s and .380s and 9mm and..... each trip to the range should cost about 40 times the amount of the range fee, in ammo. IMPO. ;>) Gotta love that smell, and have an industrious 12 year old to reload magazines at $0.10/each...
