    I figured If I have to buy commercial ammo, I might as well support the only American company making it, so they keep doing it. Just in case some spineless worker for the ATF bans all imported ammo.

    From what I've read there is new stock (Wolf, Red Army, Tula, etc...) that is sans steel core, and will be just fine to import. The guy at JBI is a complete a-hole for screwing over an entire group of shooters, and hopefully his business is impacted in the same manner that he just effected millions of shooters.

    The only good thing I see and hope Karma is on our side is the lowering price of 74 variants. I'm still going to shoot it. Love the round and weapon. But I have been feeling sick since Friday, considering I had no means to stock up for the past month or more.

    When I heard about the possibility of the import ban two days ago went to 6 online stores to order a few crates and all were SOLD OUT.

    Few years ago friends were ridiculing me when I was snapping up crates of this stuff. Sitting on 5 crates currently.

    I now wish I had gotten into 5.45 a lot sooner than I had. Love the round and cheapness of it. It will still remain inexpensive, but it will hurt the wallet more than it had before. We need a sea change in politics badly to keep shooting from being an upper class privileged.

    Well, I guess I won't be getting into 5.45 AKs after all....
    Back to the ol' 5.56.
    Until the the next ban craze....

    You can still get 5.45x39 just not the surplus ammo 7N6.

    I find it hard to believe that nobody made an Ak pistol in 5.45 and put it out there for sale until December 2011. If it was the first what took the ATF so long?

    Missouri Custom Arms built at least one in 2007. There is an old for sale thread on TOS from June 2007 that comes up if you google 5.45 pistol.
