Rob Ski (of AK Operators Union) has posted a couple videos about possible sanctions on the parent company of Tula ammo.  Sounds like nothing has been done yet, but some form of sanction is likely, but it is not known if it will cause import restrictions.  Just thought I would post here in case any of you are concerned. 

He has some good 5000 round torture test videos if you are looking for a good AK (some AR's also).

Heard this also.

HOWEVER- I also read claims on a forum that this will not affect ammo imports, as tula ammo plant is owned by a group not effected by this who.

Hopefully, this is the case.

There are other russian ammo plants- Barnual, etc as well.

Tulammo denies the rumor:

Hopefully that is the case!

Okay.  I wouldn't care so much about Tula ammo itself, but it might increase prices or set up a run on other AK ammo.
