How much of this surplus ammo is left? I have a Finnish M39 that I love to shoot, and it's so awesome to have cheap ammo for it, but I always worry about it drying up. I don't mind having to pay more if i have to, but I'd rather not. Will there be any more imported? I am unfamiliar with some of the bans that have happened over the years.

There literally is less than 40,000 rounds less in the whole world. You're a fool for buying that "cheap" VEPR.

>How much of this surplus ammo is left
worldwide? probably tons and tons. theres a pic of some hanger where crates of it are stacked to the ceiling. theres a chainlink fence and a guard in front of it. hopefully someone will post it.
in the US? dont know, but its really been drying up for the past year.
>will anymore be imported
someone asks about russian sanctions possibly being lifted literally everyday on k. the answer is: who knows. maybe.
>>
>>32697760
So none of this shit, no matter where it's been stored, can be imported?
>>
>>32697739
> unaware that millions of new production rounds in this caliber are still made every year
> being this retarded
>>
>>32697771
it can be imported, the issue is the middle east is eating the supply up. the situation in Ukraine doesn't help either.
>>
>>32697794
A gun store near me has like 880 rounds for around $250 or 260, so I might buy that up. Like I said, I dont mind paying more for commercial ammo if I have to, but $0.25-$0.35 high powered rifle rounds are nice.

the turkish rug pattern version of this webm made my heart skip a beat earlier.

>>32697701
I have about 4000 rounds I'm trying to get rid of right now.

If you buy milsurp, you're better off just reloading.
>>
>>32697871
who has time for reloading

>>32697871
Im glad you have a son that looks like you and is also into guns like you are.
>>
>>32697827
thats the current going rate, if you can find them i stock that is.
if you have the cash, just go ahead and get it. there might be better deals down the line but 1) theres no guarantees for anything and 2) if more is imported, just buy more at that time

You cant even reload shit tier 54r for the price of a spam can 2 years ago. Youre losing money if you sell it to reload. If youre just getting into 54r, then yes, its probably cheaper to reload then pay current prices assuming spam cans dont start coming in within the next couple years.

I heard reloading x39 wasn't worth it, can't imagine 54r is anymore worth it either? I'm talking about brass, non-magnetic here too. Can't shoot steel in CA. I've really been considering buying the corrosive ammo crate on sgammo and then just reloading those brass cases. Not like they're gonna be corrosive more than once, right?
>>

If you don't have nudes stop posting these.
>>
>>32701153
If you're shooting a vepr, especially a 54r one, don't count on too many of those cases being reloadable, Veprs like to beat the shit out of brass

I've been Reloading it for years now, and yeah I'm definitely not saving money against what I paid for most of this stuff in 2007 (a case was $70 back then). But I have a SVT, a PSL and now a Winchester 1895. Those are pains in the ass to clean, so I'm not going to shoot surplus through them. Might as well get rid of it, make a bit of cash and put that into something else.

I think the psl is damn easy to clean personally. Pic related is my magic bullet for cleaning ak tubes. Brush, then snake to leave it like new.
>>
>>32703411
It's more of a pain than I want to put into it, even though I haven't shot my PSL in 3 years. I'm more worried about my SVT and Winchester.

Also, I like my ammo availability not being subject to import bans or scares.

>I'm never having children, my wife and I hate them.

Wise choice. Same here, in muh fifties now, no regrets.

Yeah, I'd worry more about the other two by far.
And there's almost always plenty of 150gr noncorrosive ammo for sale, even hunting ammo.
I've used heavy ball 54r, don't really care for it in any way.
