Obama banned your Kalashnikov (not really)

[Vlad G 345]

New round of actions against Russia, apparently this included Kalashnikov:

374. If I own a Kalashnikov product, is that product blocked by sanctions?  Am I able to resell a Kalashnikov product at a gun show or other secondary market? 

If a U.S. person is in possession of a Kalashnikov Concern product that was bought and fully paid for prior to the date of designation (i.e., no payment remains due to Kalashnikov Concern), then that product is not blocked and OFAC sanctions would not prohibit the U.S. person from keeping or selling the product in the secondary market, so long as Kalashnikov Concern has no interest in the transaction.  New transactions by U.S. persons with Kalashnikov Concern are prohibited, however, and any property in which Kalashnikov Concern has an interest is blocked pursuant to OFAC’s designation of Kalashnikov Concern on July 16, 2014.  If a U.S. person has an inventory of Kalashnikov Concern products in which Kalashnikov Concern has an interest (for example, the products are not fully paid for or are being sold on consignment), we advise that U.S. person to contact OFAC for further guidance on handling of the inventory.

That article says "if you own" it says nothing about "if you want to buy

[carl_g 568]

I read it as just that brand.."Kalashnikov Concern." It's really a not an issue for cagefighter. He was looking to buy an Arsenal.

Just throwing it out there that kalishnikov concern owns saiga unless im reading this wrong. So saiga imports stop no?

[Shawnmoore81 623]

Yes Saiga also

[carl_g 568]

Oh I did not know that...bummer!

[ogfarmer 138]

[302w 83]

Where do Moist Nuggets come from? I know the USSR, but what modern state?

[ogfarmer 138]

MOlot

[Teky0101 6]

So all saiga rifles and shotguns will no longer be imported? Grr! I have been wanting a saiga 12 for years! What about the VEPR?

[checko 180]

Can't wait to buy a saiga 12 for shit cheap after the panic is over

[Blake 50]

I want to know who paid to write all of that.  Oh wait..I did, you did, we all did...

 

Happy to know our tax dollars are going to good cause.

[Shawnmoore81 623]

Last night Zander's (online wholesaler) had 25 in stock. Now they have -6. So I'd say there is a run on saiga's

[carl_g 568]

I believe Veprs are impacted by this also.

[Shawnmoore81 623]

I'm gonna get a couple cases of wolf 7.62 just to be safe

[jrfly3006 42]

Wow..It's been a few months since the last freek-out buying frenzy...reset the clock...after we take a safety break of course..

[Johnny 0]

Anyone know if the ruling on surplus 5.45x39 is going to carry over to 7.62x54R as well?

[ogfarmer 138]

no

[Shawnmoore81 623]

Well saiga's already more then doubled at the wholesale level

[ogfarmer 138]

Is it ironic that the shedevil was begging for this back in March http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2014/03/robert-farago/senator-feinsteins-letter-prez-ban-imported-assault-rifles-pistols/

[Shawnmoore81 623]

Coincidence I guess

 

Where's my tin foil?

[Howard 538]

No sooner does obamba do this and they shoot an MH 777 passenger plane out of the sky over there.

[Shawnmoore81 623]

We are going to war, whether you want it or not.

[Lalo 13]

Ughh, I really hate that guy. Looks like I got my Saiga 762 & 12 just in time...

[Vlad G 345]

Shit is about to get a LOT worse if Russia just shot down a 777, which is looking likely right this minute. 

[Shawnmoore81 623]

That's the kinda $hit that starts a real war

I very much doubt we are going to war with Russia because well .. we all have nukes. That doesn't mean that won't be a serious economic war. That of course assume it was the russians or the russian backed rebels, and not Ukraine.
