Not at these prices.

But, yes - 7.62x39 is one of the most common calibers in the world, and 7.62x54 is a beast (x54 used to be really cheap).

Steel-cased Russian ammo is very popular with some.

Yes. Nothing particularly wrong with it if you have an AK.

Our local coffee shop proprietor open carries a Soviet handgun that he got for a carton of Marlboros while in the Coast Guard in the '80s. He might.

According to tacticalshit.com Russian ammo accounts for about 40% of all available ammunition in the U.S. right now. The article is dated today, 8/20/21.

Prices are going to skyrocket.

I have some combloc guns. Domestic and Eastern European manufacturers make the various flavors for the russian guns. The Russian stuff is just cheaper.
