not until the WW3 and if that day come the cartridge manufacture will run ^^ i would like to say never , the russian and all the other country of the bloc have warehouse with millions of crates , the only thing you can see is a price change
 
just like when the 75.00 per crate of ammo dried up , the 200.00 per crate ammo will dry up ..... but after that is gone I'm pretty sure they will be lots of 300.00 per crate of ammo around .

worst case scenario , you will have to take up reloading like the rest of us .
 
Everything surplus comes to an end eventually. That being said I gotta think it'd be a while before there's any shortage issues. Over the past half a century so many countries have used and produced the 7.62 x 39 cartridge.
 
Surplus x39 won't dry up due to being used up, it will eventually become unobtainable due to UN and government regulations. The UN already strongly discourages governments from selling surplus firearms and ammo, wanting it destroyed instead. NRCAN currently has regulations in place that make it hard to import a lot of surplus ammo. Marstar apparently has seacans full of 8x57 that they aren't allowed to import because of bullsh!t NRCAN rules. This will only get worse as the bureaucrats continue choking off our freedoms and regulate us to death.

NRCAN has made importing surplus EASIER in the last few years and Marstar is waiting on an inland transport permit for EUROPE. Don't spout off when you don't have the facts.
 
The firearms that fire it will be banned in 3 years.. the ammo, who knows but it does not matter. The U.N. and their cronies will have their way with all ammo I presume.


I wish I was just "sky falling it" but I fear not.
 
Nobody really knows... but I find it hard to believe that ammo that fires out of the (third) world's most popular and widespread assault rifle will ever dry up... there must be vast stores of x39 all over the planet. The SKS will dry up long before the ammo IMHO.
 
Virtually all the surplus we get here is cold war reserve, when the budgets allowed for massive stockpiling.

Those stockpiles are not being refreshed, and the UN/NAMSA are paying to destroy stocks in many places.

You should be worried more about access to the guns that use the ammo than the ammo. If everyone sent the value of one case of ammo to the orgs who work to protect these guns, we would have less of an issue.
 
Isn't Barnaul non corrosive currently in production? Why are you talking about milsurp only? I think it's up to whoever in charge here to let it in or not.
 
"...Is it even a concern..." That was said about 7.62 NATO and .303 British before governments assorted decided it would no longer be sold to civilians. Mind you, if you want to shoot poor to mediocre ammo you shoot surplus. Otherwise you reload and the issue goes away.
 
Going to have to agree that the firearms that use it will be banned before the supply of surplus ammunition dries up. Canadaammo has the right idea though. Donate the funds for one case of ammo once a year to an organization that is trying to protect our freedom to buy it.
I may just do that once I do some more research into them.
 
I agree that we ought to be more worried about the ammo and guns being prohibited rather than running out. Unfortunately the government likes to trample on our rights, which is going to be a bit harder to solve than an ammo shortage. I'll support any organization that keeps the milsurp stock flowing in.

I am going by John's own words from a couple of years back. He said they had millions of rounds of 8x57 stuck overseas because NRCAN would not let him import it. If that has changed it is great news, hopefully Europe now lets it out.
