    MILITARY SMALL-ARMS AMMUNITION
    Our products are used by many law enforcement agencies and the armed forces. Advanced ammunition by the TCW which is used in anti-terrorist operations deserves special mentioning. The Tula military ammunition is exported to many countries via the state company “ROSOBORONEXPORT” (http://www.rusarm.ru) ONLY .

    WASHINGTON, Oct. 25 (Xinhua) -- The United States has slapped financial sanctions on Russia's state arms exporter for its dealings with Iran, a move was described by Russia as something "without international legal foundation," the Washington Post reported Saturday.

    Under the U.S. law, any assets of the entities or individuals being sanctioned will be frozen, and no Americans are allowed to do business with them.

    The U.S. sanctions were designed to thwart the sales of sensitive technology that could help Iran, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) and Syria develop weapons of mass destruction or missile systems, the Washington Post said.

    Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Friday denounced the U.S. sanctions on Russia's Rosodboronexport, and its subsidiaries, as illegal and unjust.

    "These new sanctions were introduced without any international legal foundation whatsoever," Lavrov was quoted as reporting in Moscow.

    Russia will not change its policies on Iran because of the sanctions, the Russian foreign minister stressed.

    actually, I couldn't get any of the links to work except for cnn. I remember hearing similar stories a few months ago. Stocking up isn't a bad idea, but I wouldn't put a whole lot of faith in this.

    I believe that there will be lots of x39 coming into the states for at least the next four year following the elections next month. Unfortunately the x39s will more than likely be coming over as combat loads on enemy fighters.

    Arfcom locked a this same story saying the story was FALSE

    That being said it would behoove all of us to prepare for some future Administration that is openly hostile to firearm owners

    Well, I have read that soon after Barak is elected that ammo is going to skyrocket in price and that guns, especially used ones, will skyrocket, also. Not because of any immediate shortage but because of indications that the new Amerikan govt. will be making serious attempts to disarm everyone. They will also begin processes to close all gun manufacturing except for the military and ban all ammo and firearms imports.

    So whatever is available for now you might think about increasing your stash.
