    Someone asked via PM:

    I was wondering if the VEPR rifles were still legal to purchase after this new executive order by Obama?

    It appears that MOLOT was taken over by Izmash/Kalashnikov Concern a few years ago over a debt? If true that would mean that new importation of MOLOT/VEPR firearms.

    The new Executive Order would limit importation or sale of rifles that Kalashnikov is still owed for, but that wouldn't be any rifle we have in stock. Unfortunately they never responded to our request that they send us a few hundred rifles on consignment.

    I'm not 100%, but pretty sure that's all correct.

    As far as I can tell the new round of sanctions should not affect the flow of Russian ammo.

    Barnaul (produces silver bear/brown bear etc) is NOT included in the new round of sanctions,Barnaul is owned by BSZ holding
    http://www.bszholding.ru/

    they are not on this list:

    Also, Tula Cartridge works is privately owned by Aleksey Solovov. Neither he or his company is listed.

    Thanks for that aquaman!

    Also, because I just saw an article from The Blaze that implies otherwise: NO CURRENTLY OWNED RIFLES are affected in any way by the Executive Order.

    Today I will officially be kicking myself in the a$$ for not jumping on one of these when I had the chance! Sad sad day...
