So...as an owner of a very lovingly cared for CUR2 AK I am curious as to when domestic manufacturers may pick up on cranking out cheap 5.45x39 ammo?
I know Hornady makes it now...but with it being steel case I wonder if they simply purchase the casings from an alternative source...likely from someplace where there is much shooting, tractors stealing tanks, etc...
To be honest, not really sure if anyone else has posted this and if this is no bueno then lock/delete/etc but I AM curious about this...
IF we get more local ammo supply...will this mean we can get some domestic bolt rifles chambered in it then? I know about the SSG 82...looks like an ugly child from a Mosin and a Stevens 325 (I own both so don't hate on me!)
So...thoughts? Will ammo become more available for the self loading rifles? Will that supply then generate bolt rifles?
Not going to lie...I eventually will want a lever action chambered in 5.45x39...eh...nah...never mind on the lever gun.
