Saiga Ban

Yeah, at first I just dismissed the common held notion they were terrible people, but over the last few years, it's become apparent they are crooks.

So a bunch of people ordered 5.45 saigas last night from CTD. Today CTD cancelled all of their orders so they can sell the guns at a higher price.

Why people still deal with CTD is beyond me. This is like the 4th time in 5 years that they have done this crap.

That actually made me laugh.

I got 4 Colt magazines AR magazines for $54 this week. I ordered 2 from Grab a Gun for $18 each since they aren't more than most other metal mags... and I bought a Colt AR to match. So they accidentally pulled 4. So the guys there let me have the other 2 half because I was honest and said I just ordered the 2. I guess I could've stolen them, but that's pretty lame IMO. The price I got on the Colt AR and Ruger 10/22 made it well worth my time too. I also got some more Sig 1911 mags as well. They are less than Wilson and run perfectly in my Sig 1911.

I will be ordering more from them. I will not ever buy another firearm at Academy. It just takes too damn long, and then to have to perp walk after purchase is just another annoyance. It takes too many people and too much time to finish a firearm transaction there. I will watch GaG, the local advertisers here, TGT and gunshows.

Hopefully they won't do the same to Molot. I've been eyeing the VEPR-12 for a while. I've read a lot of positive things about them, although I think they're a little overpriced.

Had a customer transfer a Vep-12. They're pretty heavy, it seemed much heavier than the Saiga 12 I used to have for some reason, but it also seemed pretty solid and well built. I wouldn't mind owning one.

As for the Vepr's in 54R, I've talked to several people who own them and they ahve all said they're amazingly accurate, I was surprised but it seemed to be the first thing all of them told me when discussing the rifle.

5.45 rifles are still easy to get.

Molot is a subsidiary of Kalashnikov Concern. Falls under the same sanction as I understand it.

VEPRs are gone too. List of banned stuff:

So is this going to be temporary until Russia cleans up its act?

Or is this another gun grab by our Govt. under the disguise of "punishing Russia"?

No, this is permanent.

Clinton did this with Norinco in the 90s. See any new Norinco AKs around?

My prediction for appreciation: Saiga 12, Vepr 7.62x54R, Vepr .308, Saiga .308, Saiga 7.62x39, Saiga 5.45x39, Saiga .223.

Value increasing in that order

I saw this coming and have been pack ratting these for years.
