U.S.A. –-(AmmoLand.com)- On 20 August 2021, the U.S. Department of State released a fact sheet announcing Russian firearms and ammunition importation will be banned for a minimum of 12 months starting 7 September 2021. From state.gov:
New sanctions imposed today under the CBW Act include:
- Restrictions on the permanent imports of certain Russian firearms. New and pending permit applications for the permanent importation of firearms and ammunition manufactured or located in Russia will be subject to a policy of denial.
The ban is listed as a sanction pursuant to the Chemical and Biological Weapons (CBW) Control and Warfare Elimination Act of 1991, over the supposed Russian use of the “Novichok” chemical agent to poison Aleksey Navainy.
Navainy was poisoned in August of 2020. He has been critical of the Putin regime in Russia. This is the second round of sanctions imposed on Russia by the United States over the Aleksey Navainy incident. The first round of sanctions did not ban the importation of Russian ammunition or firearms.
The Department of State announcement says “New and pending permit applications” … “will be subject to a policy of denial”. The implication is applications that have already been approved will not be revoked.
If that is correct, shipments of ammunition and firearms from Russia which have already been approved will be allowed to enter the United States and be sold.
It is unclear how long supplies in the pipeline will last.
The announcement is likely to rekindle the ammunition bubble for calibers commonly imported from Russia, such as 7.62×54, 7.62×39, 5.45×39, 5.56×45, and even match grade .22 ammunition.

Yep, and at the same time the wealth of we the people just bought Afghanistan $80 billion worth of brand new small arms, troop transport, missile launchers, and all the f-king ammo they want.
Don’t waste a round. Every bullet is for a communist, fascist, or Zionist. Be patient and we will make these bastards collect our ammo the hard way, one shot, one kill.
Practice your head shots like your life depends on it
Because it does
Make it a pink mist parade
“You bad, evil Russians! Don’t you dare send any firearms here! You’re being punished! (But please sell us some of your oil!”).
F***ing hypocrites!
Are people going to stand up together and do something? Otherwise we’ll just have really expensive paperweights, as the Commies deliberately starve us out of ammo. I’m getting real tired of waiting.
Dean Weingarten?
Sounds like a Small Hatter to me?
Pure speculation. I have no idea whether he’s a tribe member or not?
No point in impeaching a fake president when a court martial will do , and a sturdy wall
