    Got this from Survival Blog. Just what we need....:(

    An anonymous reader sent in a list of ammunition makers that are based out of the Ukraine and will probably see shortages or shipping delays due to the current crisis:Wolf/WPA/UCW ,Tulammo,Red Army/RASU,Brown Bear, Herters, Prvi Partizan,MFS Ammunition, Russian 223

    Prvi shouldn't be affected too much, they are in Serbia, though they may want to source another importer as I would imagine they use the same folks for Wolf, Tula, etc...

    I think MFS is Hungarian/Polish, so I would imagine it's supply would be varying due to importer.

    I've heard just the opposite, that in order to raise cash Ukraine would be selling even more ammo here. Go figure.

    If they want to defend their home they had better pick rifles with readily available ammo. :)

    Slingshots are in vogue. You can appendix carry them and bonded rocks puts a man down, plus has improved performance when it bounces off barriers like auto glass, steel and denim.

    Wonder if I can coin if I run Tod Green's FAST with a slingshot...

    Most of those brands are russian: wolf, tula, 'red-army' (who'd a thunk it?), and the most likely reason that supply would get cut off would be because of sanctions. I'm surprised that king-barry hasn't thought of it already
