California will soon require every person who wishes to purchase a “firearm precursor part” to first undergo a background check process nearly identical to that which California currently uses for ammunition sales. The only problem is no one knows for certain what exactly is a “firearm precursor part.”

ShAK-12 is large-caliber system loaded with the 12.7×55 cartridge with different types of ammunition. The ShAK-12 assault system is a modular heavy assault rifle, constructed on the basis of the principle of a bullpup and is a very effective short-range weapon. Combines compactness and great power of the large caliber gun.

From our friends at Detroit Ammunition Company LLC:
Due to the shocking news gathered at Shot Show we wanted to update our followers regarding the continued ammo and component shortages. The ammo and primer markets seem to be taking a turn for the worse. Booths at Shot Show for imported ammo brands like Aguila, Magtech, Maxxtech, Sellier & Bellot, and PPU were mostly empty and all had similar things to say about ammo for the coming year.

Due to extreme shortages in powder and primers, brands like Sellier & Bellot and Magtech have stopped taking orders for components until 2023 because they won’t have enough components to load their own ammo. This will heavily impact the primer market in the USA as there will be very few imported primers to fill the void left by the domestic primer shortage. This will heavily affect small to midsize ammo manufacturers who rely on outside sources for components.

The possibility of Russia invading Ukraine, In addition to the component shortages, will have a massive impact on the 2022 ammo market. We expect all Russian imports of components and ammo to come to a halt immediately once the invasion occurs. With estimates being as high as 40% of the ammo sold in the USA being Russian, the price of ammo will skyrocket if this supply chain is closed.

I don’t know that I get the .30 Super Carry as it seems to sit between .380ACP and 9mm (closer to 9mm than .380ACP). Almost seems like a solution looking for a problem, if I’m giving my unwanted and uninformed opinion.

If you’re looking to score some ammo this Black Friday, CheapAmmo.com invited Weapon Blog readers in on a special 9mm Luger flash sale. Starting at 10 a.m. (Eastern Time) they will have American-made, brass-cased rounds priced below cost. Due to manufacturer rules and the cheap price, they can’t say who made the ammo but can disclose it’s American-made, full metal jacket, 115 grain, and brass-cased by a major manufacturer. They’ve told me it’s one of Winchester, Federal, or Blazer Brass.)

The bulk 1,000 round cases will appear for sale on their 9mm ammo page starting at 10 a.m. this morning. They have a couple pallets worth but the guys at Cheap Ammo expect to sell out pretty quickly. So, if you miss out on today’s they are making more available Monday morning for Cyber Monday.

Warning: language and dark humor

Sadly, I was never able to make it out there…
