How is it possible? Trump overturns thr laws?

>bought a vepr a month before the election because I thought cuntlary would win and ban everything

>zogf won and enacted an import ban that made vepr prices increase and stock decrease dramatically

He pretty much guaranteed I'd make at least a 150% profit off of my gun within the span of a year, but he also made it hard to get glorious slavshit for everyone else.

The money doesn't matter to me, the fact he made it harder for others to legally obtain funs makes me hate his god damn guts no matter what. Fuck political maneuvering or chess or whatever the cucks are calling it now. His virtue signalling being the direct cause of FL and VT's governors feeling comfortable enough to cuck out is enough for me to brand him a traitor for life

reminder that Vepr rifles are not normal AK-47 variants, they are RPK carbines, and consequentially are heavy as a motherfucker on the frontend.

I owned the FM-47 and sold it, couldn't get used to the massive lopsided weight differential.

Beware.

>>606068

Tbh, I think that would be fine if you were planning on getting a .308 or 7.62x54R model.

The sanctions against Russian arms were put in place during Obama's term, Anon.

>>606091

Nope, that was sanctions against Kalshnikov/Izhevsk/Izhmash and related companies. The Molot/Vepr sanctions were introduced by Trump in June of 2017, not Obama.

>>606026

>Treasury department adds Vepr to Obamas list of import bans

>"Trump's import ban from 2017"

I wonder who could be behind this post.

>>606026

>Fime Group is now restarting importation of Molot/Vepr rifles after Trump's import ban from 2017.

YES

>You can now get a Russian-made AK in the US again.

YES!

>They're only doing the wood-stocked

OKAY

>.243 models

AAAAGHHHHG FUCK

Ok you both seem misinformed, so I'm going to cover some background info.

>the president controls all the departments of USA

Fellas I don't know if you noticed but Bush and Obama left a shitton of sleeper agents in every single level of government. Not to mention their fucking CZARS which still control to this day, September 4th 2018, most of government functions.

https://www.bing.com/search?q=obama+treasury+tsar

The President won't control shit until after 2018 midterms, and only if republicans keep the house and seize a few more seats in the senate.

The only sanction related shit that the president is connected to is signing the Obama-era sanctions bill overwhelmingly passed by congress once there's a significant majority in both houses, it's veto-proof. He dragged his feet for almost a full year before signing those, but eventually he had to, and he made sure to make his objections to the law known.

In fact when Nikki fucking Haley said that America would hit Russia with NEW sanctions on top of the Obama-era ones, the president told the bitch to shut up.

The Vepr addition you're talking about was pushed by House Armed Services Committee, and voted into law by both house and senate, and then approved by the Treasury secretary. POTUS was only tangentially related.

The law passed also demanded that the presidents admin make a list of everyone connected with Putin. Law didn't mention what should be done with this list, but the admin was literally forced to make a stupid list of people, so some intern copied names from the English version of Russian government websites.

>>606026

Nice, I might actually get myself a super VEPR .308, which I've been meaning to get since 2011.

>>606067

Fuck you, got my hopes up for nothing.I did some searching, and Veprs are still banned.

Hearing chatter about the possibility of new sanctions stopping import of Russian made ammo. Anyone have any info about that?

>>611352

No idea, but I'm also suspecting that Zenith won't be importing their 5.56 rifles or pistols anymore. They no longer appear on the site. They were there a week ago. I guess this is an imports general now.

>>611373

>>611371

Dumbass. This just means stock hasn't run out, not that imports are no longer banned.

https://fimegroup.com/news/molot-vepr-rifles/

Britcucks giving people false hope and shit.

>>611362

SGammo in a recent sales flyer said there were import bans coming down the pipe. With many retailers I'd say it was scare mongering to drum up sales but from what I hear about Sam I think that would be really out of character.

>>611387

Honestly, why the fuck is this still happening? I thought we were fucking done with this shit. Can we just contact the Pres on twitter and tell him to stop being a fucking asshole?

>>611406

Honestly, a lot of this stuff is by executive order. He could totally undo a lot of shit today if he wanted to. We need to get this trending on twitter.

>>611549

Not only that, but last year an anon suggested a way he could maneuver around the Hughes Amendment by executive order. If I recall correctly:

>law says that any member of a federal agency is entitled to purchase and/or be issued select-fire weapons for use in their work

>create new agency, call it Free Citizens of America or some shit

>anyone with American citizenship is automatically inducted into federal organization

>any new American citizens are automatically entered into the organization

>FCA members may use their membership to purchase select-fire weapons from gun stores

>one of the rules in the founding charter state that a rule may be added, removed, or amended only through a 90% majority agreement of all current members

Just like that, you've ground gun control legislation to a permanent halt, with something that's guaranteed to survive your Presidency.

>>611384

I'm not saying that they're being imported, just that they're back in stock and have pricing for whatever reason

>>611389

>thinks he's safe because he voted Zognald "bump stocks are machine guns" Drumpf

OH NO NO NO NO

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>>611589

>I'm not saying that they're being imported, just that they're back in stock and have pricing for whatever reason

Yeah, they were purchased prior to sanctions. We're not going to see any more of them, probably ever.

To be honest a lot of these import bans are probably pushed by the American gun companies themselves or through the NRA. It'd be the best way to not have to improve shit and having your overpriced shit replaced by people buying cheap imports.

>>611598

The AWB of 94 was definitely supported by various gun companies, I mean Marlin lost a retarded amount of business due to cheap chink SKS's.

>>611598

I think this may be the case, but it's not as importers don't have a presence in the business overall either, and for what it's worth, gun owners have a bias toward US-made products anyway. I mean, I for one, try to buy as many things produced locally as I can.

>>606040

That's free democracy. You only get to lose rights, you never get them.

>>611553

Interdasting. BRB, cleansing all internet history and changing my name so i can run in 15 years.
