Anyone want to bet this becomes permanent,at least ’till 2017,when we get a new admin,hopefully one that believes in and supports the second amendment. (yeah,right)

 

 

“According to a Presidential Executive Order issued Wednesday, the importation of AKs manufactured by the Kalashnikov Concern in Izhmash, Russia has been banned.

This includes the popular “Saiga” line of rifles and shotguns.

Mikhail Kalashnikov spent his life at the Izhmash firm.

The sanctions were taken because of Russia’s aggression toward the Ukraine. Russian banks and energy companies were also targeted.

To be clear, the executive order does not affect Izhmash or Saiga firearms already in this country. This is not an “assault weapons” ban. Instead, it halts the importation of firearms from the Izhmash-based firm.”
