Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?

Arsenal Inc. They're currently the Cadillac of AK imports, and unfortunately that means Cadillac-tier prices. Still, their milled SAM7R and SAM7SF series are top of the line, and they recently got in another batch of SAM5 rifles in 5.56, which might be a good option going forward since 7.62x39 is going to get a supply disruption with the Russian ammo importation ban.

Doesn't Winchester make 7.62 by 39mm since there is the Ruger Mini-30 and I guess the ammo for that comes from somewhere lol.

I hate how they can't even assign blame correctly. The Supreme Court literally did nothing, the Texan legislature did. It's like they think the job of the Supreme Court is to intervene any time a red state does something they don't like. They are completely incapable of thinking below the national level.

That is literally what they think. It's why they always accuse the right of hijacking the court, the court and the law is just a weapon to them.

I'm sure they and other domestic ammo manufacturers will try to expand their market share of 7.62×39 with Tula out of the picture. Be prepared to fork over a left nut and a kidney for a box of 20.

OTOH, with them already straining to keep up with consumer ammo demand, they probably don't have the time or tooling to expand into Eastern Bloc calibers, which are a more niche market.

According to Brandon Herrera, 5.45 ammo (for AK-74's) is the caliber that will really be kaput.

Time will tell.

You are going to compare a botched evacuation due to incompetence to a sci-fi movie?

What the fuck?

I'd say more fantasy than sci-fi.

I mean, if the sci-fi movie in question actually mirrored these events it might actually make sense, but this is Star Wars so it's nonsense. I'm pretty certain a Star Trek episode would've been closer to the mark.

What about all the civilian contractors stranded on the Death Star when it blew up? Can't imagine they all evacuated successfully. Anyway, Clerks did this bit already, so back to real content.

Here's what the Taliban currently looks like with their new gear.

Ultimately this as the US market might not be able to keep up but parts of the former eastern block will. The Ukraine, Romania, and Serbia will most likely fill the gap eventually but none of them use 5.45 so American made will be your only option for that.

Romania still makes 5.45 for local use with the PM md. 86 (aka AIMS-74), so I imagine Century Arms is going to source them for the ammo.

There might actually be some stability in the region now that there's a competent fighting force in power.

Alas, do not assume that Biden and the Merry Band of Graboids will stop with banning just Russian ammo. This is most likely the beginning of a campaign to choke off ammo supply to civilians; ban other importers, corner the market so that only domestic manufacturers can sell ammo, and then bust their balls with lawfare.

AFAIK, the Tula Plant had nothing to do with the poisoning of Navalny, so there's not much standing in the way of Grabbers inventing other bullshit reasons to hobble your 2A rights.

Guess who the sanctions on Tula hurt? Not Putin, that's for sure.

Real talk, if this were to happen would it definitely result in a war? As much as Americans don't want to be involved in another war in the Middle East, the unprovoked slaughter of hundreds of innocents would definitely warrant reprisal. If it were my citizens, I honestly wouldn't be satisfied unless a proportionate amount of blood is shed.

Reprisal requires a strong leader with a clear mandate to follow. Biden has neither strength or a clear mandate for an Afghanistan campaign. There's no Coalition of the Willing to follow him and it's unclear whether a short, fast, indiscriminate campaign or another occupation is desired. We saw this with that pathetic drone strike that killed a family and probably not ISIS members.

On the soldiers ordered to turn away U.S. citizens at the gates, how do you feel about that?

For the soldiers ordered by the Taliban to stay inside the cuckport and not actively try to save American lives, S.I.V. lives, and your C.O. having a whiny screech fit with the S.A.S. C.O. for doing such for "making you look bad" how does that feel?

For the soldiers on guard duty at the cuckport seeing the Taliban with American gear beating civilians. Did it feel good to see that?

Were these soldiers hand picked for party loyalty like the guardsmen in D.C. or are we looking at a bunch of pissed off people in out military?

19 year old private and 20 year old lance corporal are just like any other kind of student worker; just there to get paid. Something went wrong? It's the manager's job, not mine.

His wife's side had slaves but not him personally. He was on the abolitionist side of the issue but didn't want to burn the nation down, but it was inevitable.

Under Lincoln we got the emancipation proclaimation which freed slaves in the south and later on the 13th and 14th amendments happened. Also allowed blacks to fight in the union army as well.

History is definitely complex but he managed to get the issue of slavery finally resolved and his payment was a bullet to his head.

But was that a good thing really? Black culture is vastly more embarrassing now than when Frederick Douglas wrote about drunk slaves.
