WHAAAAAAAAAT?

HURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
DUDE THEYLL NEVER RUN OUT OF LE NUGGET FOOD XDDDD
LONGEST SERVING CARTRIDGE EVER THEYLL NEVER STOP IMPORTING!!!!!!!!
>>29571505
Sanctions mean less surplus coming stateside. Combine that with the fact that the surplus was drying up anyways means expensive nuggetfood.
The days of cheap, full caliber plinking with a $100 Mosin are over.
>>29571505
Well, Ukraine is kind of using a lot of 54r at the moment so I'm sure they've bought it wherever they can get it. Also sanctions. Depending on the next president we will either have slightly less expensive 54r coming in or no 54r coming in.
One of the few times I'm happy I'm a syrup bro..
>>29571505
I have a feeling that we will see more 7.62x54r on the market someday. Afterall, Russians are still fielding machineguns that use 54r as well as the stockpiles that are still in Ukraine.
Mfw 5 years ago Mosin were sub 100 dollars at big 5 and ordering 2 span cans was about 150
Go to lgs and see $300 91/30
Said lgs has $160 54r spam cans

>Nuggets are now the price of mausers and people see them for the awful rifles they really are in comparison to the mauser
>all the cheap ammo is dried up
>nugget memes and their cancer are finally dead
what a time to be alive
>>29571616
Shietttt $160 for a spam can is good. I've seen them above $200 everywhere.
Time to graduate to an AR, OP.
>>29571638
Only became meme and cancer when they were cheap.
Don't be mad that you didn't buy one (or 5) when you should've
>>29571638
Noone ever claimed Mosins were superior to the Mauser, it was the price and availibility which made it great
>had a lot of disposable income when I was noguns
>bought a bcm ar15 over a mosin because I thought I was too good to buy a $100 gun for my first gun and wanted something really good for my first
>mosin imports get held up

>get to shoot some anon's mosin at the range and have more fun than I could ever have with my ar

Your welcome faggot
It is a fun gun to shoot but with how expensive it is now id much rather invest in a different caliber rifle. Unless you have a psl or something cool like that.
>>29571505
>still buying spam cans
Faggot
>but they're cheap!
Quit being a jew
>it's milspec
It's also corrosive shit
>>29571505
Saw off the barrel. It's much funner to shoot.
