I don't even know where to begin. I suspect I could buy these by the shipping container load and import them. But I have no idea what permits I need.
I also need to find funding.
Been doing research though. I think I could set myself up as an arms importer with the proper federal fire arms license. Still checking the legality of giving guns to people. I might have to sell them at a nominal fee (like $1) and ask for the $25 to run the federal background check

Our military uses 5.56. Our police use 5.56. Any NATO country that would consider sending troops to aid the US government will more than likely be using 5.56. Telling a first time buyer or someone who can only afford to buy one rifle to buy a rifle chambered in 7.62 is absolutely the definition of denying material reality. Yes, there are lots of gun owners, including myself, who have a rifle chambered in 7.62. That is not my first or primary rifle, though, nor would I recommend that for anyone in the US.

You can find 7.62 because it's not as used and we aren't in a civil war scenario. In an actual wartime scenario, production is going to be shifted heavily into 5.56, especially if the left is primary armed with 7.62. 7.62 isn't integral enough to the US military that can't can't switch to using another round of it meant depriving the left of ammo.

Did you read OPs post?
Dead solider/militamen, raids of government armories/stockpiles, and stealing shipments. Which, again, is why it's important to be using the common cartridge used by the military and law enforcement.

How exactly do you plan on capturing an armory when you have no ammo because the government shutdown 7.62x39 production and importation?
The only person being intentionally obtuse here is you. What's the point of making a post about "arming the left" in your mind? What exactly is the motive behind that?
Oh, OK, in that case, I recommend everyone go out and buy 10/22s to defend their community.
The context of this post isn't about individual choices. It's about arming a group en masse. Individually, sure, buy whatever you can afford. Collectively, arming leftist en masse with a rifle chambered in a caliber that the federal government could easily shut down production of with no pain to itself is an incredibly stupid strategy. No you collectively need new guns and ammo, I stead of just ammo.

That's essentially the context of this post, though: arming unarmed leftists with SKS's. I don't think that owning an SKS or AKM is a LARP, I think wanting to arm leftists en masse with them is a LARP.

OK, sorry, my bad, I missed that part. I just have a minor panic attack everytime I see a "let's arm the left with SKS's and Moisin Nagants" posts.
