"We sell some of the Kalashnikov Concern stuff and that has been
selling fast," said Robert Keller, manager of K-Var Corp., a Las
Vegas-based online gun distributor.
Keller said his company has
been sold out of the guns since the sanctions went into effect. On
K-Var's web site, AK-47s are listed as "out of stock."
The Obama administration issued sanctions against Russian
companies in response to Russia's role in a separatist movement in
Ukraine. An increasingly violent civil war between Ukraine's government
and the separatists resulted in tragedy Thursday, when a Malaysian
Airlines passenger plane was shot down, killing 298 people.
According to the Treasury Department, Kalashnikov Concern is banned
from importing its guns -- including the AK-47 and more advanced AK-74
-- into the United States. But, in a statement posted on its Web site,
Treasury said Americans are allowed to own, buy and sell the guns, so
long as they were already in the U.S. prior to the sanctions.
So
just what is the 'surprising effect' the author suggests in the article
title? Is it that Americans are keen to add a Russian AK to their
collection in spite of Barry Hussein's EO? It shouldn't be. People
always want to exercise their freedom in the face of tyranny,
particularly Americans. Remember there have been over 100,000,000 NICS
checks since the imposter has been POTUS! Also, the last sentence infers
the rifles in hot demand and briskly selling now are full automatics.
This is of course not true and is misleading to the uninformed and
gullible, a typical and common government approved mass media tactic
designed to prejudice the jury.
