Russians were allowed to make their own ammunition for weapons due to sanctions
On January 16, amendments to the Law “On Weapons” came into force, allowing owners of rifled weapons to produce cartridges. As reported by RIA Novosti , the law, which was adopted by the State Duma on July 10, 2018 and came into force on January 16, 2019, allows owners of rifled rifles and carbines in Russia to independently load cartridges for their weapons. It is noted that previously it was allowed to independently produce cartridges only for hunting firearms.
