Does Trump's withdraw from UN arms treaty mean we may be again seeing Russian AK's and SKS's coming over here?? Some say yes and some are saying no..what's the facts??

That doesn't solve the problem. The problem was caused by Obama sneaking in a "sanction" against Russia which included Russian corporations like Kalashnikov. The executive order would have to be reversed or modified. Trump can't eliminate a Russian "sanction" right now with the Russia, Russia, Russia hysteria.
Here is BHO's order to the Office of Foreign Asset Control:

Yeah, the Arms treaty was a totally separate thing and was never ratified by the U.S. Senate, so what Obunghole did by signing it was symbolic and what Trump did by revoking the Presidential signature was also symbolic. Nothing more.

Well since Trump signed several additional sanctions against Russia during his term, I'd say you are not going to see anything unless he lets those sanctions expire.

Maybe not Russian made stuff but what about all the other countries that sold mil-surp to the unwashed masses...

So you like guns but only if they are domestic? Big 2A supporter there...
So I take it you're fine with the excrement freedom group is pushing out? I'll take my Benelli's, CZ's, and Beretta's any day of the week.
Ruger is decent but seems to have a recall for every other gun they put out, Henry's are really the only great ones but have a slim and particular market share, S&W can't put a barrel on straight to save their lives, Remington...LOL, Colt craps on the civilian market and has had more bailouts than wall street, and Springfield tried to sell out gun owners...

From some of his other post it seams like shooter444 doesn't care about anything as long as it doesn't effect his little corner of the world or what he believes in or wants.
I could be wrong but that is what I get out of his posts.

Duh,... buy American,... is that a complicated concept.
Being defensive with unwarranted personal attacks, only tells a bigger story.
FYI,... the second amendment has nothing to do with liking firearms, foreign or domestic! And,... pretending your personal interests in cheap imports, is based on your Right to Keep and Bear arms, is a sad joke.
The second amendment is a stopgap measure against a tyrannical acting Government, to prevent infringement on our Creator endowed inalienable human right to Keep and Bear Arms. Not your personal need for cheap imports.
How can you support the second amendment,... if you don't even know what it is,... big 2A supporter there.

Don't see how the 2nd Amendment has anything to do with "where" the gun comes from.
I do see how it is nice to buy American made products. I also do see how well made a lot of foreign manufactured products are. If there are two quality competing products with comparable prices and one is made in the USA, that one is for me. But often the price difference is quite drastic with the less expensive product being foreign made. No a difficult choice really. That's Capitalism.

Then there is the ammo - cheap 5N7 for the thousands of AK47's already imported... look what happened to chinese ammo several years ago.
It's about capability to keep the older existing rifles working...
ETA... with cheap milsurp imported ammo.
