Pretty sure there's a lot of 5.56 from NATO in the recent days. On the other hand, that Soviet stockpile won't last forever, especially this keeps dragging on...

You're right about the export AK, tho. Interesting that a lot of them is NATO chambered but with standard AK magazines.

Oh for sure there's a ton of 5.56 in Ukraine, but the mags used by .223/5.56 aks are not standard ak mags which makes them unsuitable among probably other reasons to carry into battle.
