The question is if anyone has seen the business very attractive enoigh to build a production line as with handful of guns and none of the owners (eg Germany, Japan, Finland, Norway, Poland, Canada) etc) is waging a war the consumption is low. Nammo makes some 35x288 I believe HEI, but if UKR uses AHEAD those have been made by Oerlikon (to my understanding, happy to be corrected).
