They still import some Norinco ammo here, I've only seen 7.62x39 and 7.62x25 in recent imports. I thing the 9x18mm Mak is not popular enough up here for them to be bothered with bringing in new stuff. Oddly they dont seem to be bringing in Chinese 9x19mm Luger ammo, it must not be cost competitive enough.

Not that long ago we had a group of guys that traveled about working a circuit of shows. Many covered specific niches like slings and holsters, Mil-surp rifles of various countries, gun parts, ammo, pistol and rifle magazines, or books. For the most part, they were friends, and made referrals to each other. Us long timers knew them as well, and could easily find them for particular wants. Many other tables were occupied by private individuals thinning out their collections. Sounds like old fogey lore now.

Pretty good haul there? Must have been fun carrying all that around. There's rarely much good stuff at the local gun show but I got lucky and saw a pre 1899 cheapo revolver. It was missing parts so I got it at a fair price . Making the parts was a fun project. Now it's probably worth $20 more. I did a crappy KZfaq video on it that I need to reshoot. Thanks for the videos
