Since Andy mentioned it while I was placing a pre-order, I think it's something worth repeating:
Get 5.45 ammo NOW and in quantity. The second half is already done for you since spam cans are big and contain cheap, high quality ammo (though corrosive). Since Obama and his followers have already shown a willingness to meddle with surplus firearm importation, it is a very real possibility that we could see bans or new red tape on ammo, especially military surplus ammo. Aside from Hornaday's rather pricey 5.45 (over 50 cents a round despite being steel case and would likely skyrocket in price if ammo availability became an issue), there aren't any domestic manufacturers.
The good news? 5.45 AKs are much less prevalent than 7.62 AKs, which means that you shouldn't have as much trouble finding cheap ammo.
