Yes, we make our own small-arms and ammunition. We learnt that lesson when Sweden refused to supply us ammo for the 84mm Karl Gustav anti-tank weapons we had, during the Vietnam War.

Rumour has it that that particular ammo lot was instead sold to the UK, who promptly re-sold it to a certain Commonwealth country in need of it (without telling us about it, of course)... I can of course neither confirm nor deny whether this rumour is true :-/
