War

[DIY-HP-LED]

Good luck finding that on sale....

It's all being used in Ukraine to kill Russians. Have body armor prices gone up? How about availability? There is a shortage in Ukraine of military grade stuff and figure the CIA would be scouring the world for it. All those new Ukrainian soldiers will need it, they should have plenty of other stuff from old soviet stocks inherited by NATO.

Think about it jj, the Russians will be mostly killed by weapons their fathers built and paid for, for the most part. All the aid and loans given to Ukraine will be repaid with seized Russian money, all the advanced weapons used to kill them too. They will pay down to the last dime for their own destruction and will pay for the reconstruction of Ukraine, along with restitution for the population. Even aid agencies and individuals who helped refugees will be compensated, all from Russian money. It is fortunate the oligarchs had over a trillion bucks stashed abroad and the government probably close to another trillion. They have already paid really, the money is literally in the bank and after what they did in Ukraine, they won't get it back. So the Russians will end up paying the entire shot for starting this war, a first in history!

Or they could tell the oligarchs that they won't take their money if Vlad happens to be dead by June, then double cross them! Vlad would have a trillion dollar price on his head! They could even print posters:

WANTED DEAD OR IN CUSTODY
MAD VLAD
$1 TRILLION DOLLARS REWARD!

They could buy SpaceX and hide out on the moon.

u know there is a rumor floating around that certain people want him out......literally

He is just one man.

He may well be the richest man on Earth and with the changing of their Constitution that he did he can stay in power until he dies so what is left?
Trying to be like Stalin or some other ass and get in the history books by conquering territory.
That's what I think this is all about.
Sure there are Ukrainians that are related to Russians but in my mind what Putin is up to is more like the Nazis and their Aryan race myth stuff.

I do think Putin is "high on his own supply."

Ukraine War special report: soldiers in Kharkiv take on the Russian army - BBC News

Ukraine’s military claim that in many areas they are now pushing back Russia’s invading forces.

Tha Nagant with the sealing cam?

I think so. It is a big heavy thing with a ring for a lanyard.

The Nagant I handled was a small mid-barreled thing. I don’t think yours is that, and I don’t know Russian sidearms beyond that little curiosity.

It was the revolver Red Army officers carried in the second world war. It's upstairs in the safe and I'm too lazy to go look.

I paid an even 100 bucks. I thought it was a deal, but when I went back after the three day waiting period was up, they had another just like it in the display case. I bet they had a case of them in the back.

The one shown me was 200. I was tempted but walked away. Nobody had the brass.

I have lots of odd sizes, so I have a fellow who reloads for me. He said he could get it, but it wouldn't be cheap.

Because powder is corrosive. Eats metals upon combustion. Clean those Russian and China pieces very well. And Oil well.

It was turtleneck brass. It extended past the bullet to close the b/c gap.

Primers. Chlorate primers are the issue. Powder isn’t.

Just knew Our 7.62 x .39 and .54 single and semi-auto toys needed very good cleaning after plinking. And Brass was scrap after. TY.
Long time since buying ak/sk and sniper rounds a cardboard box full of 100 round ziplocks.

Russian corrosive primers, and I wager Berdan type; cheap to make and tough to reload.

Yes. Very cheap. Took a stout cart to wheel $150 of Russian surplus ammo from Korea and on, if not WW2, out of a gun show in MI in the 70's.
