Speaking of my AK Project rifle, the guy who owned it previously (I acquired as part of an estate sale after the guy passed away  :( ) seemingly was preparing for something pretty darn serious.  While he had some nice firearms in the collection, he had a number of SHTF firearms and setup to what at Ieast I perceived as pretty purpose driven.  One example is how he had the AK ammo setup in his ammo cans.  When I saw it and how it was setup, I was like  :o

Keep this in mind just about every country in the world has factories that make
7.62X39 mm ammo.
Not very many factories make 5.56X45 mm ammo.
Next gun control efforts will be ammo control.

If you’re prepping for the collapse of civilization then the most common calibers world wide definitely make sense.

Just viewed a video of a Ukranian man in his vehicle coming up upon a lone Russian tank on a desolate road out of nowhere.

The Ukrainian man asked the Russian tank crew if their vehicle broke down.

The tank crew responded, saying they ran out of gas.

The Ukranian man then asked:  "Would you like me to tow you back to Russia?"

The Russian tank crew laughed........

This has got to be the weirdest "war" ever.  I think this is what happens when the conflict is between 2  sets of people who are just like distant cousins, speaking similar languages, and sharing similar cultures. :crazy:

Here we go, spending money we don't have.  But yeah, some people (the chosen ones) will be making a lot of money off this "war".

I wonder how much ammunition will go along with that weapon......

And no, Hawaii would do no such thing.  I mentioned in another thread that Hawaii would probably roll out the red carpet to the invaders and kermit will be at the forefront, with leis and his goofy retarded smile.

Oh, and HPD will hand over the gun registration lists to the invaders.  That's why if it happens in Hawaii we need to lock and load.  We won't be going to the fight.  The fight will come to you when the invaders get the list from HPD.

Yes I remember that post lol. And idk how much ammo/ mags they were giving out but watching an interview it appeared possibly they got a couple spare mags each in the thumbnail. Cant quite make sure of it tho so I could be wrong.

Regarding another post, ukraine is doing a pretty good job. Or atleast appears to be. Even though ukraine is outnumbered, their desire to be free from Putin is what is driving them. That and the homefield advantage. That "ghost of kyiv" is pretty badass if his stats are legit. Iirc 6 confirm kills in 1 day. Su 25, 27 shot down. I'm sure y'all seen the missle strike that apartment complex, now that was cool af, sorry ukraine. I hope no one died tho. A youtuber said "this will probably be the best documented war yet" I guess cause of the amount of cameras everyone has. Which is true.

I saw one video where they showed them handing out the weapons to the civilians.  Then when the civilians were ready to leave to go fight, several of them reached down and grabbed what looked like a wooden ammo crate, complete with handle so you can grab it like a suitcase.  My guess would be the crate held a 1000 rounds at the very least. Probably more.

Not sure if each crate was for like a team of civilians.  Yeah it would suck if each weapon issued only came with one mag.  If so, hopefully these civilians will work in teams and use fire discipline, where while some are firing, the others are loading.  Rinse and repeat.

Agree that this "war" is unique in so many ways.  With the advances in social media technology it's almost like watching a play by play broadcast of a football bowl game.  Also there are so much video of weird encounters between the Russians and Ukrainians.

In many ways the adversaries are very much alike in ethnicity, language, and culture.

Only for those who wish to understand the major facets and complexities about what happening in Ukraine, hear from former US Marine veteran Scott Ritter.

As I feared, the US empire and its European proxy NATO's eastward expansion to militarily surround Russia has taken the rest of the World one-step closer to human extinction.

Curious as to what that means.
Most my time in Strategic Air Command we were at DEFCON 3.
Vietnam was still happening.
DEFCON 5 is Kinetic war.

I mentioned earlier about biden's recent 350 million plus in military aid to Ukraine.  I wondered if it's a bit late being that the skies above Ukraine is shut down and the airports are under siege or control of the Russians.

The US will try to send the military aid through the borders of Poland and Romania.  Several of our congressmen are voicing concern about Russia deciding to stop them at the border and also heeding what Putin mentioned earlier threatening Western allies who try to interfere with the Ukrainian struggle.

Like I mentioned earlier, kinda too late yeah, Brandon?

Let's go Brandon.  Forever and ever.  And twice on Sunday.

In the words of the Chechen Republic President, whose people are no lovers of Russians for sure, explains why he supports, and his soldiers will die to defend Russian security against the US empire / NATO expansion.  Translation located in description section.

The fake "Left" of the US empire vs the real "Left " of Europe.  The fake "Left" want empire, while the real "Left" as seen in Italy tells the situation as it really is and wants peace.  Translation is in the description section.

I have to wonder myself, if a intergovernmental military body comprised of our enemies were trying to pull Mexico into their pact and potentially put troops right on our border, or say block off a major food source to America what would we do?

Fist, you'd be assuming the Mexican Government is in charge there.  They are not.  The drug cartels are in charge.

Second, the cartels would have to agree to having a foreign country move into an area the drug suppliers need open to move their product.  They would need to be allowed free passage, or there would be a fight to keep them out.

Third, the flow of illegals would have to stop, because the new "neighbors" would not be able to tolerate the lack of security that situation brings.

Lastly, the Mexican Government would have to be prepared for the US backlash should they allow the stationing of military weapons.  That alone would make Mexico and the US adversaries, something I believe the Mexican government would try to avoid.  Their new "friends" would have to be able to promise them at least as much as what they get from the US without even addressing what the Cartels would be losing.

Look at what the sanctions against Cuba has done to that country over a few decades.  Mexico would be in an even worse position due to the shared border with us.
