    While this was a nice gesture, would 101 random weapons bought off equally random Florida Men all at least share the same ammo? A gun’s just an awkward club without proper ammo.

      The ones in the picture are likely a mix of 5.56 and 7.62 firearms. Both Ukraine would have in abundance

        Heaps of 7.62 here. Not so many 5.56 or 9mm, you have to import it, AK74 uses incompatible Soviet 5.45 caliber.

        Assault rifles are welcome, anything is better than standard-issue AK74, which combines excess weight with poor accuracy and awkward handling. Even smaller guns are fine, SMGs are pretty much the same 200 meter effective range as AK while being shorter. As long as you can find ammo for them.

        Please send some grenade launchers and RPGs, they are immediately useful.

          I wish I had some spares but I have to hold on to everything I’ve got, sorry.

          (For the non-americans and ATF agents out there, the joke is that we can’t fucking get those. Don’t come kill my dog, my dog is a cat anyway.)
