It'd be like finding an FW-190 on blocks in a desert warehouse and chopping it up for the price of the scrap... |

Am I the only one that noticed that the shipping lable on that crate states that these rifles are replica's chambered in 22LR ?
I stand corrected if I'm wroung, but I found that to be quite peculiar.  |

Ship em here and they'll raise money fast.
Noo, obviously we can't do that, because it would be illegal, but a guy can dream right? |

imagine if that many STG44 parts kits coming in the country with torch cut recievers and chopped barrels.
There would be enough demand to have new barrels made and new recievers made. I'm sure someone like prexus would have 80% solutions in no time. Ah...those of us who like to build can only dream.

Yeah, now show me where they capture enough ammo to shoot those damn things.

Well, that explains all the STG-44's I found in Najaf.

God damn it!
Now I think I actually care about this conflict. I think we should bombard the region with phosgene for a while, then when it's safe, stroll in and load up a couple trucks with those rifles. |

Damn it! Along with the SVD, one of my Holy Grails is the 44.
Damn tired of hearing the alla ackbar in any video from that side of the world. I mean really, do they claim that when taking a shit? BTW, I will spell it like I hear it since they write in a different type. |

Great, now you've got me looking through all of the Osprey books on the Mideast armies. I'm pretty sure that the Syrians also used knockoffs of late-war German camouflage as well.

It just goes to show how many guns there are around.
After seeing the tens of thousands of rifles looted in Libya and now these you really have to wonder how many there are. Even here in the restricted UK, I saw approx 900 AK 47 type rifles just last week. All working and in various states of condition. They were all Palestinian captures from Israel that were sold on the open market for peanuts  |
