From Russia with love
on: October 25, 2025, 10:02:14 PM
Greetings to all from the South-West of Russia. I just rode a bear from the taiga, shook off the snow, took off my hat, earflaps, balalaika. I hung a Kalashnikov assault rifle on the wall. But I'm interested in a few questions about SAK. And here I am. English is not my native language, artificial intelligence translates, all questions to it, if something is wrong, correct me.
Or maybe you also want me to give you the key to the apartment where the money is?

Thank you for the warm welcome. The bear refuses to be photographed. As for the assault rifle, it looks like this. In Russia, individuals are prohibited from owning rifled automatic weapons, including those with a short barrel. I got this air rifle as a gift from an old hunter. And the rifle was made when Nixon was president.
Or maybe you also want me to give you the key to the apartment where the money is?

And when firearms are restricted, you have to come up with something. For this occasion, I have a Soviet special forces entrenching tool. One is in the car, the other in the hallway. I love it when guests come over. Carrying a baseball bat in the car is the height of indecency. I heard that Cold Steel tried to counterfeit a special forces shovel like this.

Лопата – друг солдата! The OG multitool. Deserves its place on this forum for sure. The Cold Steel knockoff lives in my shed and in my trunk. Made of inferior capitalist steel, but good bang for the buck.

Very nice,  is it a 22 cal rifle barrel? 
I have one fitted with a RedDot.

Target bullseyes are devoured mostly for entertainment.

I sure do like that entrenching tool. It would be a handy item to put in a camping kit. As for the firearms...let's just say I'm thankful to live in the States. But would an automatic firearm with a smooth bore be legal in Russia? :think:

The rifle in the photo above has a 4.5 mm caliber.
As for the law on weapons, hunting smoothbore weapons and some models of rifled hunting carbines are allowed in Russia under certain conditions. You don't get around much.
But as a result, there are practically no areas in cities where the police cannot enter or it is scary to appear there at night.
If you sacrifice one thing, you gain something else.
Or maybe you also want me to give you the key to the apartment where the money is?
