I can’t think of one thing hamas could make that I’d trust, including a suicide vest.

Well, their tunnels look pretty substantial and they’ve made an art of turning water and sewer pipes into rockets. And don’t forget Hamas has also made a lot of money for their leaders.

Ian knows his stuff. He’s played a part in the manufacturing of a few weapons. His biggest is the KP-15, an all polymer AR-15 lower and the “What Would Stoner Do?” rifle.

They were trying to immolate what the Kurds in N Syria built. They called them Zagros rifles, for the Zagros mountains.

They actually worked very well.

Kurds were the good guys who extinguished ISIS.

They literally took apart and pieced back together shitty, inaccurate Iranian rifles for propaganda.

A 7lb. Rifle firing a .338 Lapua hurts just thinking about it.

A 9lb. Remington 700 in .300 Win Mag hurts. A 7lb. rifle in .338 Lapua is crippling. Being perpendicular to the muzzle blast is numbing.

God bless and heal artillery guys!

"AM-50s have been captured in Palestine as well as other places before, and they've had other markings."

All rifles are sniper rifles.
