It's amazing they didn't kill each other with the crossfire.

An 870 pump would’ve been handier

If you hadn’t told me what was about to happen, I’d have been 100 percent certain those two Russian/Ukranian idiots were about to shoot each other in the face.

The ammo is pretty scarce these days. I think the precise name of the round is 5.45x39.

A lot of its dimensions are based off the old AK-47 round, but ballistically it's more similar to the .223 caliber AR-15 cartridge.

Plain old AK-47 ammo is the better part of a dollar per round right now, so I couldn't even tell you what a box of AK-74 ammo would cost.

Drone warfare is absolutely terrifying and I'm glad I never had to deal with it. Has to be the most helpless feeling in the world. Nothing to defend yourself against it.

A SBE III with a Muller choke has got to be cheaper than that Ak-74.

NSFW. Here is a video of a drone retrieving an AK from a dead Russian soldier
