Have you guys seen the photos of the massive shipment of guns the Navy just interdicted on it's way to Yemen in the Arabian Sea? Too bad the military can't keep semi-auto trophy's anymore...would love to see all those real Dragonov's available - looks like a lot of .50 cal sniper rifles too - not to mention all the things we can't have like man pads, RPGs, and thousands of full auto Chinese AKs...

Get this, the shipment was intercepted in international waters so the guys on the Dow were provided with food and water and sent on their way. If one of us was caught with only one of these it would be 10 years in Federal Prison...yeah..ok...

Holy cow, that's a haul. God bless our sailors. 'Hope they keep intercepting. The world is becoming a much more dangerous place with you-know-who squinting and screeching. That whiney, lecturing voice already goes through my head like a nail. bang

That’s probably what they will say but when everyone looks away they will secretly sell them to ISIS and pocket the cash.


Huge find though,,

Then, alliances will flip and those weapons will be pointed at us. We gave the Iraqis weapons to fight our enemy, the Iranians. After that conflict ended, our boys and girls were staring down those barrels.

Oooohhh.. PKMs. I have a scar on my left arm from getting careless while shooting a PKM. The casings are ejected out and downwards a bit. During a full auto string of fire (prone) I allowed my left elbow to creep a little far forward and it got burned by hot brass. I felt like the PKM was surprisingly accurate and controllable. We shot IPSC steel at 500 yards with a surprisingly high degree of accuracy. Can’t imagine being shot at with one..

Loading the belts with a hand crank loader was cool too.

What would we do if another country stole weapons we were selling to an ally?

I wonder how long it took them to put all those weapons on the deck of that ship?
That's a whole lot of weapons!

It's a sad day when the most powerful navy on the planet is reduced to engaging in acts of piracy.

Would love to have one of those Dragunovs. I had a true Tiger Dragunov about 15 years ago....

It was an illegal arms shipment from Iran to Iranian backed rebels...would you rather those same arms be pointed at US Soldiers someday in the future? I am glad they did not get to where they were intended.

No Creedmoor’s? They are definitely still in the dark ages.

The side of absolute freedom. Every individual on the planet has the right to possessing arms for their defense even if we don't agree with what they're doing with them.

Remember the old saying about one man's Freedom Fighter is another man's terrorist?

It would be in our best interest to arm both sides so both sides had the means to kill one another.
