Good.

Not like it would be all that hard to find somebody willing to slowly loose (ie, sell) arms of Chinese manufacture to Western military and intelligence agencies for just this type of PSYOP.

Or, you know, china sold to Iran, or another third party which then smuggled them into Gaza. Do people think Gaza is home cooking rpg-7s? I doubt they can manufacture much more than a sten gun.

they have a surprising amount of production down in those tunnels. We’ve already seen videos demonstrating the CNC guys making a sniper rifle and explosives experts making a homegrown PG-7VR

Forgotten Weapons analyzed the video and said it was fake. It’s possible that they didn’t want to expose their process since we know they’re actually capable of home grown weapons.

known chud channel, zero faith in them being accurate. The asshole wrote a book sucking off azov.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Completely agree with the overall channel assessment, but I will say coming from a manufacturing background the point about not using coolant when turning the barrel is pretty true, but I genuinely think they’re probably just hiding their manufacturing process.

Good to know, thanks for the knowledge.

He didn't actually write it, his company was going to publish it. Still a sign of shit judgement/morals.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago

ah yes the heady days when most english speaking people would acknowledge that azov are nazis after reading about them for two minutes

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Good correction, I did misremember that

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago

he did side against the "second amendment is for everyone" lib shit coming from his former collaborator.

he plays neutral well in his regular videos but neutrality means siding with the oppressor

[–] [email protected] 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Well that's good to hear. but in any case, I'm sure they've smuggled in any number of weapons from "Bad Country" simply because said country makes a lot of cheap guns.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago

fair, I just wanted to make sure people knew Gaza is making at least some of the tools they are liberating themselves with.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

Yup.

(Also, they could probably cobble together everything except the actual explosive charge with enough punch to do damage to armor.)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

They've actually surprised me, they can make pretty decent anti-material rifles

[–] [email protected] 14 points 10 months ago (1 children)

True, but, I mean, the Chinese break the blockade against the DPRK all the time; I could definitely see them doing this (basically, looking the other way, essentially).

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

Maybe...

I guess it would explain a bit better the statement some Chinese official made (and was posted somewhere around hexbear a few weeks? ago) about China supporting the "Two State Solution".

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Could be somthing infinitely dumber like some of the raw materials the Palestinians using having Chinese writing on them since they came from China. Like in like 2006 or something the Israelis were claiming Hamas had Chinese rockets because the water pipes they were using to make rockets were from China. It's been a meme for a while.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Damnit... the most obvious thing and I didn't even think of that... hangs head in shame
