Qu daffy has bombed his arms depots so if we want surplus ammo from him, it is going to be less than what we expect.......like components or parts & pieces!

I love my Izzy FAL,, that being said, I think I saw one of the Rebel fighters trying to clear a jamb on a FAL,, yanking away on the bolt,,, not a confidence builder. I'd have to go with an AK or the G 3 myself,,, or an RPG

Not sure what the nomenclature is for the single,twin & quad AA guns. Anyone else see anything?
ZPU-2 and ZPU-4s melted a few of those with thermite grenades. Really tear the hell out of the reciever blocks.

RP46 is the belt fed version of the DPM.

I've seen a couple of ZU23's (twin 23mm Soviet AA's) both on the ground and in the back of some trucks. Mind you, the trucks look a little 'undersized' for the task of hauling this around - let alone providing any type of stability when it's in action !
