Did you know unintentional shootings spike during the holidays? If you’re hosting friends and family, as always, store your firearms securely. If you’re visiting the homes of loved ones, ask about safe firearm storage. bradyunited.org/resources/re...

Firearms stored unlocked and loaded are a recipe for tragedy. This Thanksgiving, let’s prevent unintentional shootings by ensuring all guns are locked, unloaded, and stored separately from ammunition. #SafeStorageSavesLives #EndFamilyFire

More weapons!

Here are some more firearms used in the war, a lot of the Katskayan guns have integral suppressors or an integrally suppressed version, while Auroris uses more external suppressors.

Yuri Chornomorets morning update for 19th Nov 🎯

Among the .375 super rifles, snipers love the CheyTac Firearms M200 Intervention rifle with a 29-inch barrel. This weapon is a bit crudely made, but is generally reliable after a little tweaking.

Аccording to Bild, Ukrainian Armed Forces have deployed the ultra-powerful 2S7 Pion artillery near Toretsk.

Recently, the United States supplied shells of this caliber, manufactured in the 1950s-60s for the M110 and M115 guns.

Nobody on Bluesky has any respect for the NRA anyway, but sheesh they literally do not know how to handle firearms. The video is clearly Walz unloading, and he's doing it the right way, so the action doesn't cycle and he catches the shell.
