its interesting. The American special forces were often running around with soviet guns, for plausible deniability. Didn't know it was the same the other way around.

[bkfrtz-1978]

can you imagine a gunfight between US and Soviet Special forces inside a neutral country and both sides deny they've been there, but the casings found, match to Soviet and US weapons anyways?

[cowpokeredeemed]

Enough current Russian SF have been seen carrying AR’s or using 5.56 AK’s where it’s not that far fetched. The real interesting part is if they’re sourcing or manufacturing the ammo. Imagine that same scenario but it’s all Lake City manufactured 5.56 casings everywhere. With how much of the supplies we send Ukraine/Israel/anywhere immediately hit the black market it’s entirely possible they have pallets of M855/M193
