Yeah the image didn’t have any context and it was in a Yemen solidarity post. I assume these are mobilized people’s defense units of some sort and pretty low on the priority list for getting fresh arms. It is still a cool pic and people kind of meme on the Mosin so I thought to share. Someone in the news mega posted a nakedcapitalism article about Colombia threatening to move away from US-supplied armaments, I don’t know much more than what I learn here but it’ll be interesting to see how that shakes out.
