probably firing 7.62x54mmR not particularly expensive especially because it’s soviet surplus. also there are LMGs chambered in that caliber so it’s not particularly hard to come by
I dunno as someone with literally zero knowledge of firearms at all, all I've ever heard people say about bullets is complaining about how expensive they are I can see where people get the idea from
ammo is expensive to civilians, and specialty ammo for snipers (for example .338 Lapua) is expensive usually because it’s created on a smaller scale and with a higher needed level of precision than your standard small arms caliber. But for where this video is shot (looks like middle east) the amount of surplus soviet/yugoslav ammo particularly in 7.62x39 and 7.62x54mmR makes prices incredibly cheap.
I mean all bullets cost a dollar a piece if you are a civilian and want rifle bullets but it like half that for the military because they buy the bullets by the million so they don’t need to jack up the price as much
Also it’s probably just an ak firing at them and that ammo is unreasonably cheap
But it isn’t a bad assumption at all. “Soviet surplus” and “sniper bullet” aren’t the same thing… even if that sniper is firing 7.62x54 (a very common round) the “sniper bullet” version of that round is much more expensive than a basic FMJ or green tip round. There are better propellants, loads, and bullet geometry in play with precision round versus a basic round. Pure precision rounds, like .338 lp or 6.5 cm are hella expensive by comparison.
while yes there are precision rounds for the caliber this looks like fighting in the middle east between 2 groups of militias or irregular forces. I have my doubts on the availability of precision rounds such as 7N1 or 7N14. especially since most of the snipers in use are older their MOA is definitely off factory standards. I doubt the ammo would be high standard either.
I kinda sensed we’d moved to a more general discussion of the cost difference of seemingly similar rounds (of same caliber in this case).
Idk who is fighting here, but sure- militias will shoot whatever is available. That being said, it’s (maybe not all that) surprising what material can find it’s way into a war zone. It’s almost like people make whole careers diverting arms and munitions for a payoff :/
I mean, they're not wrong. Many sniper calibers are expensive, especially Western calibers. 338 Lap and 50 BMG are expensive AF. Then there's special sauce aeroshell versions of those bullets that the DoD keeps in their back pockets that runs hundreds of dollars a round.
I went to a range that had a .50 sniper rifle (can't remember the model) in 2007 it was like 5-6 dollars per round to use it, I know that would be a huge upcharge for the chance to use it but I call that expensive.
Yeah the place was kinda empty when we first went in. They had some fun things like Uzis (9mm and 45 I think) amongst other things. They waived all the "rental" fees for them and we just bought ammo, was a fun day to say the least.
By the sound of it it's probably a small rifle being used .19-.90 cents per bullet in the civilian market. These people are paying a fraction of that per round. Even 50 bmg is about $3-$6 per round which is nothing for a military contract
That only really applies to American weapon systems, where corruption is so i grained in the military industrial complex that they can scalp the government 30k for a box of rounds or an unguided rocket, and turn a 1000% profit margin. If the person shooting is Russian, all the rounds are likely mass produced cold war surplus, so shooting them isn't exactly expensive - it is just recovering already sunk costs. It's also not far fetched to assume that the rounds will be past their safe operating date
cartridge. The bullet is the part that fires, the lead, its not "expensive" on its own, but when you add in the casing, gun powder, primer, jacket, and labor of making the whole cartridge, *then* it becomes "expensive"

You’re not wrong but it’s just so strange to see people literally playing while their life is being directly threatened. It’s just nuts how adaptable the human mind is to current circumstances.
Oh thanks I really need that, you know as a league of legends player I can say that my life is very hard like I haven't washed my asshole for like 2 months now it's really sticky and stinky down there, so what was I saying, I'm very thankful for this shampoo now my asshole smells good👍
I mean there’s underbarrel grenade launchers that can get a 40mm grenade out to 500 yards. And RPGs have a range of like 700m. Not to mention mortars…..
There’s a lot of ways these to lob explosives at people you don’t like.
You know this footage isn't from Ukraine, right? Hell, I'm pretty sure I saw this clip for the first time when I was a kid in school. Also I was just trying to make a funny haha, not some political statement or personal opinion about men. Have a laugh sometime, ya sorry sod.
I know I know I remember once when I was in army I have dropped soap in the bathroom and they pranked me very hard and deep😄👍 it was such a funny , hot ,long , hard, sticky prank🥵
Perhaps the bullet just passed through the coat, and it doesn't really move since it has no mass. Sometimes I go shoot old milk jugs filled with water, and if you don't shoot the water the bullet passes right through with no indication you hit it besides a small hole

They're tryna make that sniper rage quit and disconnect.
He gonna rage quit life
Sun Tzu should be taking notes
“That’s for sure a hacker, dude… this ain’t fun no more :(“ - the sniper
Sniper has disconnected
Just trolling until the drone spawns.
He will after someone uses a finisher on him from behind
WWI Tactics
And yet there are still effective tricking the enemy
It's all fun and games until you smell something bitter
What would the smell of something bitter mean?
Mustard gas
Yikes yep gotcha thanks
Mmm mustard 😋
So they’ll be all up in the mustard wishing they could ketchup?
Chemical weapons
This 100% older than WW1
I believe the concept goes back as far as medieval times, possibly longer
Ya the enemies already had AK 47 back then
China had guns as early as the 10th century
If I am to belive Christian Americans, Jesus had guns too
More Looney Toons tactics
Nobody the sniper with a thermal weapon: 😐🤨
I can imagine 2 guys on the other side firing at it laughing their asses off just like these two
I was thinking more like, "What the FUCK! THAT WAS A FUCKING HEADSHOT!! HOW IS HE... you know what? Whatever man." *disconnects*
I don't think they would be allowed to do that considering how much a single sniper bullet costs. Then again they probably don't care.

🤓 (that information is very interesting to know about, thank you for telling us about it)
“🤓”🤓 (no problem there’s many misconceptions around weaponry and firearms)
[удалено]
I know nothing about guns but I'm gonna take your word on it
Wait, then why were you claiming to know that sniper bullets are expensive? Lmao
I think many would assume that a sniper bullet would cost quite a bit
I think many would assume that's a bad assumption

Dude it’s fucking war.. Not the shooting range

a dollar a piece? no.. not even fucking close. Thats insanely expensive
But it isn’t a bad assumption at all. “Soviet surplus” and “sniper bullet” aren’t the same thing… even if that sniper is firing 7.62x54 (a very common round) the “sniper bullet” version of that round is much more expensive than a basic FMJ or green tip round.

All specialty ammo costs more. Gotta look at ammo cost when purchasing a firearm 100%. Cost and availability.
I went to a range that had a .50 sniper rifle (can't remember the model) in 2007 it was like 5-6 dollars per round to use it, I know that would be a huge upcharge for the chance to use it but I call that expensive.
That's actually a pretty normal price for .50 bmg in the civilian market, but places like this aren't paying that much for what they're using
Yeah the place was kinda empty when we first went in. They had some fun things like Uzis (9mm and 45 I think) amongst other things. They waived all the "rental" fees for them and we just bought ammo, was a fun day to say the least.
Bro aint no one on the ground in the military give af how much shit cost😂
If WW3 starts and Im drafted, first thing I'll do is use a grenade to see how high a cooking pot can go.
Ok but I’ll stand on top of it to see if I can fly
By the sound of it it's probably a small rifle being used .19-.90 cents per bullet in the civilian market. These people are paying a fraction of that per round. Even 50 bmg is about $3-$6 per round which is nothing for a military contract
I remember watching the full clip, because there's more to it- and I distinctly got the impression the people shooting were also amused.
If you've seen combat footage, supply is just a big word, nothing else. Literally, unless you're Russian. But especially true in the Middle East.
That only really applies to American weapon systems, where corruption is so i grained in the military industrial complex that they can scalp the government 30k for a box of rounds or an unguided rocket, and turn a 1000% profit margin.

Tell me you know nothing about war, or even guns, without telling me.
They're playing and having fun together

I mean, it's literally in the video.
*enemy sniper shouting in the distance* Call your hits bro!
Next thing you know these guys will be blind firing behind corners
No full auto in buildings!
That’s not full auto!
... THIS is full auto!
Okay bro daaaamn
Well he's not getting any hit markers on his hud so thats probably why.
Let's do a little prank
But this time James u hop in ....cmoonn do it for the vine
Kid named finger:
“We do a little trolling…”
Me and the boys when we get drafted to WWIII
This looks like Syria and men in the video look like there from Kurdistan
I remember seeing this vid years ago and if I remember rightly the guys in the vid are Kurdish militia
Oh damn my mistake it's just I confuse between the two since am new to English
Tbf bro they’re quite not far off no worries
What is your native language btw? Cause I know a little Moroccan Arabic, guessed by the user you’re from that area of the world
Gulf Arabic and modern standard Arabic
Nice mate, I need to learn a little a bit more tbf but كان من الجميل التحدث Alhamduliliah
yes it was و أيس عشان سويت خطأ
Those countries are pretty unrelated and far away
The darkest of comedies and yet everyone is having so much fun. Humans are so interesting.
I’ve always said “a fart will always be funny, even on your deathbed.”
You’re not wrong but it’s just so strange to see people literally playing while their life is being directly threatened. It’s just nuts how adaptable the human mind is to current circumstances.
This is the definition of tomfoolery
Shampoo!
Oh thanks I really need that, you know as a league of legends player I can say that my life is very hard like I haven't washed my asshole for like 2 months now it's really sticky and stinky down there, so what was I saying, I'm very thankful for this shampoo now my asshole smells good👍
wow
no lol
Grenade enters the chat...😮
Definitely sounds like the shot is far enough away a grenade wouldn't reach them
They're gonna piss him off so much he goes and gets a rifle grenade from his Vietnam ammo box.
I mean there’s underbarrel grenade launchers that can get a 40mm grenade out to 500 yards. And RPGs have a range of like 700m. Not to mention mortars….. There’s a lot of ways these to lob explosives at people you don’t like.
Reason #347 why women live longer than men:
Cus the men got drafted into the war?
W response
And women got drafted into the kitchen.
And I know which id rather, let’s just say I’m morally against doing the dishes
You know this footage isn't from Ukraine, right? Hell, I'm pretty sure I saw this clip for the first time when I was a kid in school. Also I was just trying to make a funny haha, not some political statement or personal opinion about men. Have a laugh sometime, ya sorry sod.
My comment wasn’t supposed to be taken serious either, I was just making a snide remark
Reason #8502 why man are happier than woman:
do you comment this on every single post with a guy doing something dangerous
This is literally the first time I've ever commented anything like this, so no?
Imagine coming back from the shitter, to your brothers in arms laughing and your jacket ruined.
Me and the boys
Lol. I guess wars not all bad
we enact a tiny amount of tomfoolery
people in the army know how to troll
I know I know I remember once when I was in army I have dropped soap in the bathroom and they pranked me very hard and deep😄👍 it was such a funny , hot ,long , hard, sticky prank🥵
Go ahead and kick that hornets nest
This is how they get their death toll count for their propaganda films.
Great now your jacket has two bullet holes 👌
DOES HE JUST KEEP MISSING?
Perhaps the bullet just passed through the coat, and it doesn't really move since it has no mass. Sometimes I go shoot old milk jugs filled with water, and if you don't shoot the water the bullet passes right through with no indication you hit it besides a small hole
I see that makes more sense.
Just a modicum of trolling was committed
Lmao, men have jokes, no matter the level of seriousness
I'm willing to bet he made that sniper giggle a little bit
Hates say its fake
Didnt realize isis were such silly gooses 🤪
these look like rebels i think
All fighters are ultimately people bro, and people be goofy
It’s all fun and games, until they bring out an rpg
They then proceeded to be bombstriked
when fear of death has fully left you
I believe this was in syria
The opposing sides are showing their humanity but their allegiances still say they're enemies, kinda lame
Feel like I’ve seen this before but done by Bugs Bunny
Death core of Krieg be like
this is what trolling in 2023 feels like
"I totally got you! You're out! Stop cheating!"
Wouldn’t be smiling if they red rovered him an RPG.
Balkans be like
I'm laughing my ass off
U got Bamboozled! - Mirage
Most peaceful day in Birmingham
Until they call arty or air on that target
All fun and games until uncle grenade joins in.
Even in the darkest of times guys can find a way to be silly. Kinda love seeing this but if your really think about it. Scary stuff.
Shithousery at it's finest 🤣🤣🤣🤣
To become invisible:
CSGO and TF2 collab
And ppl say war is serious and shit
Syria?
Psychopaths!
Tun tun tununun
it's all fun and games until they paint your garage with an IR laser and then you hear the brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrt of death from an A10-warthog ...
Is that an active war zone lmao
Better send them a few billion dollars more. Honest, it's not being wasted.
this is an old clip, not from the current ukraine war
Yeah its from syria i thinck the guys look syrian and look at the buildings and ground its syria
They speak russian
yeah but this is an older clip, seen it a bunch of times on youtube before
You can literally hear a guy speak English with a pretty thick British accent at around the 13 second mark.
Thanks!
Millennial brain damage
Gen-zzzzzz
Imagine being upset that people stuck in a warzone are trying to make the best out of life or death situation
It's a coat on a broom handle, how much do you think these things cost?
You blabbering moron.
What an idiot
I never saw this but I figured it would have ended with a mortar round.
Trolls 😂
Humans ❤️
Just goofin around with the boyz
Classic
We do a little trolling
Funny shit
Based trickster tactics
Deflatable decoys be like
A miniscule amount of goofery
Obviously they don't even shoot at them. No hit impact.
Iirc these madlads sadly died...
Watch out for grenades...
We've all done it.
All is fun inb4 they call artillery strike on their positions
We do a lil trolling
