    I just realized their native built sniper rifles are only single shot bolt action. I kept wondering why they were handling loose ammo in these videos, but now that totally makes sense. They don’t have magazines. I thought it was just cool sniper theatrics, but it’s actually quite utilitarian.

      Yeah true, I doubt they have the time to have to manufacture magazines. Alot of their IEDs are re-purposed IDF unexplored ordinance. They’re pretty resourceful

          Israelis consider them “savages” while hiding in the sky with western funding. Meanwhile the Palestinian Resistance remains steadfast and manufactures their own weapons of war with scraps. They have resolve and bravery, something the colonist scum will never have.

    fuck I looked it up and that’s a 14.5x114mm. I thought it was going to be a .50/12.7
