Ukraine war Bullshit.

All the morons defending Ukraine here, you realize EU has admitted crossing the red lines they knew Russia had stated. And they were buying time to arm up Ukraine in preparation for a battle they were causing. This isn't rocket science. Too bad the last thread got nuked, it had all the evidence plain to see with admissions.
It did but the first thread was only locked.

Should be interesting in hindsight as it was started approx two months before the war. A lot of the links still work and show ghost of Kiev, pensioner shooting down Mig with rifle shotgun and fake Bucha footage in what was real time.

Ukraine war Bullshit.

After three years if you weren’t fighting for your country, what the fuck are you doing there?

Because this is where the real work is done.

Know what's more dangerous than Russian bullets and bombs? The dreaded Russian "misinformation" 😱

People like @nkk and @SNB are doing the real work by combatting Russian "misinformation" online, while the losers are fighting in the trenches.

Some real tier 1 shit. Sad you don't appreciate that. We have some real badasses amongst us.

Ukraine war Bullshit.

Ukraine was handed an out at recent negotiations. Instead they want to continue this shit not realizing the ME takes precedence.

Our resources are finite, and Ukraine is definitely going to take a back seat to the bigger leech Israel.

A war in the ME will definitely divert resources away from Ukraine.

I would be happy to cut off Ukraine, but to do so because of a ME war that will be more disastrous than the Iraq War is nothing to celebrate.

Barrel cleaning with alcohol

FWIW…..
Alcohol used to be recommended as a Black Powder solvent (by Sam Fadala, no less). I used it for years and still will if I’m shooting a lot rounds through a muzzleloader at the range (which I rarely do anymore).
It will help chew through black powder fouling, then evaporate quickly after a dry patch.
I would not use alcohol as a last step before I put any rifle away, as it strips any oxidation protection from the barrel.
If one pulled a well oiled barrel from the safe, an alcohol patch or two might help mitigate any effect the oil might have on the first round or two, but that’s really the only reason I could see using it in a smokeless rifle.
I was always told just use warm water and soap. I used hot water and soap and followed with dry patches and eventually a oil patch.
