Sorry if this has been posted already. It looks like Keltec is sending 400 of their sub2000 rifles for the Ukraine resistance. God Bless !!!

Why don’t they just send something useful in a real war like something chambered in 5.56.. hope those Ukrainians can get close enough and pull off some head shots and take the Russians AK’s

You are correct that 5.56 is a more powerful round and an AR would be great however how readily and plentiful is 5.56mm ammo in that area ??? I believe 9mm is widespread and the ability to collapse, fold, hide, and transport make it an excellent opportunity weapon. Plus it is better than nothing. Just my humble opinion. God Bless !!!

Already posted last week in the Ukraine "Global War" thread:

Of recent note was the bombing of $400 million in supplies sent to Ukraine, all sitting in one warehouse, yet to be distributed.

There are also bulk supplies of ammo being sent, it has a long trip to make it there. Just the logistics. Having worked in an Area Group HQ's in the reserves, this is what we did - both out of the box in Irwin and in the box at Polk.

It's a war, no guarantee it will make it into a soldiers hands, and like other wars in the past, graft and profiteering may repurpose it to other countries.

They had a contract with someone in the Ukraine, and Keltec has been sitting on them for some time-no show on the other end. So they decided to send them over.

Wait, what If I wanted to buy one? I'm entitled to have what someone else produces, especially if their might be some shortage or other impact to my finding one hanging off an endcap in any store USA.

I mean, we got this here depression on, I gotta do for me and mine.

Like ammo- manufactures can't just give it away, like it is theirs's to give.

This is America.
