Bulletless British guns ‘useless’ in fight against ISIS, says Kurdish general

>Kurdish forces have complained that, by failing to provide ammunition with their gift of guns, Britain has effectively handed Peshmerga militias 40 useless “pieces of metal.”

>Forty Browning .50 caliber heavy machine guns were given to Peshmerga fighters in September 2014 alongside ammunition and training by British Army specialists.

>The weapons fell silent for want of rounds in 2015. A senior Kurdish officer has now complained that, after two requests for bullets, no ammunition has arrived

I think you fail to understand their true intent.

these are easily captured gifts to ISIS

U.K. MOD is probably the most incompetent part of government, and that is in a very strong field of other incompetant parts of government.

ISIS likely has .50 caliber ammunition. They make their own ammunition, the Kurds could sell them.

ayy lmao when the Russians send the superior Kord with plenty of ammo.

They would have been better off with NSVs

Damn straight. Amazing piece of kit.

Fpbp

It's pretty typical of mudslimes to blame the West for the inability to maintain the equipment they're given.

Give them a break, most brits have never seen a gun. They probably don't even know that it's supposed to spit pieces of metal, let alone from which end.

Thinking the same thing desu. What does the UK gain though? Unless king nigger put them up to this.

>Britain

Do i dare to hope it's because the brits has realised, that they are just repeating history by arming the kurds?

Isn't .50 BMG commonplace everywhere? Just get it from the Iraqi government or something you useless kurds.

Fucking low-agency niggers.

these dipshit cant just BUY ammo?

fuck. lake city would probably give them a bulk discount

lazy dune coons want free shit.

classic gibsmedat behaviour

The sand niggers will just sell the ammo anyway. I happened all the time when I was there.
They would claim to get in a firefight and come back with no ammo, and ironically very clean weapons. Of course back then we just kept giving them more and more.

>give Kurds guns and lots of ammo
>they use them
>get trigger happy
>waste all the ammo shooting wildly and for fun because no trigger discipline
>'give us more ammo'
>'no, the ammo we gave you was supposed to last a month, we're not rearming you till the end of the month'
>'waah no ammo'
How the fuck can the rest of you not see that this is what is happening

the UK shipped 61 tons of machineguns and ammo to the Kurds in the spring of 2014. Now they're complaining that they ran out and want more ammo? What ungrateful fuckers.

>oh what's that colonial you want guns, here we have guns, buy as many as you want, remember always trust an anglo

>oh what's that you wanted ammunition for the guns as well?, well i'm sure we can come up with some kind of down payment plan for you to purchase that ammunition

The UK is an Islamic State.

we binned it sorry

Maybe it's because they're the ones doing the fighting.

The British are likely under pressure from Turkey on the issue. Those guns are eventually going to turn around, so they drip feed ammo.

lol fucking britshits and their merchants eternally trying to screw over everyone.

>here's free rifles for jew!!

>sorry the bullets will cost you :^)

Not over there. Eastern Bloc would be 12.7mm, not .50 BMG. Unless you stole some NATO stock, you wouldn't have regular access to .50 BMG unless you were being gifted it. You might be able to procure some, but it's mostly a US civilian caliber.

amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2016/01/northern-iraq-satellite-images-back-up-evidence-of-deliberate-mass-destruction-in-peshmerga-controlled-arab-villages/

fuck em. if russia wants to fund their weak skirmisher army then let em waste their equipment.

the iraq army has millions of .50 bmg rounds. they regularly supply the peshmerga. this article is just russina propaganda. the russians started supplying the peshmerga and want to smear coalition forces efforts to assist them.

good, arabs are a plague
go cry to your saudi friends

>"losing" guns to isis
>isis becomes an actual threat
>finally ameriburgers have excuse to nuke shit
>ameriburgers + Пyтин happy
>world peace

That will be £1000 per bullet then
Ungrateful cunts.

Most faggots in this thread have no reading comprehension desu

What flag is that?

>Guns are sent in 2014
>They run out of ammo in 2015
>it's somehow our fault they couldn't be arsed to source more ammo in the meantime

>alongside ammunition

We gave them ammo. They used it all up.

Why don't you lobby the Polish government to send them more ammo?

because we have no interests in this region.

and we'll be damned if we arm a bunch of communist faggots.

The Kurds are an inbred pseudo-race of communists and anarchists. They're a mistake of history, if Turkey was given the go ahead for a full scale genocide it'd be the best day of my life.

Dunno, but the dune coons seem pretty unhappy with it. Maybe it insinuated that they worship a pedo. The red could symbolize little Aisha's asshole, leaking blood in all directions as Allah's prophet (pbuh) strokes his nine-incher, gearing up for round two.

why not just put tiny pieces of scrap metal into the chambers?

at least they'd raise their chance to hit shit with a barrage of scrap instead of a single bullet going into nowhere

Fair enough. But my point still stands. Don't say we didn't give them ammo, because we did. They just got all trigger happy with it and now expect us to just give them more.

mark is that you

>germans

>Empire
Tfw you realize the eternal anglo is on sunset

No
I just hate Kurds

Clearly the UK has simply forgotten how guns work, to them they are reprehensible relics of the past after all

ARMING ISLAMIC KURDS

WHAT COULD GO WRONG

To be fair, the British don't know how guns work. The woman in charge of the deal was probably not familiar with the need for ammunition.

>leaf talking about war

it worked for the russians, they even stuffed potato chunks in their guns once they ran out of ammo
at -30 degrees a fingertip sized, frozen piece of potato was deadlier than their "bullets" they were using anyway

Were breaking the conditioning

FPBP

Better than arming Saudi and Israel like your government.

>>send guns
>>forget to send ammo


Obama doesn't want his ISIS fighters to have to face any resistance.

Trolled hard

SHEIK!

No

Fucking kek. This is why you don't take weapons away from whole populations.

Brits have thought that their guns are magic laser weapons.
