Lithuanian border service refuses Kalashnikov assault rifles

Switching to a new type of automatic weapons officers of the State Border Guard Service of Lithuania will take place after the settlement of legal and technical aspects. Thus, the Lithuanian border service abandons the Kalashnikov assault rifles, released between 1957 and 1992, replacing them with other small arms.

According to the LRT TV channel, this was announced by the Minister of Internal Affairs of Lithuania Agne Bilotaite at a meeting of the State Defense Council.

She complained that the problem of rearmament of border guards has not been solved for 25 years, but she managed to agree on this issue with the Minister of National Defense of the republic.

The equipment of our employees must be replaced with modern ones that meet the highest standards. Because today, in today's conditions, it is a pity that the State Border Service employees still have such weapons.

- said Madame Minister.

At the moment, the main small arms of the Lithuanian army are the German G36 (Gewehr 36) assault rifles produced by Heckler & Koch. They entered Lithuania for the first time in 2009.

The army of this Baltic republic also received its very first submachine guns after the proclamation of independence from Germany. And these were ... Kalashnikov assault rifles. After 2014, Lithuania delivered some of these decommissioned weapons to Ukraine.

Their GPS, in conditions when no one encroaches on the borders of Lithuania (the hysteria fanned by them about "Russian military threat"- does not count), PP Heckler & Koch MP-5 - behind the eyes.

Why do they also need G36 assault rifles (Gewehr 36)?

I wrote and remembered that our Ukrainian non-brothers, on the eve of the anniversary of the beginning of the Second World War, were marked by another pearl, about how the USSR, along with Hitler, occupied part of Finland, the entire Baltic region and ... Ukraine and Belarus

And at the same time, something was neglected by Moldova, not at all reflecting the "annexation" of Bessarabia

The collaborationist colonial administration of Latvia consistently fulfills all orders and instructions of the US State Department / Pentagon.

1. Morally the US State Department is implementing a program to create an anti-Russian Latvia, as such - "Latvia - ANTI-RUSSIA"
For this it is necessary to take the consciousness of Latvians and all citizens of Latvia away from the memory of its entry into the USSR as far as possible.
They have already destroyed Soviet monuments. And the Soviet armament is also like a monument.
AK is also a kind of Soviet-Russian fetish, reminding the citizens of the Tribaltika of the times of entering the USSR and everything connected with it.

2. In terms of the development of the American military-industrial complex. Latvia's purchase of weapons from the American military-industrial complex is a helpful expansion of the sales market for the American military-industrial complex and the enrichment of the US military-industrial complex.

3. In terms of logistics and operations. This is the expansion in Europe of logistical capabilities and the uniformity of American types of weapons for NATO countries under the leadership of the Pentagon from Washington.
At the same time, the planning of military operations in the event of a war between the United States and Russia and their implementation by the command from Washington / Pentagon will be implemented for the US Armed Forces much easier - more fully and efficiently.

[Tatyana]

I apologize for the typo I made.
I wrote "Latvia" - but I need "Lithuania".
Although, as in mathematics, the sum does not change from a change in the places of the "terms" - so in Tribaltia, no matter what country you take - they are all politically alike and their anti-Russian and Russophobic essence with the coming to power of Gobachev in the USSR is still not is changing!

[Terran ghost]

Well, let's read the article itself.

thus, the Lithuanian border service abandons the Kalashnikov assault rifles produced between 1957 and 1992

that is, we are talking about the fact that weapons will be removed from service, often worn out already in the completely material (and not moral) sense of the word. Plus - made under a patron that is not standard for the countries of the military-political NATO bloc.
What it will be replaced with. Well, formally, it is theoretically possible to replace it with variants based on the design of the same AK / AKM - from the Polish Beryl wz. 1996/2004 to the Israeli Galil ACE. But the G36 rifle produced by the Heckler & Koch company will most likely be replaced with the already built-in armament system of the Lithuanian Armed Forces. Just for ease of supply and maintenance.

Latvia's purchase of weapons from the American military-industrial complex is a helpful expansion of the sales market for the American military-industrial complex.

I will reveal a "terrible secret". American companies DO NOT make copies of the G36 rifle. And the Heckler-Koch branch in the USA doesn't make it either - they make these rifles in Germany.

This is the expansion in Europe of logistical capabilities and the monotony of American types of weapons.

See above.

[Tatyana]

Thank you for this clarification!
Regarding Lithuania and Germany, this is very interesting geopolitical information: there is something to think about.

[Terran ghost]

Well, actually, in fact, it all comes down to two points
1. The military-political NATO bloc has adopted a certain system of weapons standards for the ammunition used. To which, as far as possible, the bloc member states should switch.
2. In the same military-political NATO bloc, there is indeed a policy aimed at the gradual ousting of Soviet-made weapons in favor of weapons produced by NATO member-states. The reason is, if anything, not to depend on third-party suppliers of spare parts and "consumables". In practice, everything is not so rosy - there is simply "no money" - "Leopards-2", "Leclercs" and "Eurofighters" / "Mirages" / F-16 at market prices EXTREMELY "somewhat" more expensive than T-72x and MiG / Su -shek, which was supplied by the Soviet Union during the existence of the Warsaw Pact at subsidized prices.

[Tatyana]

Everything is the way you write.
But I also had in mind the subordinate spiritual criminal geopolitical kinship of bourgeois Nazi Lithuania with Nazi Germany back in the years of WWII.

Lithuania. Holocaust of the Jews.
Lithuanians for a small bribe and ration to the needs of Germany and the "collective West" they are publicly beating Lithuanian Jews with shovels and sticks in front of the German military and Lithuanian policemen by hand.

[parkello]

yes they stir up .... AK is an excellent automatic machine, it only needs to be weighed in a new way and it does not need anything. replacing the AK with the G-36 is insanity .... if for a submachine gun, then wherever it goes, but the G-36 is the height of idtotism. By the way, we still consider it a model for the army. Despite the fact that the main weapon was fn fall and the G-3a3 AK we received from Germany and it was considered exemplary .. just the cartridge is not another 308 wine, but the M-43. and so this is the best weapon, it is kept in warehouses in case of war ... it was no accident that they seized all fnl and replaced them with German-made AKM ... the Balts are cunning ... they knock out money for rearmament, probably ... the Kalash will serve for a long time .. ..not for nothing that all the villages bordering on Bulgaria buy them and cartridges for it .... not because it is cheap .. just because it is not cheap at all my brother lives on the Turkish border ... and he has a Bulgarian AKM, he will not be happy with them in any way ... they would serve in our infantry if it were not for the difference in cartridges ... and so in the Greek army, the main ammunition is 308 Winchester ... only because of this, she is lying in warehouses and waiting in the wings .... but all of us buy them for themselves, and not M-166, M-4 and G-36 .... Greeks are good at arms understand they will not take bad things, especially for themselves .. when they can buy anything

The problem is that here, at VO, apart from bots, there are military professionals who evaluate weapons not in terms of kickbacks, etc. hence the difference of opinion.

[Luty]

I'm not talking about kickbacks. But about the budgets. But about the professionals ??? That there are a lot of those who firmly believe that we are the coolest. And this is already a dangerous arrogance.

I'm not talking about those professionals, but those who are present here, at VO, have actually seen something and are able to appreciate it.

In stores, and some of them, like the village. - walk all day
can you guys are jerks cars on 4 wheels

People! You will remember what you went with from the deli

He carried AVOSKA, and in it was a loaf of bread (brick),
a bag of kefir, a couple of cheese curds, 0,5 kg of boiled milk, 200 g
caramel sweets for children, well, a bottle of beer or
a quarter (to taste). EVERYTHING!!! So this hard worker
in THREE shifts at a huge factory he plowed and two
children raised and fed!

[sabakina]

And why would a Soviet hard worker on his six hundred square meters of Maybach? To frighten Colorado beetles? Or a milkmaid on a collective farm to enchant bulls?

[Kushka]

Well, yes, you can't ride it in the field.
And that Soviet hard worker, on his
6, and more often on 4 acres had rabbits,
chickens. And here MT was not replaceable here (and
965 constipation without seats is even better)
The whole summer - hay mowing in the countryside.
Along the way, "exploration was conducted" where the corn fields
and sunflower. In autumn, when the fields have already been processed
combines, instead of a stroller was attached
a huge wooden trough. Zhinka on the back
sitting and forward. Large row and beater stick.
A huge number of heads of corn was lying in the fields
and sunflower heads. A whole day off, and
In the evenings of workers, hundreds of "prospectors" mined grain.
The native MT plowed no less than the hard worker himself - he pulled
both uphill and in a rut - "well-being" depended on him
chicken coop and rabbit house in winter, and therefore the whole family.

But this time by! After work I went to the garden.
Recently I thinned a beet (we call it that), well, at the same time
and removed all the weeds. But the rains turned out to be overgrown again.
I missed the strawberries (trampled the aisles) and again
weeded (with his hands) a beet. I came home, and here is your post.

I still go with a string bag. And I also carry bread, milk and all that stuff in it. So what? Purely European posons have to buy a package every time at the checkout, otherwise it is unprotected?
Although I guess. Now, dear colleagues, they will rub in with a voluptuous aspiration about the mind-boggling high of post-industrialism, when purely European posons do not produce a shit not a physical product, but are supplemented exclusively by the provision of all kinds of services and therefore everyone drives as one see above.

[Kushka]

"Physical product" - sunflower (in winter it was 10 thousand UAH ton
today 30-50. A bottle of oil here (!) From 30 UAH became 60, take a look
Ukraine's place in the export of sunflower and sunflower oil (1 in the world).
Corn (for gasoline), see the place of Ukraine for the export of corn
(greetings from Nikita Sergeich). Further rapeseed, the same picture. Well, wheat-
when Shcherbitsky collected 50 million tons (one per capita) -all involved
The order of Lenin. Now which year they collect 90 million tons, of which more
60 - for export (look at the place of Ukraine) I emphasize - everything is checked -

Transition to a new type of automatic weapon for employees of the State Border Guard Service of Lithuania will take place after the settlement of legal and technical aspects.

Well, it will take another 10-15 years, and all this time you will have to wear nasty and disgusting Kalash, and even pray for them so that they do not start shooting in the opposite direction when the full-scale Russian invasion begins ...

Neither Lithuania nor Russia are, by and large, beggars (for example, Moldova is more likely than not) In Lithuania, the standard of living is higher than in Russia (not many times, however) - but there are no huge expenditures on nuclear weapons, wars abroad.

Why are they leaving

Someone went to the apartment to save up, someone just fumbled. Some will return, some will not. And this is normal - in London I met Australians, Germans, Swedes who came to work (here are rogue ) In Britain there are 600 thousand Italians alone (and by the way, about 100 thousand Swedes), for example. My wife from her native France went to Portugal, then to London. And nothing - France did not collapse. A familiar Lithuanian worked here for 6 years - he was building a house to replace the one chopped off by his wife during the divorce.
Attention, a question - after it, everyone either merges or turns to swearing If from Pskov or Tver it will be possible with a one-way ticket for 1000 of yours and an internal passport to leave for permanent residence in Hamburg or Stockholm (having found a job there online or through friends) - how many people will remain there?

What did you do with your cleaning?) I'm talking about the conditions in battle and you about cleaning)) how peas against a wall ... and m16a2 will withstand 1300 shots of continuous shooting? M16a2))) worse shit is also necessary to look))

[Terran ghost]

I mean the conditions in battle

Watch the video. Everything is there specially and clearly for you.

.a m16a2 will withstand 1300 rounds of continuous fire?

First, where in combat conditions you will take 1300 rounds of "continuous fire" rounds.
Secondly. The AK74M barrel burst after 587 shots, the AK12 barrel burst after 680 shots. In the case of the M4A1 assault rifle, the barrel burst after about 590 rounds of continuous fire.
But this is all lyrics. Physics is such that double ammunition according to the standards of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation - 240 rounds in stores, plus 30 in the magazine that is inserted into the machine. Total - 270 rounds. If a fighter carries more cartridges (which is not a fact, there is not enough "free space for maneuver" in terms of the weight of equipment wearable) - then they are in boxes.

[-sa-]

Physics))) is such that a fighter can be on the defensive or, during protracted battles, boxes of ammunition can be supplied to him)) you did not know that?))) Then why are you trying to talk and be clever about wearable ammunition? handfuls to take and throw at the enemy)) or the physics is such that next to you there will be killed comrades who also have ammunition ... but this is all lyrics)) and yes, ak 7,62 .... I repeat for! not ... understanding)) not 5,45 which you named but 7,62! ... seven sixty-two))) seven! sixty-two))) seven! sixty-two))) can withstand more than a thousand shots. and even a modern AK 103 can withstand))

[Terran ghost]

I repeat for! especially not ... who understand)) not 5,45 which you named but 7,62!

Let me tell you the stunning news - the main automatic caliber used in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is 5,45x39 mm. Cartridge of the 1974 model.

that a fighter can be on the defensive or during protracted battles, ammunition boxes can be supplied to him

In which there are cartridges in boxes. Which then you have to slowly and sadly fill the stores by hand.
In addition, the reality is that the situation of "non-stop fire with pauses only for changing the magazine until the barrel melts" does not occur outside the test site. It is probably worth starting with the fact that the forend (made of a durable plastic) on the AK74M starts to burn much earlier than the barrel does "oh". But even earlier, from overheating, the weapon will begin to "spit", that is, shoot not at the target, but "somewhere there."

[-sa-]

The main thing is that the weapon will shoot ... it burns or spits (and spits still very painfully) somewhere there (possibly at the enemy who is already a few meters away from you) but will shoot. And I will also tell you stunning news))) I I did not talk about the main caliber of the Russian army ... I was talking about ak with a caliber of 7,62)) you think of my comments and fantasize for me))

[Evil 55]

And on the splash screen, the unit commander is trying to perform both the greeting and the go-ahead at the same time ... that's how they have it everywhere ... and eat a fish, and ride on a stick ..

[iouris]

In the photo, the commander, putting his right hand on his cap, continues to wave his left. What is this drill regulations?

[sabakina]

iouris, by NATO standards, they have no combatant by definition. Only looting.

[faiver]

how did they guard the border with communist weapons for thirty years?

[Sands Careers General]

Lithuanian border service refuses Kalashnikov assault rifles

They will fight with stones and sticks, obscene mats and a dust broom))

[tarakan]

Lithuanian warriors have had hecklers for a long time

[isv000]

After 2014, Lithuania delivered some of these decommissioned weapons to Ukraine.

Who would doubt that! And now the forelocks stood up, smelled a freebie ...

[Olddetractor]

That's right, after all, you can kill from the AK ... What servants went fashionable, and strives to put on a new thing

[Black cowl]

To hand over all the assault rifles for storage in the Russian Federation, send our armed men on a business trip so that they can take everything according to the inventory, in good condition.

[Usher]

I didn't understand, they have G36 and she says

The equipment of our employees must be replaced with modern ones that meet the highest standards. Because today, in today's conditions, it is a pity that the State Border Service employees still have such weapons.

... What does AK have to do with it?

[tolmachiev51]

The process of "decommunization" continues !!! - what if the "Kalash" starts to fire on their own !?

And we were just worried, but even if they were on duty with slingshots, we didn't care.
