I see it as the most well-armed city, not the most dangerous. There's no opposing militias fighting constantly, like in Somalia.
[QUOTE=carcarcargo;19905191][QUOTE=GoldenGnome;19904038]These people aren't terrorists.
They just have an appreciation for self defense.[/QUOTE]
I bet most of them are terrorists to be honest.[/QUOTE]
God damnit I weren't supposed to post about them being terrorists, I'm not some stupid racist fag, I'm tiread and I expressed myself wrong.
I edited it. No one's terrorists, and even if they are, then it's still fucking awesome as long as it's these guys doing it and not those alquaeda fags. Blowing shit up is awesome.
fucking incredible.
time to clean up this city

Shopping for Allah's sacred crusade? Check out our brand new AK's, at an excellent discount when you buy bulk. AK's for the entire family, or something good for stocking stuffing.
It's not like they're shooting eachother.
The biggest threat would probably be the bullets raining from the sky.
Buying a gun from the Khyber Pass with the intention of shooting it is the equivalent of buying a live hand grenade and taping it to your hand, pointing it at your target and pulling the pin.
Whoever rated me dumb has never seen a Khyber Pass rifle.
This is the perseverance of mankind's armament history.

I wouldn't trust any of those guns, probably end up blowing up in your face.
I saw this somewhere on FP awhile ago, but it's still cool.
Where the hell did they get that lewis gun.
They can't be THAT common.

They made hundreds of thousands of them, and after WW2 most of them went to the Middle East and Africa. Khyber Pass also made copies of them, as they did with every other British firearm.

I really badly want to know what their crime rate is...
seems like a nice place.

Yeah, that'd be really interesting to know.
Some of those weapons look like they'd go for thousands on the collector market.
I don't see how this is remotely the most dangerous. I would assume that the gun death per population is dramatically lower then U.S even. Stupid title for a thread OP!

Awesome videos on that site.
I would totally go there
if it didn't mean being killed and jazz

Until you realize they're very low-quality copies made out of melted down scrap metal.
I wish the video was made by someone who knew what they were talking about.
"Where do the bullets go in?"
He also picks up a shotgun and calls it an "Italian rifle"
Also why does he keep saying this is proof the war in Afghanistan isn't over?
They were making guns decades before we invaded, and they'll still be making them when we leave, this has nothing to do with the US invasion.
Also, Grozny has something to say about this article.

I shit myself at how many times people got muzzle swept.
I wouldn't exactly be willing to trust my life to a fine Soviet-bloc safety mechanism if I could help it. Better yet if it was any of the guns from the town...
[QUOTE=K2cougar;19907494]I'm willing to bet that less than a fourth of all homicides there even get reported. and you risk getting abducted/raped/stepping on a land mine, not to mention the harsh conditions of the environment.
its a shitty place to be in, [I]especially[/I] when you dont even speak their language. i'd pick detroit any day.[/QUOTE]
Making your own ammunition out of whatever unstable explosives you can find also isn't exactly the safest occupation.
Yeah, Detroit is pretty much the same thing, I live 20 minutes away from the heart of the city.
I remember reading a bit about this in a firearms identification book. On Lee-Enfield rifles, it had a page or two on Khyber Pass Copies, including a gigantic bold heading saying that they are extremely unsafe with full-power ammo, and relatively unsafe with the low-power locally-made ammo. It recommended destroying any that you find, since they are as likely to kill you as whoever you're pointing it at, not to mention the inaccuracy and reliability issues.
That was probably a bit exaggerated, but I'd think twice before buying a gun from there.

Not too badly exaggerated, some Khyber Pass copies are just as good as factory guns, but that's incredibly rare, most will likely kill you if you shoot them with standard loads.
I'd never destroy one though, that's a real irresponsible thing to say/do, the older Khyber Pass copies are rather collectible.

Well it is an illegal gun market so everyone there is breaking the law.
but in retrospect crime such as theft and murder should be low considering EVERYONE has a gun.
