I will also post one, but only one because I am not looking to cause any trouble with the mods or anything.

If you really want to see how the Chechnyans operate, you can go to

and skim through the archives, or just type in chechnya or chechen in the search engine. There's plenty of stuff there.

But I gotta warn you, just about everything on that site is extremely graphic, because war and terrorism,and beheadings (yes I said beheadings) are all the main topics of discussion on the site. So you may want to be careful on what you click on

Anyway, back to the subject at hand. The Chechnyans are able to obtain APCs and IFVs etc. I don't think that they have a need for those bolt actions or any of those other guns, because why use them when you can just use the brand new AK-74 you just picked up off of a dead ruskie?

Why attack a tank from head on? What and end up getting killed? Na, the Chechnyans are smarter than that. They'll take some old surplus 152mm artillery shells, and wire them up with some blasting caps and or a timer/detonator and just bury them in the center of the road. Then they'll wait for you to drive by on your tank patrol, and then BOOOM!!!!!! Four of those shells will make the best anti-tank mine you've ever seen. Sure, maybe won't kill everyone in the tank, but then they'll just come in for the kill with RPG's, RPK's to get the stragglers. Or they'll wait for some help to arrive, like a medic APC or something to come and take away the wounded and or secure the area, and that's when the second 152mm I.E.D goes off and the RPG's start coming in, and then everyone gets sucked into the ambush.

The Russian tank crews and or IFV operators are soon to learn that they are not safe even inside thier own armor.
