SR Podcast Vol.2: Gun Sales in Darra Versus Iraq, Yemeni oddities

Silah Report’s second podcast is now online at SoundCloud, free feel to listen in! While you do, follow along in this post for all the photographs that we shared relating to the conversation on our Discord server.

Adham started the podcast off with some interesting SVU rifles that were for sale on the gun markets in Sanna. Ameer suggested that there might be a connection between the Syrian SAA and the Houthis as a way of entry.

Adham brought up some Turkish blank firing pieces that are converted to fire live rounds, some in 9x18mm and others in 9x19mm.

Then there was this “Glock-Hulk” that was also brought up.

Abdullah proceeded to show examples of polymer manufacture in Darra with raw materials coming from Lahore.

Some of the polymer magazines are marked with model numbers at the base of the magazine.

Ameer and Abdullah go back and forth discussing different magazine prices within Pakistan and Iraq. Some of the keynotes here are that previously in Iraq magazines came with new rifles but currently they don’t due to supply issues. Abdullah went at great length to describe the magazine quality and issues that are being worked on in Darra.
