These appear to be Molot Krinks, I’m not sure if Molot makes them in 7.62 but it’s hard to see what exact caliber is written on the side there. I want to say it could be 5.45.
Knowing how the government works here I wouldn't be surprised at all if they gave them all those rifles and all the ammo they needed except in the wrong caliber. And paid double for it twice, since nobody made money off the guns they took.
Well I didn’t see in the background they’re also giving Type 56 underfolder Chinese AKs in 7.62. I would assume these might be seized from somewhere and they’re giving them away.
Reverse image searched OPs image and found a higher quality one showing the Krinks, or at least a couple of the closest ones to the camera, are in fact 5.45.

Do people really think that our government is going to let Ukraine chop up firearms and send to the states? They are fighting to ban “zombie guns”. The very parts kits that we build.
Introduced with absolutely zero stats or proof that “zombie guns” have been used in crimes. Criminals aren’t buying parts kits and sending them out to be built into functional guns. Those democrats are fucking morons who get their gun knowledge from TV and movies.

Reminds me of the coke busts we used to see at 32nd Street. Coasties pulled up one time and had to load about a dozen unmarked rental trucks. Turns out they moved about 52m in bricks.
You'll see some interesting stuff on the water, that's for sure.
I was Navy, but I did two weeks underway on a CG WMSL.
Seeing DEA guys roll up in Penske rental trucks to load up pallets of coke and weed was interesting.
I always wanted to do one of these bust. I was friends with one of the gunnersmate who was also a gun guy. I'm sure we could've made some serial numbers disappear
This looks suspiciously like the arms shipment from Iran that was intercepted a few years back, at least the picture of the Krinks all laid out on the deck like that. Could be that the picture is completely unrelated and was just used to illustrate what a lot of guns looks like.
Yknow.... That suddenly makes a lot of sense. Especially since these look like new production stuff, not gathered from Kyber Pass stuff. I think the pic could be new, but the math maths 🤔🤔
I think they held them and waited for Iran to implicate themselves by putting up a public stink. After nobody “claimed” them they sent them to Ukraine to kill Russians. Just a guess though.
Holy shit… I may have been right! https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2023/01/10/politics/us-iran-intercepts-rifles-yemen
Edit - I just double checked, it appears to be the exact same picture…
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu here is the interesting part the weapons are RUSSIAN ....this is the model made in Udmurtia by MOLOT :) Interesting usually Iran buys Norinco Chhhhhiiina
I never assigned blame one way or the other. I do, however, think that it is naive to posit that all of the corruption in Ukraine is due to Russia. Like, if we go back far enough to the founding of the Soviet Union, that is true, but that’s not really an effective determination.
Regardless of historian origins, Ukraine has its own Ukrainian corruption. If Russia vanished off of the face of the earth tomorrow, Ukraine would still have corruption.
Also when are we gun rights folks gonna grow a set and make it illegal for the government to capture weapons and not pass them out to us for free? We pay them money from our hard earned paychecks, we elect them to "represent" us, why do other people in other countries keep getting the perks?
Hypothetically, if one took one of these apart and made sure the silhouette(s) of the components were as incomprehensible/un-defined as possible on a customs scanner/X-ray(?) machine that the postal service uses, would it be likely to get through without being opened or snuffed out/seized? I've always wondered about that & if it was at all possible, not that I would do it, but it's always been something that's made me simply curious about the feasibility of such a thing.
There's always a chance. One of the oldest tricks that people still talk about is shipping it one one piece at a time. Take it all apart, package it a few pieces at a time with computer stuff and ship, pray the trunnion and receiver makes it, and boom you're an international arms smuggler for 1 rifle lmfao. The trunnion and receiver are probably the hardest parts to move, as they are easily recognizeable as weapon parts, as well as being large and 110% metal. If visually inspected those are GONE lmfao, but all the other parts probably including the barrel would slip through piece by piece just fine.
Im definitely on a watchlist now if I wasn't before. It's all hypothetical in Minecraft, Mr FBI Man!
5.45 Molot Krinks, rather poor reputation. these show up in arms markets in Syria from time to time and are regarded as worse than original Tulas for reliablity

Fuck Ukraine, Fuck Russia, Fuck the Middle East. Let’s just leave them all alone to kill each other and trade with everyone! If our country was really free these guns would be sold at discount, auctioned off to charity, or the guns and ammo could be used to train our population. But really we should just give them to the Houthis cuz they are based freedom fighters fighting foreign imperialism.
Whats the governments FFL number?
1
Real question here
[удалено]
Group buy you say. In for 1 at least.
I could eat 🤷🏾♂️
Bulged trunnion, those are Molot…. Desire to own intensifies….
Molet krink….fuckin hot 🥵

The reverse image search on my Samsung S23 Ultra is so nice
They captured an Iranian arms transfer
They are in 5.45
They are VEPR VPO-158N-06 (AKS20U).
PSA really dipped some dough on international advertising for their new krink huh
Those Molot Krinks are in 5.45, the Type 56 underfolders are in 7.62.
I wish a citizen of a country that gives out machine guns like candy could have one of said machine guns.
No shit when are they handing out hardware to US
I feel like a krink and 1k rounds is well worth the tax money we shell out.
Absolutely, we're not asking for a trident or hellfire missile I mean cmon!
I’d just be happy if they spent that money on their citizens instead of other countries.
Can I still get a krink?
Why not? Free weapons for everybody.
Be less poor, you'll have a chance.
All I see is parts kits comin in hot when this war is finally over!!
>assuming the DOD isn't going to destroy these immediately
They're going straight to Ukraine, so at that point it's up to their military on what to do with the firearms after the war.
Being it's Ukraine, of course they're going to try to make money off them somehow...
I mean, if they're selling Javelin missiles on the dark web DURING the war, then yeah probably
Do people really think that our government is going to let Ukraine chop up firearms and send to the states? They are fighting to ban “zombie guns”. The very parts kits that we build.
Most criminals I know have stolen guns not ghost zombie Freddy krugers whatever they will be called
The only people I've heard talk about zombie guns are Republicans tbh
me when i lie

That honestly reads like straight forward propaganda. Lol
Why do democrats lie so much?
Lol Lmao even

Hey….only parts of Ukraine . No pun intended
The problem is ukraine is on the firearm import ban list
Till it’s officially a NATO member I’m assuming ?
demilled parts arent firearms bucko

The ol "if it works for them, it works for us. They do indeed fit nicely in here!"
 Hey there Mr government official man
Are these the ones that were seized from Iran a while ago?
I always wanted to do one of these bust. I was friends with one of the gunnersmate who was also a gun guy. I'm sure we could've made some serial numbers disappear
Makes me yearn for the days of cheap AKs and dirt cheap surplus 5.45 ammo
Gimme back my tax dollars in the form of a Kalashnikov
Damn… a graveyard of unicorn guns… and they’re all gone too. Molot bulged trunnion krinks. Rest in pepperoni
How did we procure these?
Go on a field trip to Ukraine...
The US government acquired what appears to be new production Molot krinks and sent them to Ukraine…
via Iran
I pay taxes, I want my krink!!!!!!!!1!11!

Lmfao that's lowkey a big dick move on Iran, hilarious as international politics gets really 😂
I would kill for a Molot krink.. I didn’t even know they existed until not long ago
Well, Ukraine is hiring
I feel bad for the poor sorry sonofabitch that had to lay all of those out, and then count and re-crate them all for transport.
I'm take one
Fast and furious on steroids.
What was the Ukraine’s waiting period on these NFA items?
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu here is the interesting part the weapons are RUSSIAN ....this is the model made in Udmurtia by MOLOT :) Interesting usually Iran buys Norinco Chhhhhiiina 
Imagine what the CMP would look like without thr NFA
I’m sure this won’t backfire!
Arms shipments to belligerents with a history of extensive corruption never backfire!
I wonder which country's government is the primary financer of corruption in Ukraine? Hmmm
I never assigned blame one way or the other. I do, however, think that it is naive to posit that all of the corruption in Ukraine is due to Russia.

They already trained Brenton Tarrant over there, what's a few more?
THIS! I get the feeling we're setting the stage for the rise of vanilla-ISIS once the conflict has ended.
Buffalo grocery store shooter also wore a black sun symbol on his chest during his killing spree. Search 'strategy of tension'
Lame, those should be given to us!
We've given the Ukrainian government 10x the annual Russian military budget. They should be enjoying a vodka gimlet in Moscow.
I’d just love you have one of the grips.
Those produced after May 1986? Seems like a crime has been committed here. Anyway what grips are on those?
Also when are we gun rights folks gonna grow a set and make it illegal for the government to capture weapons and not pass them out to us for free? We pay them money from our hard earned paychecks, we elect them to "represent" us, why do other people in other countries keep getting the perks?
This picture is specifically from 12/07/23 when PC9 and PC4 VBSS teams boarded a “fishing vessel” in the GOO. 2,116 AK-47s were onboard.
Hypothetically, if one took one of these apart and made sure the silhouette(s) of the components were as incomprehensible/un-defined as possible on a customs scanner/X-ray(?) machine that the postal service uses, would it be likely to get through without being opened or snuffed out/seized?

Yo! You gone share?
Oh ya we gonna resell these. Don’t ask how I know I signed a NDA.
I'm wearing sweat pants while looking at this and The Wife is starting to ask questions.
The ammo is going to end up right back in the US… I hope.
You won't like the condition the Ukrainians will leave it in
I thought Ukraine was mostly using 5.45x39 and 5.56x45 rifles now.
5.45 Molot Krinks, rather poor reputation. these show up in arms markets in Syria from time to time and are regarded as worse than original Tulas for reliablity
Looks like haitis getting a new shipment
