      Would real ceremonial muskets look that bare, chipped, and worn?

      I mean if Russia is still fielding the Mosin in Ukraine I see no reason Myanmar wouldn’t field a bolt action.

      Well, these are rebels in Myanmar. They use what they can get. The array of weapons they use is wild. I imagine the poor sods stuck with muskets are probably left guarding less-important areas, where something is better than nothing if shit goes down.

    Well now that’s just embarrassing. They could just hit Cabelas and grab a Mossberg bolt action rifle for like $300.

      Someone buy these poor boys a plane ticket.

      Unironically they could probably trade in those muskets 1-1 for better guns here in the US, I’m sure collectors would love to pay a fair price even for the scuffed ones.
