I don't mean technically

Bruh

I meant morally

And you insulting the glorious AKM <:emoji_33:583987505112547329>

It breaks my heart thinking how the ethiops handled those. Italian soldiers had a strict code with firearm maintainance

@anthr0pos there

Happy

Held by an Italian

The colours say RSI

The helmet says resistence

Its modern just ignore it

@anthr0pos *Hmm it's almost like Italy dabbing on Ethiopia's attempts to modernize its military did shit*

@anthr0pos also wtf do you mean

Anotha one

@Mankn II what do you mean, what do I mean?

Thats a M38 model 1941

@Taddesse what do you mean?

@anthr0pos you say it said resistance

What do you mean by that

No I meant those helmets were rare shit in the RSI. That's a particular cut

Infantry stuff no though

Could be before the RSI

True

But the cammo doesnt look like it

Also true

Yhe RSI used that cammo alot

@anthr0pos ~~I'm talking about Italy whining about Ethiopian military modernization and then getting what it wants~~

If it was before the RSI it would have been likely paras @Mankn II and that uniform is just a no for any folgore of that era

@Taddesse "getting what it wants" who? Ethipians or Italians and what's what they wanted?

@anthr0pos The Italians

The 1941 version looks like an MP38

Every version does slightly

Mainly an Ethiopia whose military either wasn't modernized or was modernized but under Italian influence

I see

The the normal M38 looks superior in my opinion

And kinda is too

It was a great smg but not a cheap smg

I could probably find one of these somewhere in Ethiopia if I looked next time I went
