Zimbabwe Rhodesia thread

bring back a FAL

>>33194648
Not allowed to import into the US. Banned from import by name.

I'm very surprised you actually managed to contact any who were willing to speak to you.

They are not the most open bunch in the world.

>>33194689
They are all in their late 50's and early 60's. They are eager to correct history and tell their story.

>>33194655
Nothing bars a non functioning rifle from import, or parts.

>>33194630

>>33194910
In due time. I have so much to post and more that will come soon. What for future posts with the olive drab patch. This will be stuff that's never been seen on k before and will put all other Rhodesia to shame.

>>33194873
Yes, it's really the only way to fly out to Zim. I'm not driving it.

>>33194937
Have a good time out there, I've got senpai in Harare and somehow they manage to survive so I'm sure you'll be fine.

Just don't sperg in front of the vets too much.

> OP goes to Zanzibar Land to interview some Rhodie war vets
> Roped into some Fallout sidequest shit
> Inadvertently becomes Field Marshal of the New Rhodesian Republic Army

>>33194962
I met with them two weeks ago. Most of them long ago left Zim and are now in SA. They are very open about their time and have an awesome collection of memoribilia to go with the stories.

>>33194983

>>33194630
what is it about rhodesia that causes fuck us. dutch fuck ups, english fuck ups, black fuck ups, 4chan fuck ups.

MORE LIKE AND FNFAIL AM I RIGHT BOYS?

>>33194630
>including securing a few thousand yard of real rhodie camo.

literally impossible

That is highly illegal in zimbabwe

>>33195238
It's illegal to wear in zim, not export. The pattern is still used in a handful of other southern Africa countries.

>>33195253
except the likelihood of thousands of yards of camo just laying around for you to come pick up is zero

>>33195280
You under estimate how little 2500 yards is and what can be bought in Zim and SA. It takes 2-3 yards to make a uniform.

>>33195366
and the likelihood of you finding an illegal camo in a massive spool like that of something that hasn't been made since the 70s

Oh and have fun shipping that back, fucknuts

this is not weapons related. and monumentally autistic.

dylan roof would like a new coat btw.

>>33195435

>>33195253

>>33195498
and the zimbabwean military and government burned most of the uniforms and remnants of the camouflage when they seized power

No one kept theirs and he's not going to find it in bu lk

Hey faglords there's a retarded camo containment thread, fucking go there

>>33195528
this thread isn't for discussing camouflag, it's about a guys trip to a militarily relevant country

>>33195541

DuckDuckGo ultimately is just as fucked and cucked as Google or anything else by the NSA. It's an American company. Superior StartPage is Dutch, therefore slave to the EU which, on paper, respects the human right of privacy and to not be tracked on the internet and, more importantly, does not give a fuck about you as an American. Their commitment to privacy holds a little more weight.

How come we can never have a fucking Rhodesia thread without "muh Dylan Roof" or "muh stormfag go back to /pol/"
It's fucking /k/, Rhodesia threads are a staple

>>33198438
Because that's all this Rhodesian bullshit is. Thinly veiled racism. Why else do you think the /pol/ eats this shit up?

>>33198511
Well people like myself for example had family in the conflict, that's why I like to post it and have an interest in it.
Not everyone is a Dylan Roof/Stormfag.

>>33198511
Rhodesia is about communists sympathizers.

>>33198560
That's great. Now go read a book on the subject instead of letting the stormfags and /pol/ fags tell you about it.

If it was about racism why wouldn't anyone talk about South Africa, a much more powerful and nakedly racist state. Why would anyone care about the tiny little state that could and that went through so much effort to prove how not-racist they are? Maybe Rhodesia really was a perfectly legitimate state that was a victim of the fading of the Cold War.

>neckbeard tries to bribe african

>arrests you anyway

maybe your rhodesian friends can show up and lose a fight with the airport security too

>>33206279
That's not how it works. The bribe is not obvious.

Border guard or police officer says you can't have X item. You say oh is this a new law. They will try and say it is. You say, perhaps you and your coworkers might enjoy this bottle if vodka on your next break. They will look at each others, say yes we're going on a break now and then waive you on. They have no incentive to take the bribe and arrest you. It's in their best interest to keep these exchanges friendly so they keep getting shit they can't afford. It's just part of doing business. It's not like they're going to ask for $2000. The always let you make the suggestion that have something to make problems go away.

>>33206279
>maybe your rhodesian friends can show up and lose a fight with the airport security too
They're mostly in their 60's and hardly any of them still live in the country. Why get in a firefight when you can end the issue with a $8 bottle of liquor or a few packs of cigarettes.

>>33206279
>American gets arrested in foreign shithole for thoughtcrime

As long as people know where he is so he can't disappear, he's fine.

This is cool as fuck OP, don't let the faggots telling you to go to /pol/ discourage you. Rhodesia is part of /k/ and always will be.

>>33206417
Every war or conflict is based on a political, religious, or economic difference. I'm not really concerned with those. I'm interested in a weapons, tactics, and gear used by the forces fighting in the conflict.

I don't bother with pol anymore than I make my own chocolate shitshake in my toilet.

Don't bother replying. These guys get rabid and outright deny reality everytime someone suggests getting actual real uniforms instead of Rhodie reproductions.

Not going to mention the African country by name by I have seen someone bribe customs in front of everyone else standing in line. African government workers give no fucks if money is involved.

Zim is a country full of gray. Many written laws are not enforced and many unwritten laws/customs are enforced. Is is a working gov't sure, it's a dictatorship that drove out all the white farmers and now can't grow food to feed its people. It's a country that printed money to buy more printing presses to print more money causing a currency collapse and hyperinflation. It went from having a clean modern infrastructure to failing road, and unreliable electrical grid and dirty water.

But, please, tell me more about a place you've never been to. I'd love to hear more about what people think goes on there so I can ignore my own experiences being on the ground there.

Completely irrelevant, you faggot. Having the right software on both sides of communication is what counts.

I am well past the point of giving liberals the benefit of the doubt. YOU are the reason I love Rhodesia and am a white supremecist.
