It wasn't a retailer as dictators don't like and armed population. It was one of the armories, gun shops that armed the revolution of Castro and Che.

There are some pretty nice shotguns. Before the revolution, who did they sell them to? Other than the Russian and Eastern Euro (I think I see a Brno there) shotguns which are post-revolution, of course.

Havana was a playground for the rich, the american mob, and celebrities. It was a modern thriving city - not so much anymore.

Yes, but it's not the easiest to connect to. You have to go to an area where there are hotspots, then stand in line to buy and ETECSA card for about $2/USD. Then you have an hour to use an internet that too slow to watch youtube and often goes up and down.

>>34980976
Yep

>>34980928
I got more and other stuff, like the museum of the revolution and the Casa de Che.

More pictures later if this thread stays alive until tonight. There will be more over the next week, including some military forts, the museum of the revolution, and the casa de Che.

Cool thread, thanks for posting, OP.

Do you know if all these guns are deactivated or something? They look like they're all just behind panes of regular glass.

hafie here again , someone on /k/ one time claimed he still had family he was in contract with in Cuba and when I asked him how easy it would be to get a gun there he said very easy if you have money. They'll sell a AK in heartbeat.

Cuba is one of the few communist dictatorships left. Internet is really limited in its reach.

Artist and writers almost always socialize and sympathize with communists and dictators.
