Seems like the Taliban is probably a bit more effective at the whole COIN thing than the American military. Taliban claims to have killed an ISKP governor and captured three of his associates alive along with their weapons.

The Talichads keep the best stuff for themselves, basically whatever Joe Biden let behind.

Interesting, in the old days they would have people gunsmithing AK-47 in the open, all of the vendors seem to only be selling shotguns. Though lets be real, these guys probably have or know of people who have the good stuff and they're not going to sell it to some rando with a cellphone. Black market trades are built on trust.

I've heard their consumer sold AK-47s are smoothbore because rifling is hard to do (only the Taliban would get rifled barrels for their AKs). Maybe word got out on black markets so they swiched to shotguns so the lack of rifling wouldn't be a problem.

You would think that, but these dudes tend to have ancient well used metal fabbing equipment that looks like it came from 1930s-1940s America, with a lot of obvious repair work done to the machine. In rural areas and undeveloped countries there is a lot of community sharing of equipment and its almost certain that the entire gun market would both pay to use the machine and help with its maintenance.

Apparently the guy in question visited gun factories in Pakistan, where its a mix between some guys going modern and other folks going super duper old school.
