Damn ebay!
Every once in a while, I do several Ebay searches, to see if there’s a preponderance of things I want- unless there is a glut of something, you can’t get them cheap.
So today I find something that I’ve wanted for a long, long time. A Minox B
Usually, these things are a hundred and fifty bucks, or more. Today I bought one, without even really trying, for $22.
Dozens of these suckers have hit the market in the past couple of days. Now, I’m not a tinfoil hat kinda guy. but several things have happened in the past month that make me wonder.
1: You cannot buy an SPR22. I’ve been trying to buy one in 45-70 for over a year now. They ain’t coming in. Why? Baikal, the manufacturer, has been building AK-47’s by the trainload and shipping them to Syria.
2: You can barely find any 7.62 X 39 ammo. Of any kind. Why? Because apparently Wolf is shipping all THEY can manufacture to Syria.
3: All kinds of ‘spy” type cameras, so long the standard tool of the alphabet soup agencies, are being dumped on the market. At the same time, cameraphones with sattelite technology are becoming available to the general public.
Does it seem like something is about to go down?

I knew about the 7.62×39 shortage, but I had no idea it was because they were shipping to Syria.
Of course the counter to their up-arming is just to reduce the fucking bastards to paste from the air. 7.62X39 ain’t going to reach 20000 feet.
Hopefully, after we smear the fuckers, those AK’s will end up on the MilSurp market….
Something wicked this way comes
I had posted about Iranian gold movements earlier today here: Follow the Money. Ran into another interesting bit at Neanderpundit where Og writes: Damn ebay!Every once in a while, I do several Ebay searches, to see if there's a preponderance…
There is a way to drum up support for hitting Syria.
Attack Syria: Free up our ammo supply and get us Cheap AKs!
Sorry to hear about your cop troubles, Graumagus.
A minox B? Wow….
That was one of two things I ever heard my dad say he’d like to have. The other was a Lincoln. He could have afforded both even with 4 kids and a mortgage but characteristically he denied himself those things and much else.
Ahhh $75 is a minor annoyance more than actual trouble. I’m not letting it raise my blood pressure anymore.
Just Damn! I used one of those years ago. The quintessential Spy Camera – perfect for Sub Rosa Photography in high school and a terror in the girls’ locker room…
