This is a good question. This is a damn good question.
Bonus points if you can assemble it yourself with parts that you buy in cash locally.

p.s. extra bonus points if you use a gun that is self made. -

well, that's excellent. now im all fuckin pumped up.
none of that would be a problem as long as I didn't have to make a quad copter drone from scratch.
handguns arent really an option in Canada anyways. u gotta sign your life away to own one legally.

2019-12-30 at 6:24 PM UTCDed moroz gonna be a day or two late but I get my yearly care package from Russia this year as usual.
This year its mostly duffel bags/ small stuff like entrenching tools (the old ones we had broke a while ago, we have been using small shovels for digging lately). Also another uniform, the old one has been worn to the last tread. Some "fanny packs" of sorts that enable you to carry a full EDC while dressed in only a tracksuit without a sturdy gun belt, etc. Some of the newer "Ratnik" gear to be tested before we ask for entire Ratnik kits in the future, etc.
xmas can suck my dick, its all about the new year. -

Your care package sounds lit, why are you getting it? Or even better who is sending it and for what reason? -

I am getting it because I am part of a group that organizes events in my american city. Once a year we organize an event here in honour of our grandparents who fought. There is more to it, but yeah. We get packages with various uniforms, kit, etc. Sometimes we organize auto shows (which are rare when compared to political marches, because Russian cars are lol, especially around here). But nevertheless we get all sorts of goodies. This was tied to the local Russian consulate general.
Funny story about this actually. Via university we made connections with the rather politicized Russian community which has led us all the way to personal acquaintance with the Russian consulate general. We were invited to hang out with their crew on consulate territory once. One of our guys was not 21 yet, but the consulate general had a bar in the back, and we were all getting drunk. They told him "do not worry my son, for you are over 18, and this is Russian territory, where at this age you can drink legally"; he got drunk with all of us regardless of age. Nothing significant but lulzy nonetheless.
The Russian consulate in my city has since closed due to political tensions, but we get all yearly support supplies as usual. Our big brother does not forget about us; our people went to war to protect fellow slavs before.
These supplies are sent by various NGOs as a sort of "charity". I will not name any particular entities, but few years ago I was given a whole box of these beautiful ribbons.
Attached are videos of our organized marches in my city over the last few years.

Originally posted by Misguided Russian p.s. here is image of ribbons that I got. I got a whole box of them for free from back at home, but my own personal supplies (I am not alone) have been reducing as these ribbons are handed out and then promptly proudly displayed.
All Ribbons, no medals. Shit.
I probably have more Communist memorabilia and I'm not even Russian. -

You mad? You jelly? Compensating? Why so quick to start shit? I have no interest in communist memorabilia unless its guns. Also these ribbons are not memorabilia. Why would an NGO send me medals along with purely decorative ribbons? -
