This is all it took to defeat NATO for the Afghanis.

>old Chinese AKs
>ww1 era Lee-Enfields
>IEDs made from soda bottles and shit you can find at a hardware store

How these are manufactured:
>Kids are putting Drano, tin foil, and a little water in soda bottles and capping it up, then leaving it on lawns. When you go to pick up the trash, and the bottle is shaken just a little, in about 30 seconds or less it builds up a gas and explodes with enough force to remove some of your extremities. The liquid that comes out is boiling hot as well.

>Don't pick up any plastic bottles that may be lying in your yard or in the gutter, etc.

https://www.cityofkokomo.org/departments/police_department/warning_soda_bottle_bombs.php

>Homemade chemical bombs (HCBs), also known as acid bombs, bottle bombs, and MacGyver bombs, are explosive devices that can be made easily from volatile household chemicals (e.g., toilet bowl, drain, and driveway cleaners) purchased at a local hardware or grocery store. When these and other ingredients are combined and shaken in a capped container, the internal gas pressure generated from the chemical reaction causes the container to expand and explode. The subsequent explosion can cause injuries or death to persons in the immediate vicinity of the detonation.

>NaOH and aluminium
doesn't sound as bad as
>HCl and zinc
both should explode due to buildup of H2 gas. hot HCl is almost surely worse than hot NaOH. however:
>KOH and aluminium
potassium lye is quite aggressive. neither of these are deadly. if you want be really dangerous you should do
>HCl and TCCA
this will build up Cl2 gas which, apart from exploding, will be in deadly concentrations within around a meter of the blast radius, depending on the mass of ingredients. in a confined space this will be far worse

 No.2798

Ingredients:
-A moderately thick glass bottle that will shatter on impact but won't break in your hands
-A rag made of flammable fabric cut into strips
-Some sort of fuel with a syrup-y consistency if you want it to stick well (a good formula is dissolving styrofoam in acetone and mixing the resulting solution with an equal amount of gasoline; the Finns that coined the term Molotov cocktail thickened their gasoline with roofing tar)
1. Fill the bottle with the fuel in an open air or ventilated space
2. Tape a strip of rag around the neck to protect your hands from the heat
3. Shortly before you plan on throwing it, dip one half of a long rag strip into the fuel while the stuffing the other half in the neck of the bottle, plugging it while leaving about 5 cm hanging out
4. Light the rag and throw

I lost the .pdf but there's a US intelligence document from directly after WW2 outright stating the Soviets very well have the capability to overrun Europe to the Atlantic to little or no resistance, but they speculate they're avoiding doing so due to concerns about their capability to hold said territory in the long term.

 No.2722

Remember that most of the anti-axis resistance in Europe at the time were loyal communists. Actually after WW2 the French resistance kept asking the Soviets for permission to revolt. But the Soviets by that point had pretty much abandoned world revolution and were doing what they could to try and maintain peace with the capitalist world.

 No.2723

>>2722
Pretty much this
While, yes, the Soviets very well could have won the Cold War by heating it up early, you have to remember these are pretty much pipe dreams and alt-history scenarios. Stalin's main concerns at the time were to cuck to the Allies at every turn, not world communism. Even in Eastern Europe, what would later become the Warsaw Pact was more of a proxy zone to secure every potential route into the USSR in case of an invasion.
The way the USSR could have won the Cold War would have been to avoid it entirely along with WW2, if things had gone a little bit different in Warsaw, 1920 we'd be living in a completely different timeline.

 No.2743

>prepare for world war III by 1950

How much could the Soviets do in that time while recovering from the 2nd world war tho?

The question is to win the Cold War so maybe they don't have to sweep all of mainland Europe but just enough to where the Capitalist powers would be weakened and eventually fall, idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

> they get nuked to shit.
In 1950 the USA barely had a couple A-bombs, and the only plane capable of carrying them were special B-29s that had a modified bomb bay. That is in part the reason for initial nuclear attack plans of the USA to be canceled. That's not to mention that the B-29s were fodder for the MiG-15, and the MiG-15 v F-86 air combat had the MiG coming out on top 3/4s of the time. The only problem in the 4chan post is that the USSR itself was not ready to fight a sustained, multi-front war like that, and definitely not China, or is everyone forgetting the impact of WW2 on those 2 countries.

The snipe in the 4chan post about popular front vs united front is ignorant, as the reason popular front got utilized is because most revolutionary states not in the WARSAW Pact were Asian & Latino countries that had markedly lower development and differing culture. The USSR supported grass roots movements across the globe, NATO countriess like the USA, UK & France crushed many like Guatemala, Malaysia, Pakistan and attempted the same in Korea, Vietnam & Cuba.

> Stalin's main concerns at the time were to cuck to the Allies
His main concerns were to rebuild the country and get it back on its feet, something that a multi-front war was incompatible with. Not to mention that the people were tired of war.

Resistive wires for the primers (you could get these from a hair dryer or electric heater), matchhead powder for the propellant (since black powder is too tedious to make the old fashioned way)(you can just buy those bigger boxes that have a hundred or so in them), some shot (you can make this out of some Hershey's kiss wrappers by balling them up and tapping them with a hammer until they are completely solid and hardened, before polishing them with sandpaper), a ramrod, stainless steel pipes + endcaps, a lipo battery, a dual light on/off switch for the triggers, and some wires to hook it all up (ofc).
