Would westerners be as welcome if wanting to emigrate to Russia in these silly times? Absolutely sick to death of Britain following American dictatorship of how bad Russia is. I'd honestly prefer Russia to the west🙏
I don't know if you "can," but every Russian "should" own one. 😅 As an American, I believe self-defense is a God-given right and firearms allow for parity between people. I am glad you can get them but wish it was a more liberal process. Thanks SR!
Yeah they surely try to make it hard for us here. All I am allowed to own is double barrel coach gun currently. It is a good gun don't get me wrong, but I kinda hate that hate to wait 2 years to get myself Saiga 12 or Drilling with smooth barrels (yeah, just for fun. I like em)
You do realize when you say you have the right to self defence and want to buy guns at Walmart that the people you’re trying to defend against can also buy them at Walmart and makes it much likelier that you will need to defend yourself against them. When you have balls and don’t live in America you don’t feel the need to walk around armed as if you live in a war zone. You guys should try it I’m sure Russia has a lot less shootings in schools, playground, malls, parades, gas stations and countless other places because of their gun laws and they actually have rise. up against their government at least twice to take it down. Thinking that giving everyone a gun allows them to defend themselves is like thinking if everyone has a pool no one will drown. Easy guns, lots of murders. I think that’s been more than proven in the US case. No modern country in the rest of the world has the amounts of shootings the richest country in the world with all its self-defence rights has. Invest in providing for the people and watch how little self defence you’ll need instead of having little forts of overly wealthy people surrounded by a war zone. Just an idea you’ve made it this far as a nation maybe it can go on for another 250 years. Violence begets violence. Don’t get me wrong I don’t understand why you feel as you do, I would feel the same in America. Every time I visit I’m waiting to be shot or robbed but that’s the problem.
I had an elderly Uncle bought his first 22 rifle when he was 10 years old from the Sears mail order catalog for $3.00. That was in 1930. I have it, and it shoots very well.
I have my grandfather's Winchester model 1902, and I'll be passing it to my son when I leave this world. Hopefully he sees the value of a firearm owned by 4 generations, even though it's a single shot 22 that honestly looks kind of toy-ish.
I Really Wish Russia & America would be Allies .... These Santions are Horrible, i miss getting Saiga & Vepr rifles, cheap steel cased ammo , Bakelite, Plum & slab side mags & Russian uniforms
As an American I thought I had to jump through a lot of hoops to own my suppressors and short barrel rifles...but the process was not nearly as involved as this. Thank you for the interesting insight into Russian gun ownership.
yea every country's different , in NZ we have much stricter Gun Laws than the USA but a suppressor you dont even need a licence to buy , its almost considered a necessary piece of equipment. No ones ever been killed with a suppressor.
@@huntarama9375 The only crime/murder committed with a lawfully possessed full auto was by a law enforcement person. There are under 200k full auto transferables for civilian possession. The current estimate of number of guns in the US is estimated over 800,000,000. If the law abiding average gun owner was the problem the news says, the news wouldn't be able to produce such stories. The registered hunters of the us is in excess of 15 million.
You have to hear how other countries (including California?) handle gun ownership to fully appreciate the USA's freedoms. Indiana is constitutional carry now, but I originally had to reapply for a permit every 5 years, then they had a lifetime prrmit, before constitutional carry.
In Canada, things are not looking great for firearms owners and they are basically trying to revisit your country past with some new virtuous twist. A dark cloud hangs over our country but at least seeing a video from survival is a good sign that not all is censored and banned here. Great video, I always wondered what rules were on firearms over there. cheers
The Dark Cloud over Canada is Justin Trudeau. It would seem that getting that Control Freak and any like minded Control Freaks out of any Law making, Edict issuing, or any position of authority, not even Dog Catcher, is needed there. By the way my Family and I lived in Goose Bay Labrador Canada in 1965 -1966; beautiful Country.
After living in Russia and the USA, America is much better. I will have to say that it depends on where you live in the USA to get a firearm. I used to live in NYC for a long time and it is much harder to get it there than in the South. I prefer freedom over gun control. Regardless of what you think about gun control, every bad guy with a gun is stopped by a good guy with a gun.
@@vladm5920 I'm glad. There is just a certain caliber of person I want in my country and clearly you ain't it. I'd like the transgenders and the illegals to go with you.
Hheh. my granfater in the eastern block told me his drivers license required a practical engine rebuild as there were no such things as tow services back then. Self reliance is still a thing in some places
Нет. В России очень простой процесс получения орудия. Система довольно либеральна. Все справки получишь за два дня. Плюс назначенный экзамен. Вообщем если не ленится и ничего не откладывать, через 3 недели у тебя будет разрешение на оружие.
@@Yaroslav-Xabarov Это все равно плохо и нарушает гражданские права. Оружие - это расходный материал, который следует приобретать в каждом оружейном магазине или непосредственно у другого человека. А для покупки в магазине достаточно иметь при себе только удостоверение личности о том, что вам исполнилось 18 лет, . боже мой!!!!!! к черту эти нынешние законы!!!!!
@@mnbvcxzlkjhgfdsapoiuytre-pm9wl С моей точки зрения мои гражданские права не нарушены. Наоборот Российское государство оберегает меня от психов и наркоманов с оружием. А вот например в Израиле практически не возможно приобрести охотничье оружие там очень жесткие законы по обороту гражданского оружия. Я считаю что это перебор. Россия намного либеральнее в плане владения оружием, чем Израиль. Но не мне их судить. У каждого народа своя культура и свой исторический опыт.
It’s a thorough process to get arms there , very interesting., thanks for the clear presentation. I love my Molot AK in 762x54r . I’ll never get rid of that . Russia makes a great rifle .
Boating accidents are far too common. Not very believable. I just say I lost mine on the international space station. Yup, floating in space. Not my fault.
Superb video. Every creature has the ability for self defense. As humans use tools a gun is a useful tool for gathering food (large animals)as well as self defense against many possible threats.
In America it’s a right. Not a privilege. They are trying to change this every year it seems. Protecting your self and family is a god given right and it’s not just bad guys on the streets sometimes the government needs to be kept in check. 😊
Man, you guys have to jump through a lot of hoops to own a firearm. Makes me thankful for the limited restrictions we have in the States, which are still wayyy too numerous in my opinion.
@@Deathstroke-r7h all the more reason to carry and train up. Law enforcement has proven they're not gonna protect you, and the Supreme Court ruled they have no duty to. We're all on our own.
In the Russian Empire there was freedom of arms rights. Weapons were sold in stores, just like in America. Weapons could be used for self-defense. Then the communists came and took away this freedom. After the collapse of the USSR, almost nothing changed. Our ancestors under the tsar were freer than we were under “democracy”.
It was a remarkably interesting and enlightening video. I would like to know more about what the average Russian hunter and shooter uses in the field. What is the most common shotgun used for hunting birds and small game? What about bears and moose? I am not sure what kind of deer are in Russia but what is used for that type of game? I have looked at some Russian hunting forums and several hunters like semi auto firearms based on the AK type of action in larger calibers. The bureaucracy that one must go through is interesting. In all honesty, in the US that would not be tolerated too well. Most gun laws are at the state level. Since there are 50 states there are 50 sets of gun laws. It really depends on where you live or travel to. As an example, here in Wyoming I can lawfully shoot at varmints out of a vehicle on a two track dirt road. In my old home state of Massachusetts, if caught, I would face a hell of a fine and loss of my license to carry. Here in Wyoming you do not need a license to carry a firearm openly or concealed. But you do need a hunting license for small and big game as well as other types of game. Coyotes and prairie dogs( a type of large ground squirrel) one can shoot without any kind of license as they are classified as a pest.
The description of the bureaucracy part the lady gave somewhat differs from the process I personally went through in that her story looked more complicated, maybe this is reflective of her personal experience at certain medical/police offices. Also elements of the application process could be done online, this was not mentioned, I think.
Дружище, наливай побольше кофе, и снеками, я расскажу тебе всё как есть. Она не упомянула, что по новым правилам можно первые два года только ружья с одним или двумя стволами без сменного или подствольного места для картриджей. После двух лет стажа появляется возможность покупать всё виды ружей. Для охоты в основном используют ружья 12 калибра.. Мп- 18 одноствольных, мп 27 двухствольные, и мп 155 полуавтоматические.. Всего 5 едениц можно для охоты. Если владелец хочет больше, то получает "коллекционные" лицензии, с этими ружьями он не может охотится. После 5 лет стажа владения оружием можно покупать винтовки. И для охоты уже может владеть 10 экземплярами оружия. В любом сочетании количества ружей и винтовок. Пистолеты и револьверы простым гражданам нельзя. Ими могут только наградить за особые заслуги перед страной. Граждане вместо пистолета чаще всего покупают болтовое ружьё 20 калибра с коротким стволом и складным прикладом: тоз-106. У меня такое есть. Я увлечён идеями выживания) Если вы не утомились, то спрашивайте что вам интересно узнать ещё. Ах да охотничья лицензия на кабана стоит примерно 300$, на лося 700$.
Pretty awesome video Lars, Mrs survival Russia she's great to listen too, very funny with her story telling. Would be interesting if you told us about those two rifles there, those were not smooth bore now correct? I liked the shooting videos you use to do.
Have you been to canada sir? all the Russians want to know is if you are not insane and wont accidentally off someone. In Canada a restricted license owner is ran through a police database DAILY!
Disgusting regulations... I always imagined people in russia had the right to bear arms... This is really disgusting.. . Thanks for the information anyway ..
Those are some crazy hoops to jump through. Total opposite here in Tennessee. Just have to be 18 to buy rifles and shotguns, and 21 to buy pistols. No carry permit required. There is a mandatory federal background check done at time of sale, and if you do happen to have a carry permit, you can skip the background check wait period.
Mrs. Survival Russia is always interesting to listen to. But Russia sounds pretty restrictive for gun owners. I would think American democrats would love hearing this. But all they do is spread lies about Russia and its people.
This made me so much more thankful to be an American gun owner. Here, you have a default right to own a firearm, unless you prove otherwise (felony, or in rare cases mental illness). Whereas in the rest of the world, you have to gun through some pretty ridiculous hoops to earn the right.
Нужен железный шкаф с замком. По закону полицейский должен придти и проверить его наличие, но как правило со слов владельца оружия записывают размеры железного шкафа😂😅
They (Russia) needs a military exception, i.e.; if you join the militia and serve after regular military service for 2-3 years and stay on reserve for several years. All the BS hunting license is a deterrence that those that want to break up Russia have made part of law.
Cool to get a more in depth look at the overall process. My fiancé is Russia and when I was thinking of moving out the US to there gun ownership was my biggest question lol. I have like 70 here in the US. I can’t imagine having none at all lol .
in Croatia it is almost the same.. you can opt for sports shooting (which limit some weapon types and usage) or for hunting, selfdefense is almost impossible.. past background check from ministry of interior and all medicals including psycho-test, hunting test, animals and ballistics theory.. only different thing is we dont have this 5 year of smooth bore owning before you can by a rifled gun.. if its legal to posses as per gun law you can buy it on the first day of having a licence.. and of course immediately go report it to ministry of interior for registration, you have i think 8 days from purchase.. unlike some EU countries we cannot own suppressors/silencers..
Мы в России можем владеть только полуавтоматической версией гражданского варианта ак, он называется "Сайга" Или "Вепрь". Я недавно купил себе сайгу 5.45-39 в варианте с охотничьим прикладом, но заменил его по типу СВД. Я сказал себе: у меня мини СВД)))
That is interessting. So after all that procedures is it possible to get a mosinka and go to the range? As far as i understand after 5 years ? Is there also a regulation how to store your gun at home, maybe it needs special boxes or so for the gun and also the ammunition?
Yeah most gun crimes and firearms accidents actually happen within the family, and at home, good to have strong checks. Nobody wants to live like Americans have to.
Wow, I didn't realize it was that restrictive in Russia. I thought Russians were born with AKs 😅. Well, we appreciate not looking at you for this video 😂. I love Russian women.... ❤️ haha. Cheers from Alberta!
I had no idea about the ordeal these people must go through to be a legal firearms owner. Living here in East Tennessee, guns are just a part of life. I would guess that people living a thousand miles from Moscow are probably handling guns informally and away from severe scrutiny. Thanks for a great video and allowing outsiders know more about life in your country! God bless our world. 🙏🏼
The problem in Russia is not that you can't own a firearm - you CAN. There's more bureaucracy involved, and you can't own a handgun, but you do have access to very powerful semi-automatic rifles. Problem is - if you use one to defend your life and the lives of your loved ones, you go to prison. Period.
Holy crap what a bunch of hoops to jump thru. Even though our rights in the US are slowly being chipped away and infringed upon, it’s nothing like all this.
Self defense is a fundamental human right;.so if there are guns around or as there is gun around owning a gun should be almost unconditional but being legally responsible ..
I don't believe that the Government should decide who gets arms. Not ever. Ohh your weird so none for you???? Yeah not ok. If it is a problem the people should handle it.
The first time I ever purchased a firearm was in Mississippi at a gun show back in 91'. No class, no training, and no problem. I was in the military at the time but I wasn't asked for I.D. just cash 😅😂😅
@@seanomeirs8362 great for you. Perhaps what you "want and need" maybe is a wee bit different than what I "need" out where I live. Had a pack of coyotes attack our chickens last week. I used what I had to eliminate that problem which was a registered full auto MP5 with a beta mag which just happens to be dang near perfect for that situation. In "that" situation, it was EXACTLY what I needed. 10 seconds later and 4 dead coyotes, problem solved. Now. do YOU have access to that in good old cali......... Yep. Thought so. Now. Do you need that in your situation. Probably not. But I did. So again, good for you, but really, that means literally nothing. You get that. Just because you have what you want has absolutely no application out here. So really, I couldn't care less what you have.
@@fuzzybunny8095 I have several homes in the United States and Europe. Some of them have coyotes and other predatory animals. Do a better job of protecting your animals, and you won't need to kill coyotes. If you need a full auto to kill coyotes, that only pertains to you as a shooter.
That's how she sits at home with this shotgun, because try to shoot somewhere other than a shooting range and there will be a seizure of weapons, a fine and maybe a criminal article. There are few shooting galleries and it is very expensive. And so yes, weapons are allowed.
Here in Germany I find it better when I hear how things are going in Russia, I'm a sports shooter and I'm on the way to getting my guns, I'm a member of a shooting club. I took my exam at the end of last year, a practical and theoretical part, for a normal For thinking people, the exam isn't a problem. Now I just have to collect my shooting dates to get my first weapon. 12 months shooting 18 entries. Then you can buy a lot of things here. The basic quota is 2 pistols/revolvers, 3 semi-automatic long guns e.g. Ar15 etc. and ten repeating rifles lever action rifles. If you want more, you have to prove that you use it for competitions. What's bad is that we have to buy expensive safes.
@@RoverTheDog1 Magazine limit for pistols is 20 rounds. For semi-automatic rifles with centerfire ammunition 10. There is no magazine limit for rimfire cartridges. My father has a 20 round magazine for his Ruger 14 Mini and had to register it.
As a French we can own up to 15 handguns and semi auto rifle with a capacity of above 1+2 shots. ( Standard is up to 30 rounds magazines, if you want a higher capacity you need a special autorisation) There is no limitation in terms of repeating rifles and shotguns or semi auto 2+1 except if they are in some designated caliber which are .223R/5,56×45, 7,62x39, 5,45x39, 12,7x99 (.50BMG) and 14,5x114. Any weapon in this caliber entering the 15 guns limitation. Curiously the russian 12,7x108 is a free caliber...but I've never seen any rifle in this caliber sold in France ( Same for the 14,5×114)
Here in Austria gun laws are only Second (third really) only Czechs and Swiss. You can own any kind of Melee weapon as long as its not made to look like "Not a Weapon" and Knuckle Dusters are a No-no. As for firearms your Handguns are limited to 20 round Magazine capacity Max and for Self Loading Rifles 10 rounds. Main issue with guns here is the Price and the price of all the paperwork.
I watched a the firearms blog video with a Austrian firearms lawyer discussing Austrian firearms laws. It’s interesting that you can own as much bolt action hunting rifles as you want but it’s prohibited to own a pump action shotgun. Are lever action rifles and shotguns illegal? Speaking from an American citizen perspective.
Lever action rifles and break-barreled shotguns are freely available for sale. Semi-auto shotguns with a license. Pump rifles like the Remington 1715 are also freely available for sale. It makes no sense that pump guns are banned@@jessesimmons4503

We love you Russia. It’s too bad politics get in the way but I think we can both agree it’s the West that’s always been aggressive and started wars based on lies.
I wish was more liberal process, but way better than in gulag Australia. I supposed to be in Russia but sadly I am stuck in Gulag Australia perverse hell police state dictatorship.
I'm in USA Pennsylvania. 18 to buy rifle or shotgun. 21 for pistols. Permit to carry allows you to carry pistol concealed. Background check and no felony record, domestic crimes or fines. Buying a long arm or pistol requires Background check. Private sales of long arms is legal. Private sales of pistols must be transferred from person to person at a licensed dealer.
You forgot to mention that our government hands out felonies like candy while their government doesn't, therefore they will have more eligible people while we'll have a large defacto ineligible population.
@@charlesbrightman4237 well they also don't have a right to firearms ownership written into their constitution with the purpose of fighting th government in mind. It's a outdoorsman and sportsman's tool for them. They have higher levels of firearms ownership in rural areas than they do in the cities, where from what friends of mine say, many permits are denied.
@@grizzlyblackpowder1960I bet within the near future Russia will probably have something like the second ammendment in their country to ensure protection of their rights.
Wow, that‘s intense. In Switzerland, you put a photocopy of your ID (like a passport) and a duly filled 2-page form in an envelope, send it to the licensing department of your state police and that‘s it.
From a American point of view, this is very boring. I started hunting from the age of 4 and would order firearms from Sears and Roebuck when I was a boy. The first riffle I ordered, I was age 7. NO background check. Just sent them money and the gun was delivered to my door. I needed the riffle, to bring to school. For the shooting class/club. It is a little like playing football or basket ball. I wanted to get to know the firearm and practice with it, before I was of age to join the shooting club. In the U.S you can own machine guns, cannons, tanks, ETC. It is all, The Right to Bear Arms. Key word ( Arms ) Now please do not get me wrong, The Commies have been trying to Subvert the U.S. for a very long time now. They are trying to set rules and control Free Speech and Right to Bear Arms. But this is the oldest and highest law in the nation. So they spend billions and keep failing. I think this is one reason the USSR was a failure. Unlike Russia they can not declare themselves ruler for life and take theses rights away. This is the quickest way to get removed from power. If a government or despot/dictator knows who owns the firearms. They can take them away. Please remember this. It is a good way to get yourself removed/locked up. The one thing that would be very interesting. Every Russian having Free Speech and Right to Bear Arms. Now this would be truly impressive. Heck! Russia might even become a world power and the people might have wealth some day. No more E-bagging on RU-vid 🙂 Love the Russian people, Do not like the Russian government. At this rate, I wonder if any Russians will be left in a 100 years. All I can do is hope for the best and prey for freedom and human rights.
При таких ваших правителях, которые разрешают эмигрантам всё, подумайте, останетесь ли вы хозяевами в своей стране? Или на положении рабов целующихся ноги ёоё кому😂😅
In Russia I visited a gun store about 28 years ago. I learned about the psych-exams just to get a diver's license. In USA we have a system with a fast criminal background check and take your word on the form to apply for every firearms purchase. We also track perhaps 100% of mass shooters being on antipsychotics and antidepressants or weaning off them. In my opinion, when SSRIs are prescribed they should put the fact into a database that would disqualify the purchaser. But HIPPA laws need to be revised. We live in SW Colorado where most people in the countryside vote conservative but are outnumbered by city dwellers who vote like little boot licking nazis.
В прошлом году продлял лицензии на винтовку и дробовик, подал заявку на госуслугах, пришел в назначенный день и час, без всякой очереди, крайне удобно. Как охотник, никакую проверку на знание всего не проходил. В первое посещение потратил 10 минут, показал оружие, во второе 1 минуту на получение новых лицензий - так просто это не было еще никогда! Медицину, да закрутили серьезно, но очередей никаких не было нигде.
Russia’s firearm owning rules similer with Turkey. If you are a normal citizen you may only have hunting gun, you cant have a gun shoots 7.62 or 5.56 bullet. But as I know in USA you can have almost any gun, mindblowing 🤯
You can, but to own an automatic rifle you have to get an expensive license. I can wear a gun on my belt all day in New Mexico anywhere in the state. If you have no felony convictions, you can buy any gun you want. It's a right in our constitution so you can fight the tyrannical government.
Yes American society is compartmentlized with the individual on top .. an individual has rights protected by our constitutions.. we a free men when not bound by servitude( contract law ) it's complex now but I. 1776 it was straight forward and we'll understood the individual state citizen was recognized first by the state government and then naturalized.. but the states can almost do anything law wise because they have more reserved rights .. It's kinda complicated lol... but awesome.
First let me say that your command of the English language is beyond impressive. In addition to that, the topic was most interesting. You both did an excellent job of simply explaining the process. My best to both of you and the People of Russia.
There are two common misconception that people make. One is that women cook better than men. Most of the best chefs are men. Two is that men are better shots than women.
Do you mean competitive? If you do it’s a flawed argument. Not that competitiveness doesn’t matter to some extent. But what matters more than that is simply interest and passion. It makes sense that men tend to be better because there are just more men that have weapons aside from men being physically stronger there should not be any remarkable difference. Is my information also flat out false?@Ri-rz1tm6Luio4-xoxq
@Ri-rz1tm6Luio4-xoxq100% true most woment couldnt hit the side of a barn with a gun.. But i will say this.. The few enthusiastic women who shoot guns are better thsn most male shooters in general as its generaly a very small group of dedicated hobbiests vis 90% of male gun owners who just shoot for fun. If you see a women by her self at a range every daumy shes probably deep into shooting where as you get fudd guys who come and shoot bowling pins every wekk and never improve. Id say thats more of a noticeable difference. Very Few interested and so the few who are have a high degree of interest.
