No one is filing off serial numbers from weapons that would take an eternity.
It really only takes but a minute *shrugs
Thats a lie, I am a machinist and a welder, I have a lot of experience in using files. I would love for you to demonstrate how easy it is to use a file to remove a stamped or engraved feature off of another metal surface?
You don't need to be a machinist to know how to file off a serial number.
I am really doubting you are being on the up and up now.
Again, I will say it. Filing off a stamped number is difficult. Filling of an engraved one isn't. It isn't rocket science and people do it a lot more often than you think.
Hell, using a metal file is something I learned to do in high school machine class. It doesn't take skill ormuch know-how to file down a surface.
It takes a long time to file off .015" by hand, it takes even longer to take a part a broken weapon to file off anything and then more time to put them back together. If they did take the retarded amount of time to do such a thing then the filmography would be more then happy to show off the shiny spots on the destroyed weapon were their used to be a number, further even then a bit of acid would probably show that number clear as day.
Hand filing off any kind of feature like that is a very laborious task.

So between this and the foreign fighters being sent to the northern border before getting shot, kind of tells everyone that Zelensky was asking for bodies to just kill. Looks like that President of Ukraine and all those world leaders that support him are War Criminals.
And IF actual evidence is found prosecute them, but until verifiable evidence is found its still just propaganda.
There is always evidence, just a matter of it being found.

I am addressing the bs claim that Ukrainians murdered foreign volunteers
As I said it is an attempt by Russian to drive a wedge between Ukraine and the US in hopes the US will abandon Ukraine

No, it is not easy to find a knockoff Berrit 50 cal where the real ones cost 8 to 12K.
The only people buying them would be doing so as a display. IAnyone in the market for a real M82A1 or A2 berritt 50 cal isn't going to fall for a knockoff.

Im a machinist as well man. Its a pretty quick job with an 90 degree die grinder.
I dont think the term "filing" is appropriate or accurate. However, there are different grits of files if one wanted to actually do it.

People making fake propaganda videos wouldn’t care.

If there are Canadian, US/British ex special forces or ex regular forces serving in Ukraine as Volunteers on the front lines its very unlike you will have the MSM admit it publicly unless they are captured.
