V22: V22: Hydro-Dipping Small Arms in Idlib, One Craftsman's Experience

Silah Report - A podcast by Silah Report

Categories:

On the 22nd episode of Silah Report Podcast, we had a craftsman from Idlib as our guest, who has a long history fighting the SAA, not as an armed militant but as a gunsmith. Before the rebel pocket in Damascus fell to the SAA, he worked on manufacturing ammunition, weaponry, and even mortars for the resistance. Also, he worked on hydro-dipping rebels' firearms. Currently, he resides in Idlib and had a short-lived business project there in hydro dipping firearms. He agreed to be interviewed and to inform us about his journey specifically in that field, given that there are hundreds of photos for Syrian rebels with painted firearms floating throughout the internet and it is quite common now to see an AK pattern rifle with complete camouflage on it. We in Silah Report wanted to know more about the industry and the people involved in it.
