Odd Stories: Russian Villager Buys Arms Suppy for 15 Dollars




Sovkhozny, Russia - He only wanted to get some firewood for his stove for the winter. Instead a villager found himself in possession of almost 80 guns and more than 250 cartridges.

The man said he bought the 60 crates for 15 dollars (500 rubles) from an unidentified truck driver who said he was on the way to a recycling plant from one of Russia's oldest arms manufacturing plants. All of the guns are in working order and were made around 1959.

Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin said he's going to launch a probe into the mysterious appearance of the rifles.

Due to cost-cutting measures and negligence on the part of the country's defense two decades ago, so many weapons pour out of the country that it's the second-highest exporter in the world.
