President Trump has long been an advocate of our Second Amendment Rights, but the incumbent is stepping things up a notchmaking it a centerpiece of his 2020 campaign. If the left gains power, they will confiscate your guns and appoint justices who will wipe away your Second Amendment and other constitutional freedoms, Trump said during his speech on the closing night of the Republican National Convention (RNC). We will defend your Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms. And if we don't win, your Second Amendment doesn't have a chance. I can tell you that. I have totally protected it.

But theres another side to that coin.

At the height of World War II, the Soviet Union relied on the 7.62x54R, a 19th century cartridge chambered in a 19th-century bolt-action rifle, the Mosin Nagant, as well as other small arms in the Soviet inventory. However, the benefits of an intermediate cartridge were clear to the Soviets. In 1943, work began on a new cartridge design, which eventually became the M43. Today, the round is known as the 7.62x39 mm, and its adoption by the USSR had significant ramifications during the 20th century. One of the most well-known platforms chambered for the round is the Russian RPD.
