While this was a nice gesture, would 101 random weapons bought off equally random Florida Men all at least share the same ammo? A gunβs just an awkward club without proper ammo.
Depends, looks like the rifles here are AK and AR style, so they probably take 7.62mm (which I imagine is pretty common in Eastern Europe) and 5.56/.223 (which the US military is probably supplying them by the bucket), respectively. That said, the hand guns are probably a mix of .22, 9mm, and .45 among other random less common calibers
The 7.62x51 NATO round used in AR-10/LR-308 pattern rifles isn't the same as the common 7.62x39 used in AK-47 pattern rifles. But I'm sure getting NATO ammo isn't exactly hard for them right now.
