-- Insurgent Group Weapons --

Rule 1: The weapons they use are primarily what they can obtain locally

Rule 2: The rank is not on the shoulders, it's the weapon

Rule 3: Take careful note of how arms are displayed in Propaganda. It's for a reason and has an intended effect
Rule 4: Operational arms are *often* rather different to ones shown in media (See Rule 3). This isn't always the case

Rule 5: Analysing a group's arms must be part of the wider spectrum

Rule 6: If someone is obsessing over a group having weapons from X country, they're a shill
Rule 7: I made this list arbitarily because I am bored, and the IS Media Diwan is apparently utterly paralysed.
