Could a Soviet Citizen Own A Gun?

The attitude of the Soviet authorities to the presence of weapons in the possession of its citizens varied greatly, from full permission to (almost) total prohibition. During the Russian Civil War, the Soviet government allowed a variety of small arms and bladed weapons - and actively armed the working people. But already in 1918 it took it all back and demanded that the population immediately surrendered all weapons for the needs of the Red Army. Only the members of the Communist Party were allowed to carry one weapon with them. The same duality was present during the World War 2 - almost every Soviet man had to fight in it but the government demanded that all the hunting weapons and all the German weapons had to be handed to them - within 24 hours. So today we will try to understand - what exactly was allowed in the Soviet Union for regular citizens? Could they train with guns? Keep it at home? Go hunting? Or were they completely defenseless against the mighty State? 00:00 - Introduction 02:07 - How the Bolsheviks armed the country, disarmed and armed again 08:21 - Guns after WW2 - who could own them? 13:35 - Gun Culture in the Soviet Union Special thanks to my Patrons: Mike Pearce, Kirill Klimuk, Steak221, Ravenghast, Yelizaveta Zakharova, Adam Stakhanov, Devon Hodgson, Sarah McMaster, Yuval Carmon, Jason Vanin, Simon Böse, Triskelia, Niels Dowgwillo, Michael, Jordan LaMothe, Eli, Jimmy Albin, Petar Ilic, College Russian, Bruce Eternick.

Somehow you found my video and decided to watch it. So let me introduce myself. I'm Sergei and I'm from Russia. My channel is about my native country. I want to tell English-speaking viewers about the real Russia, about its past and present. Unfortunately, you can find a lot of propaganda about Russia on the Internet, both from the Russian media and from the Western ones. I want to tell you about Russia, as it really is, the country in which I was born, grew up, and lived all my life. Free Stock Footage provided by Videvo.net and Videezy.com.
