Mongol-Swede Thrift Store for Armaments

[Mongol-Swedes]

The Mongol-Swede Thrift Store for Armaments specializes in supplying the unconventional military with low-cost, effective, and reliable equipment, specially designed for use against massive, high-tech militaries.

 

An online catalog will be coming soon. In the meantime, we are seeking anyone who is willing to subcontract for the following services:

 

Production: Provide assets for the manufacturing of our weapons systems. Profit sharing will be discussed on a case-by-case basis, but we encourage a fair deal for all employees and workers involved.

 

Shipping: Assist in ensuring that the customer gets their order quickly and in prime condition. Profit sharing will be discussed as noted above.

 

Research and Development: While the Union does not invest in heavy military equipment research, we are always eager to improve the equipment we do have. Again, profit sharing is on a case-by-case basis.

[Marsitrania]

The proud nation of Marsitrania, while small, could potentially fill the production niche which you are looking for. Although we are not as technologically modern as the other powers of Europa just yet, we have a robust and dependable military infrastructure which is highly adaptive despite our country's lack of highly sophisticated technology. We equip our own forces with a supply of well-made steel and wood rifles and carbines, as well as portable mortars and light truck-mounted rockets. We also have a number of 1980s era rocket-propelled grenade launchers. Our artillery is generally lightweight, towable by truck or horse and ranges from 45mm to 81mm in strength.

 

Right now we are undergoing a concerted military R&D effort aimed at a near-future rearmanent, and as the modernization of our military begins we will have a huge stockpile of these current weapons available for sale, with more becoming available as we transition our main force. All of our weapons are affordable and durable, although heavier weapons obviously will cost more. Despite the fact that they are somewhat dated, they are all promised to be functional and many will be in a factory fresh condition, since our country has not gone to war in living memory. While our arsenal is rapidly falling behind our current defence concerns, there is no reason why these weapons would not be desirable for developing nations, private use or as historical collection artifacts. The Marsitranian government has authorized the sale of these weapons, to a third party broker if necessary, and will hold a semi-annual arms bazaar for foreign inspection. Please contact us further if you are interested in a future contract with our government.

Subject: Contract Proposal

 

Your proposal is agreeable. The aim of this arms storefront is to facilitate the growth of developing nations and equip them to defend themselves from larger, aggressive nations. Part of our subcontracting agreement would also entail that your nation would receive a discount on our sales. Generally speaking, the Union does not dabble in sophisticated weapons equipment itself, but has become a great power in the region nonetheless.

[Marsitrania]

We accept the Union's contract. In five years time both parties can choose whether or not to renew the agreement. As soon as you have established shipping lines for us we will can begin arms transfers to your clients. Your own representatives are welcome to make an appointment to inspect our saleable weapons and equipment at their leisure. Pleasure doing business with you.

Re: ?Mongol-Swede Thrift Store for Armaments?

 

Honoured and esteemed opponents,

 

Although our nations share many ideals and values, especially ones in relation to Socialism, we have often found each other at odds, mainly in relation to overseas policies. We hope that, in time, we can over come both religious and political differences and become firmer friends.

 

However, the Imperial Government is concerned with the latest Mongol-Swede initiative. We realise that your nation thinks that smaller nations need to also have a ?level playing field? when it comes to larger and/or more well-equipped nations, but it smacks of supplying terrorist groups, especially in the wording used in the first paragraph of the advertisement. Other than that, we feel we do agree with most of the ideas of the initiative, especially the fair deal of the workers and employees.

 

Therefore, whilst Tagmatium will take no immediate action, the Imperial Government will watch the progress of the ?Thrift Store? warily, and the Mongol-Swedes will be the first to know of any concerns that Tagmatium has. Any action will, of course, be purely in the form of written words. We respect the Mongol-Swedes too much to sink to the level of base threats, which would not get us anywhere.

Re: "Mongol-Swede Thrift Store for Armaments"

 

This initiative is in response to the aggressive belligerence displayed by the Renndian dictatorship in Tarragat; our aim is to provide a market for lesser-than-developed nations with the means to adequaetly defend themselves from this kind of senseless aggression. Understand that regional stability is our primary concern, and that we will take every measure to ensure that our clients are faithful; your armed forces witnessed firsthand one of those measures.

 

The Mongol-Swede Thrift Store for Armaments will be a transparent operation, open to investigation at anytime by any curious party, governmental, independent, or otherwise.

Honoured and esteemed opponents,

 

We thank you for your cooperation on this matter. Once again, the Mongol-Swedes have shown themselves to be honourable and trustworthy people, a nation that treats even its enemies chivalrously, unlike a certain other nation who sided with them on the fate of Tarragat Island.

Failure to safeguard this information will result in strong adverse action; Mongol-Swede justice is swift and relentless, as you have doubtless seen.

As part of our just war, we would like to purchase 250 B 10 recoilless rifles, however, we are unsure of the price of tese weapons.

I don't think M-S is very active anymore. I'd suggest looking elsewhere for your needs.
