You’ve likely seen this already but, just in case, here’s a list of companies still doing in Russia. You can filter and sort it by a variety of attributes like name, country, industry sector and some general categories to describe the actions they’ve taken (e.g. “Digging in”, “Scaling back”, etc.). They also link to this site which provides E-mail and social media contact info if you would like to add your voice to those already calling for them to stop doing business.
At this point, I’d be surprised to see too many of the companies that haven’t pulled out already see the light and make significant changes but it can’t hurt to maintain some level of pressure and visibility due to their actions (or lack thereof).
It’s less “surplus” and more stolen. Supply officers figuring out they can sell the gear coming through their post and make multiple times their annual salary from selling them to surplus groups. A lot of poorer countries have that problem, iirc it was a significant part of why the US wasn’t willing to supply the Afghan military with tech.
Interesting idea, not something I’d want to fire by hand though. I could see that going poorly if the reinforcement disks didn’t hold up and the stick just ended up shattering the lit bottle of flammable liquid.
