A small surprise for me was learning that you can buy a fully functional tank in America for relatively little cash. Where I come from, even the thought of anybody but the army owning a tank is absurd.

The tanks’ guns are disabled. They aren’t functional tanks in regards to the one feature that makes a tank a tank.
