This question may border on the idiotic, but when you leave Russia using your Russian passport, which passport do they stamp-- your Russian, your US or both?

Passport control does not care if you have a visa or not for your destination. They are only concerned that you have a right to leave Russia. When you arrive in the US, they only care that you have a right to enter so all that is necessary is a US Passport, green card or US visa. You don't need to show a Russian passport.

I was wondering how does it work while crossing the borders? From what I know, the US allows, but doesn't encourage dual citizenship; and I don't think Russia allows it. So, if one is going to the US from Russia, and is using the US passport - won't Russian customs look for a visa in it, how you got in the country in the first place and whether or not you are leaving on time? And if there is no visa there (since one entered on Russian passport), will they create a problem for you? I know de-facto that tons of people travel on both passports, I just don't know the mechanics of it. Any info you may spare? Thank you!
