OK - I gotta ask - WTF do we use the term "Battlefield Pickup"??? I have this vision of a bunch of Indians gathering up Custer's firearms, or peasants grabbing the guns from the cold dead hands of an attacking force (Red Dawn, anyone?) but just think about that - BATTLEFIELD PICKUP - I mean, would you really want a rifle that didn't protect its previous owner???? :dunno:

Maybe the owner wasn't smart or savy enough to use the weapon to stay alive. By the way, If I took one of my AK's and pulled it behind my truck like that to give it that worn look, the cops around here would arrest me for trolling for home kit builders:rofl:

Haha, man that was funny. I've never intentionally dragged an AK down the road. About as close as I've ever come was running over a Norinco on accident with a 4240 John Deere on a gravel road. :dumbass:
Still not as bad as the day I walked through Wal-Mart carrying two pink lamps (gifts) with my cousin (a guy) singing "Ima gonna get me a gun an' kill all da' ******'s I see"
Brillo pad and let it hang outside for a few , not Charlie ! I swear Magnus , it's just as well you're in another timezone , I think we'd end up dead if we ever got to hanging out Whats those famous last words , "Hey , I bet this would be cool" ? LOL Don't let nobody tweak you Magnus , I know you had more then $100. worth of fun and it still shoots lol
Yeah, I can only imagine what kinda damage we could do locked in your shop for a wk, LOL...That and Steph would probably kill us over the Ammo bill :slap:
Damn Magnus! :smilie_sc I think battle field pickup is an understatement. It looks as if someone was holding it while a bomb went off under there feet causing it to fly through the air then skidd down the road for a couple hundred yards.
You know if you want the real Jihad Joe look you can send it to me for refinishing here in AZ. I would pull it behind my Pathfinder through miles of authentic natural desert sand and dirt. Next to really make it look like it took years to get the well worn aged look I would rub it religiously against one of the many Palm and Date Palm trees we have here untill some of the hard edges were polished and smoothed up a tad.
Lastly I would have to put some drops of blood splatter here and there and then take a wiz on it so the patina can come out after a few days of being burried in compost. That should give you the authentic look you want.
BTW I can place brass tacks and such on the wood upon request if you want the tribal warlord look instead of just the straight Jihad Joe look. :cheers:
