Battlefield Pick Up Look: Dial up Warning!

[magnus392]

Ok, I decided I wanted a Battlefield Pick up Romy so I started working on it.... first with a wire brush...then with a chain...





Then me and Moonshiner got creative....



We thought it would be a good idea to see if an AK would stand up to being drug a few miles...





All was going well...then we lost our skier and had to go back and save it from being run over by another car...



So we rolled it over removed the bolt carrier, and top cover so we didn't rip the charging handle off.... And took off again!







Faster that time

Then when we got back into his yard, we put it back to there and drug it the rest of the 100yrds back to the shop and got it good and full of crap







After we hosed it out this is what it looked like:



Very Battlefield pick up look Oh yeah I finally got a Camera too!

hey dude. is that the parts kit i sold you????????? please say it aint lol

[MoonShiner]

Yep, that rifle is beat to shit ! It looks like it did 90mph cartwheels across the interstate. Wait.... it actually....did....

Seriously, I *LOVE* the way that looks. Pictures don't really do it justice. It definately captures the "battlefield pickup" theme. It also poaches into the "run over by a brigade of tanks" theme.

This style beats the ever-lovin' shit out of the safe-queen AK. You've brought the true grizzly nature back to this AKM. People that take glamour shots of their AK's may as well put a ribbon in it's hair, with a sun-dress and some knickers. I fuckin' *HATE* that shit. This one looks like it still has its testicles in tact

No, that one is still packed safely in the grease in it box, lol. This kit I picked up for a song because the barrel pin was a bugger. So DPH(and some numbers) here is a little revenge for you!!!

She still runs too!

wow, what a waste. I prefer to actually use my guns, for that used look.

Don't forget to rub some black grease into the fresh spots on the furniture to give it an aged look. Why did you take the snazzy winter forest cammo off

oh the humanity Whatever floats your boat magnus--but damn........lol must embrace the AK and hug 'em, and squeeze 'em, and pet 'em sorry lame attempt to mock the Looney Tunes character--looks good if that's they way it's intended to look

[cammobunker]

Looks more like "drug down the road behind a pickup on a chain" than Battlefield pick-up.......but it's your gun man, do whatever floats your boat.

[magnus392]

Well for starters it is just an AK...a Romy at that! Had I not had several more that looks just like it I might not have done it

Far as looking like it got drug down a road...Yeah, but I am sure worse has happened in the field

And it shoots fine still this one just has more character than the rest, so no waste has gone on here!
