A new kind of rust blue finish.
 
Probably shoots MOA.....
 
Reckon it'll still go full auto?
 
Ready for the scrap yard looks like! Look at the pitting! And I bet they still fire.
 
Manufactured in the mountain caves of Afghanistan
 
As sad as it is, someone probably held this thing (and ready to use it) with their life on the line. I'm only basing this statement because they took the time to put new furniture on it.
 
Is that the new ergo pistol grip? great camo finish :sick:
 
Wow. I know AK's are reliable but I'd be a bit nervous to pull the trigger on that one. Yikes!
 
poor quality control if you ask me
 
More than likely shoots Minute of Elephant...

That's good.... I always called $hitty groups MOM.... Minute Of a Melon.

Now, now. We can't make a judgment call based on the appearance of his rifle. Let them post some pictures of the groups it produces.
 
Like to know how many grains of powder and whether he uses tsx or norma or just a piece of rebar..... maybe hornady dgs?
 
The AK, only thing that has killed more than a Toyota in Africa.

If that thing was in use prior to the picture, which i think it was based on the wood and the sling, its a testament to the manufacturing.

I wouldn't like to be too close to it on full auto though... :A Blowup:

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...
Behind the scenes of taking that perfect picture.....

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris
