If it's alright, I wanted to share this picture of something I've been working on for a few weeks. But I didn't want to start a thread dedicated only to my project, so I labeled it "Cool Projects" in case anyone else wanted to share something they've worked on.
.. all this only if it's alright with y'all of *HmS*.
Anyway, here's my pretty girl..
Yugo SKS 59/66 w/Tapco USA T6 Stock UTG 3-Rail Receiver UTG Shell Deflector CenterPoint Red laser CenterPoint 4-16x40 Scope w/Dual Illuminated Reticle Magpul Broomstick and Collapsible Bipod Additional Magpul accessories include picatinny rails and rail guards. (not included in picture)
Currently being fitted with a Tapco USA SKS Muzzle Break
Some think I'm crazy for scoping this thing the way I have, seeing as how the drop from one of these tends to begin around 400 yards, but I was able to get this thing zeroed in enough to destroy a North Dakota shot-glass at 500 yards.. So long as you know how to throw it, you can put a 7.62x39 downrange a ways.
Hell, if anti-gun activists get their way 'round here, I'd be labeled as a terrorist for sure, just for having it. It's Semi-auto, but that wouldn't stop them. Already had one person try and tell me that I was a danger to society just for owning a gun.. hell, she needs to see my knife collection. >.>
That's the good part about being back home; I have all kinds of friends who are associated with the SWAT team here, as well as the PD and State Patrol. Lots of "CYA" buddies. :D
