I was never big on tactical stuff, I've owned and sold more semi auto pistols than I could count but with all the weird stuff going in the world and this country I decided owning a few wasn't such a bad idea. I decided AK's were the way to go because of there time proven reliability and more bang for the buck over the AR's. These aren't stock as you can tell, they both have T6 collapsible stocks and the forearms have been replaced with machined aluminum 4 rail systems. Both guns have Woff Extra Power recoil springs and recoil buffers. The pistol grips were replaced with Hogue rubber. The gun on the right has a 3x9 Tactical Iluuminated Mil Dot as well as a lazer and 700 lumen light with strobe option, I also added an M16 flash suppresor. This gun on the bench will shoot moa with cheap Brown Bear ammo which is another plus over the AR, I can buy 500rds for 100.00. The gun on the left has a Ultradot Pan A V and a 500 lumen light/lazer combination. The vest holds four 30rd AK mags and six Glock mags as well as the Glock it's self. The Glock 22 has had the action worked and heavy recoil spring and recoil buffer installed. The 1911 is my Frankenstein gun, the frame is new production, the slide is WWII, the barrel is surplus Vietnam and the innerds are Wilson Combat. I have a leg holster coming for the 1911 on the right leg and 2 mags on the left. The derringer is a Rohm 38spcl and I reduced the trigger pull to 4.5lbs.

So lets see what you have.





I've posted this pic before but this is the Draco I've been working on. We are waiting for my customer to get his SBR permit so we can add a stock and then it will be Cerakoted in a fish scale camo pattern.

Rod, I hear you!
When PCTS, there is no such thing as too much gun.
Here is a picture of my truck in the parking lot at work...

here you go it didn't come up for some reason. I like it, where can I get one? I've actually looked at Vietnam era Deuce and halfs, nothing like 10 wheel drive!

It is today's trend, now it's all auto pistols and AR rifles, the gun shops still have a few revolvers, but not like they used to.

I've noticed that too, it started when obama was elected. I did a transfer for a customer on christmas eve and I was on the phone for half an hour holding. They said over the few days leading up to Christmas there were 1.5 million background checks done. If obama gets re elected he'll have nothing to lose and so called assault weapons will be the first thing to go. They were supposed to allow the importation of 1 million M1's we left in south korea after the war and he stopped that but at least thanks to the NRA we'll be getting something like 83,000 of them but they won't allow the carbines in because they think they'll be used by gang bangers. They have already implemented back door gun registration on semi auto rifles on the southern border states and that's just the beginning if he gets re elected.
