Post a bad gun.
I always dreaded hearing the sound of AK-47s myself!

5. Bucky Done Gun
Bucky Done Gun M.I.A. lyrics
Artist: M.I.A.
Album: Arular
Year: 2005
Title: Bucky Done Gun


London
Quiet down I need to make a sound
New York
Quiet down I need to make a sound
Kingston
Quiet down I need to make a sound
Brazil
Quiet down I need to make sound

They're coming through the window
They're coming through the door
They're busting down the big wall
And Sounding the horn

What you Want
Bucky Done Gun
What you want
The Fire Done Burn
What you want
Bucky Done Gun
Get Crackin' Get Get Crackin'

Time to spit new shit
I'm rocking on this new bit
I'm hot now you'll see
I'll fight you just to get peace

Heavy Weight Wrestler
Fight me in your comforter
Let you be superior
I'm flithy with the fury ya

London
Quiet down I need to make a sound
New York
Quiet down I need to make a sound
Kingston
Quiet down I need to make a sound
Brazil
Quiet I need to make sound

I'll hard drive your bit
I'm battered by your sumo grip
Lucky I like feeling shit
My Stamina can take it
Gymnastics Super Fit
Muscle in the gun clip
Bite, Teeth Nose Bleed
Tied up in a scarf piece

What you Want
Bucky Done Gun
What you want
The Fire Done Burn
What you want
Bucky Done Gun
Get Crackin' Get Get Crackin'

Can I get control
Do you like me vulnerable
I'm armed and I'm equal
More fun for the people
Physical, Brute force
Steel, lion you're the boss
Yeah, you're so do-able
Grind me down sugar slow

What you Want
Bucky Done Gun
What you want
The Fire Done Burn
What you want
Bucky Done Gun
Get Crackin' Get Get Crackin'

30. What parameters are we using to define "bad?"
I'd say a bad gun is one of those Saturday night specials where the glue starts melting off the cheap plastic handles after you fire the pistol three or four times. Eww.

AK-47s, on the other hand - they're workhorses that rarely jam and adapt to many of the toughest environments on Earth.

44. That one has been dressed up to look like an AK...
Edited on Sun Apr-30-06 02:00 PM by benEzra
and the mag well has been enlarged to take a standard-width magazine. To do this, you have to install enough U.S. made parts to avoid running afoul of 18 USC 922(r), which prohibits imported self-loading rifles from having handgrips that stick out.

Here's a Saiga in hunting trim:



It's slightly less powerful than a .30-30 Winchester (123-grain bullet at 2350 fps, or a 150-grain bullet at 2000 fps or so), meaning it's OK for deer inside 125 yards, but isn't capable of humanely dispatching a deer much beyond that distance. Factory magazines hold 5 or 10 rounds. They also make them in .308 Winchester.

Here's another Saiga, with polymer furniture instead of wood, and what looks like a 5-round magazine instead of a 10-rounder:



The AK lookalike I posted a photo of earlier in the thread is also legal for hunting; it's not a real AK-47, it just looks like one.
