Gunsmithing Hall of Shame Thread

OMG! That is in the top 5 Hall of Shame entries for sure. Freakin JB Weld! LOL

When you purchased 30 mm rings and find out your scope is actually a 1" tube.

[Kain]

That's exactly what I was going to ask. Epoxy? RTV? Something else even dumber?

I am not sure to question the presence of the JB weld, or the number of scope rings, or the fact that is appears to be on an AK railed top cover. Curious to know if it was wrong rings, or if the guy somehow thought that the zero was wandering and decided to make damn sure that scope doesn't move when the zero wandering because it a shit railed top cover. There just so much possible fail I can't even begin to delve into the mind.

Can't. Stop. Looking. At. It.

On one hand you have to admire the guy for his commitment and determination. On the other hand, wow, just wow.

Lol, I wonder how much that cost vs an off the shelf solution. I wonder how much it weighs as well.

[Mike Miller]

I imagine the eye relief would be difficult

And it's still just an AK with an AK top cover!

I'm impressed that the owner put so much thought on a scope (a cheap one from the looks of it) setup and possibly intends to shoot long range with his AK.

I'm interested to see how tactical the rest of the rifle looks. I won't be surprised if its an I.O.

Nice.
Because aks are just so powerful, and have so much recoil.

Some AK's do have more recoil. I have a Draco pistol that kicks pretty hard. Also have a Saiga 12gauge AK that has stout recoil esp with 00buck or slugs.

So a proper optic setup is a must...
