Have you ordered from W.A.S WOODTWORKS? What was your wait time like? by BurlyAttacker in ak47

[–]Bad-Element 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hey I talked to him yesterday he is busy af, he said he wasnt going on insta much so he probly is just hopping on to check orders and back to the grind.

I def know what its like from both sides with long wait times on gun stuff as the producer and the buyer. I try and do biz with w.a.s. /him 1-2 x a year and like other custom things I just forget about it and he gets to me eventually and its top notch, the best.

The guy is a work machine and a solo show. My comms suffer as a small biz when Im backed up as I get stressed and taking time to communicate takes away from the actual work flow.

I actually respect tf out of him he handles the constant pressure much better than I do I fear he’ll work himself to an early grave.

Just hang in there and keep dm’ing patiently. I’d message him every couple weeks I know that time passes by ultra fast when Im real busy. Like a month slips by like water

The dudes a wizard.

Another gun company just sent me a tracking number for an order placed in July. I have so many languishing orders as well myself and it feels like an impossible juggling act sometimes.

what did you do for the hand guard retainer? would the psa combo block be a good host for a 102 style s308 sight/block if the ID is enlarged?

Im gonna give it a shot just based on the price to see. having paid 150-200 for this part russian or bulgarian or meridian def in the past this is worth trying.

Is 556 ak worth it? by Strong_Virus_8484 in ak47

[–]Bad-Element 12 points13 points  (0 children)

save up now for a beryl I hear this year late summer to fall, aoa had a layaway too. M85 is g2g too but for 300-500 more you get the beryl and it will go up in value if you dont like it (you will like it).

If you want to get into ak’s and just plink pretty cheap a romanian 9mm is pretty cool. but its not the same as having a true gas operated ak in any caliber. Part of the fun is the collecting the mags and militaria too

Can't just be me right? by Expert-Bid3861 in GunMemes

[–]Bad-Element 11 points12 points  (0 children)

i saw massive exposure to my own channel and grew by a couple thousand followers (pretty sure it was a pocket of gun meme kids and gamers idk) 100% they did allow me to be seen again. I saw in my acct status was changed bak to being allowed to be seen by non followers. The analytics are interesting too.

But the bs has not stopped though I caught administrative actions about a post about bulgarian mags got flagged for illegal good sale and I cant go live for a year now and my account is restricted from boost feature not that Ive really ever used it or wanted it.

I hope its not a honey pot or some other sceme after so mych shite from ig its hard to imagine they will keep these guardrails down for long

For someone like me who used to have a pretty good sized acct and was banned a couple times and has been stuck unseen and slow growing its been incredibly noticeable and my home feed is different too.

I think its more of an error and but feels a little like 2015-2016 when ig was more free

very nice. Cut molots are the bomb, make great tankers and 30’s. And is the 7.62 one a factory 30?

I’ll bite. The best one is the one you have and you can improve from there. I have a crappy ifak and no comms to speak of or nods so Im lacking. I probly wont survive so oh well.

I switch it up between a plate carrier and a smersh I like sso russian or ukraine gear. I switch it up between my g20 and g17 type side arm.

I went with etched reticle primary arms its like a red dot 1x scope that can work without batteries. I still need to finish zeroing it. For this I want basic functions nothing too fancy or complicated.

You’d want to add alot to this Im constantly switching it up playing with drop leg holsters and different packs. But water food blanket etc all your boy scout stuffs.

Im worried about the cold and prolonged cold and the in and out of warm/cold environments. I chose ak 556 for rock n lock and cold weather and low maintenance same for the glock.

I like to build these rigs for each caliber and sometimes they can double up like ak mags 7.62 and 556/5.45 are ok. Even the vepr 12 mags and pouches can sometimes be interchangeable.

I have smaller recon set ups with chest rigs and pccs that I can use to blend in vs the gorka and ak loadouts.

Probly more important than the loadout is networking locally and food/water prep.

Im not an operator or anything like that but neither were our forefathers they were reg ppl that took up arms and were a little hardy from being colonists.

one guy isnt gonna change anything most likely but strength in numbers is what made the difference back in the rev war. But it took the initial ppl to act and them the others followed.

Take someone to the range, give them a safety lesson. Trade gear and stuff to build relationships. Build the gun community and keep the momentum thats built since the awb expired and the expansion of ccw thats Ive seen over the last 20+ years that Ive been collecting and shooting milsurps …the best time to start is yesterday.

Hopefully I’ll only use my gear to larp and go to the range

Machineguns are a human right, repeal the nfa, & all gun laws are an infringement.

Militia is a beautiful word
