That's exactly what I'm talking about Decker. I was also reading somewhere that lads were sourcing old air soft BB guns for their "tactical" looking stocks.
Walshie. Leave me alone before I report you for bullying
Elliot. There are some brilliant craftsmen out there. Some of the custom stocks are cracking. But as you say, nothing but bling.
I have the privelidge to know some of the best blingers in the uk airgun world and a few that do FAC things too.
From an engineering background I appreciate the skills and work that goes into creating the rifles I'm talking about.
Personally I like wood. You can't beat a nice grain.
Is it because you can turn something into something it isn't? Or it's because it's something you can't have?
Forbidden fruits. So to speak.
As per the title but why do some folk feel the need to dress up a .22 or whatever calibre? to look like Something it isn't?
I have seen .22 rifles dressed as AK47's and such. I'm just a little curios as to why?
I'm by no means knocking it and their are some talented people out there, but for me a rifle is a tool. It's purpose is to do a job and not replicate something that it isn't.
one of the old boys on a farm I shoot sadly died a couple of years back. He was a winner.
You had to always have an extra hour planned on your visit for the long winded chat or helping him fix some run down old tat. He would often offer you a fag and want paying for it...!! Absolute gem of a bloke.
I would be very surprised if anyone gets paid whilst on their permissions.
You have to bear in mind there is a big difference between shooting a few bits of vermin once a week and pest control.
