DIY: Shovel AK - photo tsunami warning!

[Canndo]

That's just bad ass, Boris. Great job

 

[Rob Boudrie]

This would make a great feature article in one of the mainstrean gun rags, but they probably wouldn't be interested as Boris would not "just happen" to be running a full page somewhere else in the issue.

I hope this shovel makes it to an NES shoot. That alone will be worth the price of admission.

Who wants to bet within a week some news station will offer to interview Boris?

I hope he agrees to them. If it's local, I suggest he make some jokes about doing it to solve his turkey problems.

I think it should go in a museum for people's freedom. Unfortunately, that would probably be in another country.

He should make one from a old sheet meet toy tonka truck. So it's really" for the kids"
