My Polish Tantal Build Finished.
« on: May 27, 2016, 02:48:58 PM »
I don't really like a new looking AK-74 Rifle it takes the life and fun of ownership away, too me anyway.  :roll:

I really love the BFPU look, here is my most recent build with a Robert Bowman used Kit, a Childers Receiver, and a Chrome line Green mountain barrel.

They look OK and everything, but building or buying a rifle that is made to look like a BFPU, is like buying those pre-ripped an faded jeans.

Courage is knowing it may hurt and doing it anyway.
Stupidity is the same.
This is why life is so hard.

:) Well it is what it is, besides you shouldn't worry what anyone else thinks about your rifle anyway right?

I get enough wear on mine anyway, I don't need to start them out looking worn.  That would just bug to refinish it, so I can wear it off again.

Heh, well at the risk of making it about me even more, I was in one sentence, just explaining my rationale of not liking the BFPU idea, attempting to keep from offending you with my earlier comment, which I never intended.  I am not criticizing, it's just not my preference. I don't think it would have been better if I explained why you should not or just said its looks bad would it? 

Looks like a nicely done build of a worn rifle. With that I will leave this thread and let this be all about you from now on if it makes you feel better.
