I finished my little tacticool project finally and took her for a spin this morning. I have to admit, I was expecting some pretty hefty recoil from my little 7 pound monstrosity and I was hoping that the Jerry Miculek muzzle brake would help a little. As it turns out, that wonderful $60 hunk of metal on the end of the muzzle turned her into a pussy cat. Seriously, this thing kicks less than my SKS. It’s looking like I’m going to be shooting a lot of the glorious cartridge of the motherland in the next coming months. At least I have something that I can afford to shoot and is as much fun as my AR, Scarlett. I know some of you are champing at the bit, Byram especially, so here are links to some videos of the completed project and it being shot.

I hope you enjoyed this project, I had a blast. I hope to keep this up for future reference in case anyone wants to do something similar. Just be sure to search for “STUPID” on my blog. If you guys will excuse me, I have to order some more ammo.
Dive! Dive!
That turned out completely Awesome.
Great work and thanks for the videos; nice to see it in action. Looks slick
Thank you

what kind of coating is that?
Wally World special spray paint
krylon spray paint
Too damned cool. Still needs accessory rails and optical sight though. Or perhaps a folding bipod would be more suitable?
What’s really ironic is that an effort at satire may end up inspiring imitation instead of sober reflection.
BTW, from the video it looks like your prediction came true about the forward grip aiding bolt manipulation.
Cool project! You have me sold on muzzle breaks. And watch the open handed bolt manipulation, its a bad habit to get into. It doesn’t work well with every bolt gun so you’re better off pinching the bolt with your thumb and fingers. I know some unsolicited internet advice was what you were looking for…
And you didn’t have to beat the action open with a 2×4! Win!
