It’s hard to tell whether or not this picture is authentic because the quality is so low, but regardless its funny.

Just when I thought the AK couldn’t get any more versatile! :D

For Example: Ballistic software applications in the field:

The iPad is of course on the right :P

Forgive the low quality.. it was the best I could come up with given the quality of the picture.

Picture taken on top of Rio hotel Voodoo lounge patio, KAC’s mini thermal scope in front of the M110 scope over looking Vegas skyline.

The picture below shows the rifle itself.  Not sure why it’s white and pink. Maybe so it would show up better in dark pictures, not scare the girls, be easier to locate in the crowd?

I don’t know how much drinking was going on at that party, but I wouldn’t want my expensive rifles anywhere near drunk people and/or top floor balconies. :P

This is what it would look like:

Complete with inert bejeweled hand grenades, and rocket launchers.

John Haughey over at OutdoorLife’s Blog has an interesting article on the SHOT show round up of Smith & Wesson lawbreakers.

The article is surprisingly sympathetic.  As you know from my post The Smith & Wesson indictment irony I hardly share John’s sympathy.

From my point of view, what happened at S&W was pure greed.  After a blockbuster year thanks to Obama, they still needed more money, and were willing breaking the law to get more of it.  Without personally knowing the inner workings of S&W, I can say with confidence that they have numerous lawyers, all of which would know better then to say bribery would be a good thing for the company.

I do agree with John on the ridiculousness of  the following:

“Let’s see, at $75,000 a year, it’s $6,250 a month per agent,” he calculates. “$6250 x 30 months = $187,500 per agent. $187,500 x 250 agents = $46,875,000 to arrest 22 people.”

Voila! That’s $46.875 million of your tax money to arrest 22 people, or more than $2.1 million each.

If FBI agents really do make $75k /year and all 250 of them were working solely on this sting, then that is a crazy amount of money.  It would definitely work out to much more than $2.1 million if you factored in expenses besides just their salaries.

I’ll take this opportunity to make the same joke as I did in my last post:

If you are sympathetic towards S&W, buy some handcuffs – HERE :P
