>paint
>not staining it in rit dye or kool aid
>not refinishing it in exoticly colored shellac
>>28427882
forgot my face
>>28427882
That's wood dye...
You could have picked a better color red.
Brick or blood red.
Nice strawberry AK.
>>28428241
Thanks! End results...
>>28427853
>>28427898
Red is strictly for less than lethal. Jackass
>>28427882
>kool aid
I knew about rit dye staining, but can you seriously use kool aid?
>>28428843
LENSES ON AIMPOINTS APPEAR RED OH NO
>>28428827
Damn man, that looks pretty good. I'll have to try it with my original wood from my WASR.
>>28428827
>fuel injection
I can't...I just can't...
>>28428827
Wow! Your shit taste extends all the way to motorcycles, unbelievable!
>>28428827
Okay, I was skeptical, but now I like it. What brand did you use? Any sort of stains over the top, or just shellac? I want to do the same thing with my Rhino grip, but in a blood red. Advice?
>>28428943
can't what?
Step into the 21st century?
>>28428947
how can "taste" be bad?
>>28428924

tl'dr pigments are not the same as light.
>>28428921
sure you could use it.
Probably be absolute shit though. Get any sun on it and you'll end up with a pink AK
>>28428983
Nigga i was already there, my bike isn't slow.

>>28429164
It's not that bad, I'd like it if it were a little more orange as I like the chicom blonde look.
>>28429175
Old enough that it wasn't made in Canada or Mexico.
>>28428827
That actually fits well. Good on ya OP.
>>28429168
what's the definition of "shitty?"
how did you arrive at that definition?
>>28429214
Lets be honest here, Bolt is not the crowning achievement of Yamaha.
>>28428843
I thought it was blue
or orange
who really cares except professionals in a training environment and tacticool nerds
>>28429250
>who really cares except
police.
>>28428953
What is the marketed advantage of a Rhino? Or is it just a rule of cool thing straight from the manufacturer.
>>28429164
dat dainty pinky
>>28429283
Less snappy recoil which revolvers are victims of thanks to a bunch of weight over the barrel.
Also it looks cool as shit so they get a price tag to match.
>>28429283
Rhino owner here.
The recoil goes straight back into the arm in line with your bones, rather than having a bunch of flip. The result is that felt recoil lowers pretty dramatically. Shooting .38 feels so, so soft, and .357 is a lot easier to handle.
Also it looks cool as shit, so it gets a price tag to match.
>>28429260
where did you come up with that shit?
any policeman that cares what color your gun is is a dead policeman.
>>28428995
Holy fucking retarded
>>28429348
We know you are but you'll learn.
>>28429224
let's be honest here, it's shitty because you don't like it.
>>28429373
No, I don't like it because it's an SOHC v-twin with not enough power to match the displacement.
Yamaha also makes the FZ-09, it has less displacement but more power, and it weighs less. Bolt is a poorfag Harley point blank. It has none of the torque to make it a cruiser and it has none of the horsepower to make it a "street bike" It's a piece of shit because Yamaha fucked up and i feel bad for the sucker that bought it.
>>28429413
I know it's a MT-07 with some retro shit but I still want the xsr700, Yamaha please

Man, why don't you guys ever post these beautiful guns? They're fucking cool as fuck. I think red AKs and specifically this one >>28430266 are absolutely sexy.
>>28430371
I (>>28430266) downloaded >>28430231 this guy's picture and try to post it before he does in these threads. I've seen his pictures in tons of threads amigo.
>>28427853
The most I've done with my ak's wood is clean it up with out damaging the trench art and refinishing it. Now in general the craziest thing i did with wood is refinishing the extra beat to shit sks i got to bubba around with in an ebony stain but damn do chink stocks hate stain so it didn't turn out very well.
>>28428924
Actually no it's not, neon yellow and sometimes orange is. Ex. Look at those police shotguns made exclusively for those gay ass taser rounds and those training shotguns sold on buds.
>>28427853
I WANTEd to do a green stain w/high gloss poly for a finish on my Romy G kit, but wound up being a pussy and just using BLO on a sanded furniture kit. . . . I regret not having an ak that was "Green for the money & Gold for the honeys"

Anyone have a blue laminate AK pic? Or any kind of laminate?
If i had a rhino I'd be tempted to mod it to look like the bladerunner pistol.
>>28427882
Fuck that, I'm going to do a lime green nitro finish like an electric guitar. I have the sprayer and the lacquer already. Sure my furniture isnt flame maple but it will still look cool.

I could get behind some OD green, bonus points for muh le white sherman meme star reddit edition subreddit
>>28431698
i almost want to find a spare stock for my m44 to refinish with some OD-ish green just for something a little different. i don't really want to do it on the original stock which i kept in the lightly dinged up condition it was in when i got it years ago.

I like you a lot. Sorry to steal your highlight, it means a lot that someone actually liked my rifle.
I'm not super lonely, I just admire that you've been consistent. I'll dump the rest of my reds.

Here's a pre-conversion. As it turns out groundhogs can't see color, deer can't see reds or greens, and coyotes see only yellows and blues. Red is realistically a great choice for non-humans.

From what I can tell you'll only get so pale with the type of wood your stock is, but you can get pretty far.
>>28429102
Shaft driven bikes are gay as fuck
>>28431457
Make an actual skeleton stock
>>28432690
>>28432806
i took a bucket, dumped a jug of chlorox in it, and soaked the furniture until it was white
i had to leave the lower handguard in longer because it was a much darker wood the other pieces.. it started as a bulgarian ak74 set from apex for reference.
>>28433102
How's the wood holding up? No cracks?
>>28433137
nope it's fine
>>28429102

Look at this guy who doesn't know about Universal Joints.

you can bleach the wood to make it lighter..

A V65 Sabre.
>>28433217
m8 the only thing on that drivetrain that will ever break is the engine because they were first gen V4s and Honda couldn't sort out the growing pains. Unless i take the jaws of life to it it'll be just fine.
>>28436200
>drivetrain
powertrain* fuck me i just woke up.
>>28435773
People changing their opinion on the internet?
Whoa.
>>28428827
>>28433554
gotta admit, the way the grain of the wood is stained on the shoulder stock there... looks pretty fucking amazing
>>28428843
No, no it isn't.
Also guess what, my PD's shotguns are LL and they look just like the normal ones.
>>28428827
Fuck, that's nice.
Wish I didn't hump the asphalt with my 500R, now I want to go out and take a ride.
I like orange polymer.

Why does nobody make reproduction bakelite mags?
>>28437348
Orange polymer plus bakelite mags are the sex
>>28427853
Tried to Russian red mine with some min wax stain called sangria, it turned out a little meh. Not too worried about it though.
>>28430266
You have been checked.
>>28437369
>>28437334
So fucking cold i tried to start my bike an hour ago and it backfired so loud i went deaf in my ear.
Neighbors started riding around slowly look around like they always do when it (frequently) backfires.
>>28437704
Oh god that looks terrible.
>>28434871
nice as hell
>>28437894
Agreed. It looks a tad better in person, and my friends all really like it, but I wasn't satisfied with it at all. I'll probably end up getting a new set of furniture that's not made of the shit wood like what came with it, and stain it a more traditional brown color.
>>28437952
You're looking at this wrong.
Embrace your inner African Warlord/Cartel Boss and ride into battle with your Versace Strawberry AK.
>>28437952
I stained mine with reddish brown and then hit it with like 5 coats of BLO.
>>28437972
Looks sharp, I'll remember it.
How do you get the classic Russian red shellac look?
>>28438044
With red shellac maybe?
>>28438044
Would also like to know this.
You used to be able to use brown stain and then scarlet rit dye for it, but rit changed their formula, and now when you run the acetone through it to mix into your finish, it turns an ugly washed out blue color.
I refinished this Balkan furniture and threw it on my saiga. I thought it turned out nice.
>>28437952
Try sanding it down and adding more layers of red dye, then maybe a couple coats of lacquer.
>>28438127
Terrible advice, staining your shit red will not achieve that orangey/red warm glow of Russian shellac. Only shellac will give you that look.
>>28438179
I've used stain before using a dark red and it came out pretty good. But shellac is probably better.
>>28438179
Damn that looks sexy. Do you stain it beforehand or just use shellac alone?
>>28438199
>it came out pretty good
Doubt it, never seen good results from stain when trying to get that Russian red look. It always just ends up looking like exactly what it it is, wood stained red.
>>28438227
Neither, it's real Soviet laminate.
>>28438278
I worded that wrong. If I were to use shellac to try and get that look, would I stain it with something brown beforehand or would the shellac go right onto the unfinished wood?
>>28431457
Working with bone releases insanely tiny particles that fuck up your lungs big time
>>28438301
Dunno honestly, I didn't want to bother figuring it out so I just bought it (actually two sets). There's a Zed infograph floating around that explains how to do it.
>>28438278
You do know the soviets use shellac on their laminate, right?
>>28430266
are you a fucking wizard?

Ah, yes, the beanbag AK.
>>28437218
its fairly common and cheap to produce. literally ply wood with some of the layers died blue. easy to make yourself if you have the carving tools
>>28441327
do they have that? I want one!
>>28441359
You could probably modify one to work with simunition.
Is there a good place to get a wooden foregrip for a Wasr 10?
