Why do Russian riffles always look like something that was made from scrap metal found in a dumpster?
>>
>>30335636
Because that's where they came from and where they should return to.
>>
>>30335636
because the government owns everything so theres no point to making it pretty for a consumer that doesn't exist
>>
Because russian gun designers don't give a shit about your sense of aesthetics, they only care for getting a functional weapon..
>>
>>30335636
Its so "only functional" its sexy

They are inferior to Tapco USA rifles

CHeck out my 9 hour video why I get 3 trucks stuck in the mud

>>30336188
I mean the AK was a communist rifle, with communist design principles, which essentially dictated Russian small arms development, so I'm not surprised most Russian small arms aren't very refined.

That being said, they have a certain subjective appeal to them, especially modern Russian small arms.

>>30335636
You mean why do they look rugged and manly? Because they are OP.

>>30339095
There's a difference between "manly" and "nigger but wrong color by accident".

I would take an AK instead of an AR anyday, anytime.
I'd rather have a mans gun than some plastic toy that comes with detachable dildos.

Not him, but as far as ordinary citizens' concern, China is every bit as capitalized as U.S. If not more so.

I kinda like the way they look.
Its a little rougher than an AR, and that gives it a charm of its own.

Good god, there's always one. Get your fucking head squared away. It is a machine. A machine made by people, and thus prone to fail or wear down at some point in time. It does not make you any less of a tryhard foppish fucking waif attempting to cover up insecurities about his masculinity with belongings. You're worse than some women.

Kill yourself back to your favorite text board. China isn't communist. I fucking hate commies but you should at least know what you're hating.
