Hilarious Gun Fails

I don't know if this type of thread exists but one gun sticks in my head as a factory fail. Feel free to add your own... it may be a custom one-off or a production gun.

What struck me about this one is you can actually find good reviews on it. It's a kind of "gun salad" with a mixture of all sorts of bizarre parts including a type-III ak-47 receiver, a AKS-74U dust-cover, an atrocious bipod mounted in a weird place, a MISSING rear sight and cleaning rod. LOL. Probably the most poignant factory fail of all time.

Anyone else know of any?

PS Check out the reviews!!! (on Airsoft GI)

I call it the Dragunot

LOL awesome. Thanks!

edit: not as much fail as I was anticipating. But good nonetheless. Not "JG" material!

I hope you burned it :P

Sadly I remember a time when abominations like that were the best 'dragunot' you could get... some kind of mishmash of AK parts with a stubby ak mag in the wrong caliber (7.62x39 instead of 7.62x54r). People don't seem to realize that a dragunov is more of a modernized SVT-40 than it is an AK.

Dude, those SVD AK thing stocks were super comfy. I'd rock one on an AK if they were easily available.

Agreed, most likely Khyber-Pass gun. Only one such gun is known to exist in a UK pattern room, and likely the single example from which any photos have been sourced from. Supposedly a mix of Tula AK and Chinese Type 56 parts.

Still, not sure if hilarious gun fail, if a single example IS known to exist, and the LCT is a fairly accurate representation of that one, by most accounts?

Especially considering the CYMA effort, which i would consider a bigger gun-fail - no evidence at all that the AKMSU existed at all in this configuration! CYMA released this version, before LCT released their version.

Any of the number of ARs that ship with folding stocks annoy me. I've been the odd one with a short buffer tube before the folding section which would be long enough for the bolt to telescope into, but most of them wouldn't function.
