/K/ino or cringe?
>>65514886Gaudy as fuck, but to be expected from a bunch of broke motherfuckers winning the lottery.
>>65514886I was expecting much more gold
>>65515004Same. It's honestly pretty tasteful, as far as Arab guns go.
>>65514886Frankly I'm shocked it's not more gaudy with rhinestones and chrome plating. This is actually quite restrained for arab tastes
>sheet metal>gold platedLike a mansion in a trailer park, or really expensive rims on a Geo Metro
>ermahgersh le gun jeebus just dropped a new video lemme post it on /k/
>>65515158>Triggered this hard
I have a YouTube feed, you don't need to post it here.>>65514920True.
it's almost as gay as the person presenting it.
The amount of seethe Ian creates by simply posting videos of him fingerfucking guns whilst giving history and design specs is absolutely hilarious, and only proves that 90% of the hate on this site is just spergs who will still watch the videos like good little cucks.
>>65515572YOU JUST NEED TO BE FUCKING THROWN OFF A BRIDGE, WORTHLESS SACK OF SHIT.>>65515160JUST FUCKING DIE

>>65515572I was one of the original followers of ForgottenWeapons website (remember that) back when his YT videos used to get 2,000 viewsIt's pathetic that tens of millions of furry nogunz video gamers have become 'firearm connoisseurs' or whatever people posting itt think/conceive that they are, thanks to the now-massive following Ian's YT channel has garnered in almost two decades.(on the one hand, you want to be positive and say 'well am glad people are becoming more educated about firearms history and mechanics' but...) More a phenomenon, reflection of what video games have done to human civilization overall than the gun hobby or firearms sector-market per sepathetic
>>65514886I thought it was quite elegant but maybe I have awful taste
>>65514886Seems like something hoodlums would do so cringe
>>65515754whenever I think gold-plated guns Deagle comes to mindiirc there were some rather finely done (also engraved) .38 Super 1911s for the Mexico cartels
>>65514886Kinda shocked it isn't painted white as well. Every Mideastern thinks the American dream is a white BMW with gold rims.
IMO ceremonial guns should focus more on nickel/polished bluing and nice walnut furniture, something that would look elegant but also like something the guards holding will actually use if needed.
>>65515766I have never seen a white person drive a BMW
>>65515782kek
>>65515782BrownMan'sWheels
>>65515733So was I, and I don't really care. That website still exists, also.
>>65515733>I liked Ian before it was coolI thought the hipsters went extinct during Covid
>>65514920you think THAT is gaudy? it's kinda.. fine? I could do without the wood engraving, the gold touches look kinda nice like a brass wouldneeds a few spots of gold something neat the back tho, it's not even enough.. Black with small gold accents on buttons and pins can look really fucking nice
>>65515778It's not really a ceremonial rifle for honor guards and whatnot, but more of a presentation gun for diplomatic gifts and such.
>>65515897I had the same thought but about the butt plate and grip
>>65515733His videos barely break 50k these days. Its over
>>65516103eat shit mutt
>>65514886That's way tamer than what the thread title made me think. Actually doesn't look too bad.
kys
kys.
>>65514886Listen, when you can afford to gold plate your G3 or any other firearm for that matter, you don't give a flying fuck about what some teen on a gun forum thinks. Teens try to fit in. That's why you see them use /k/id words like 'kino', 'cringe', 'boomer', and shit words like that trying to sound cool. It's a sign of insecurity.That said, I wonder how well it would stand up to getting wet if I did that to mine?
>kys>kys
>>65516103He has many videos with 8+ million views. (depends on the topic if it's an exceedingly rare or particular historic firearm/variant, they can go viral)As the other anon said however the paranoidschizomouthbreathernogunz chimp seethe he's generated for years on 4chan + boomer15 daht cahm is nourishing
>>65515580lol calm down
>>65515126>Sheet metal is le bad!
>>65515599>reddit linkYou are the subhuman.
>>65516343excellent discernment and taste(although yes a gold plated one of these would be pointless)
>>65516343Yes, clearly you've never held an AR180 because they all look like they were made on a Friday afternoon
>>65516343Not the best example, original AR18s/AR180s are not terribly well built. Howa's ones are better than Armalite's and Sterling's examples, but the original design as a whole is a bit underbaked.It looks cool in a Cold War assault rifle sense, but it'd look atrocious with bling on it.
>>65516483>atrocious with bling Sounds like a perfect candidate for big gold heavy chains as a sling
>>65514886That is extremely tasteful for an Arab decoration gun. The woodwork was a bad choice though. Should have either gone all-in on some quality work or left it alone. This is the kind of thing where a half-assed attempt is worse than none at all.
>>65516483>HowaThese are the intended standard of manufacture (I own one)it's just a stamped receiver design, but is a true lightweight rifle compact and highly portable
>>65515126>>65516343>>65516443>>65516483How about extruded aluminum?
>>65516543I think I threw up in my mouth a little.
>>65516543I just don't understand how the FDE craze morphed into anodized gold
>>65515744>maybe I have awful tasteI doubt that, brother manr
>>65516597I run these streets.
>>65516543>SCAR is already a fucking ugly rifle>so let's slap on a coat of gold paintI don't care if it's anodized, it's got the same level of class and aesthetic as if they had spraypainted the fucking things gold.
>>65516619you got something against rattlecanning rifles, senpai
>>65517124Yes, if done fucking poorly and ugly, and then also at a premium.
>>65516343Not bad desu.
Would be kind of cool to get gifted one of these and bring it home in a "diplomatic pouch" where customs,etc cant do shit to it or even look inside. You know there is some diplomat out there that got gifted one of these that has this thing displayed in their office, fully functional. haha
>>65515572I don't like him profiting by shilling new imports on his channel and then making mad dosh from them once his viewers scramble for themBut he is informative for a kike
>>65514886oh hey, is this the thread?i saw this come up for sale for $700.how many parts are directly interchangeable with a chink ak?
>>65517652Not the barrel for a start.
>>65517658obviously
>>65517652>airsoft on my weapons boardDisgusting
>>65514886Gold leaf is for niggers and nouveau riche boomers who might as well be niggers when it comes to taste in decor.
>>65517652>how many parts are directly interchangeable with a chink ak?the underfolder kinda. you need the actual internal button off a real one. might be able to re rivet on the sheet metal triggerguard.nothing else
