I was thinking the same thing. So much red tape involved trying to get one thing engineered.

I am quite proud of these guys and their ingenuity. They must feel quite alive working to obtain this common goal.

I can see it now, some enterprising young Libyan will make his way to LA and offer these to clear traffic jams. In for 1at least.

Impressive. Although I wouldn't volunteer to scrape explosives out of a landmine. Ever.

Kiemyster · 06-17-2011, 02:13 PM

Damn.... I admire them, they are fucking bringing the fight with whatever they got. However, It just seems that alot of these weapons are going to misfire/jam/or fail during combat. The one's who are good are the ones who have weapons from the government stash houses, as those weapons are mint. But most of that shit is questionable. Still, a very respectable effort in arming themselves. I give them an A- for effort, B for execution, and B- for innovation. lol
