However, I doubt the response is off the mark. As to would someone build a picatinny system for a AK? Hell yes, sellers are looking for buyers and there are buyers for that sort of thing in the wanna be tactical type population. Now that I think about it, the Russian impersonator was writing about that sort of person. American military hardware = sports car Russian military hardware = tractor Both get it done in their unique way.

Say, this MEP-006A generator, is really more like a "tractor" than a "sports car". VERY well and honestly made machine. Relatively easy to service and relatively fool proof. Very sturdy. Also understandable. I realize that it is 1970's designs and things may have moved on from there. i |

Also understandable. I realize that it is 1970's designs and things may have moved on from there. i I suspect that first of all it is in the very detailed manufacturing specifications (right down to the specification for nuts and bolts) and secondly because the military has an ongoing program of redesigning something if it breaks more then once. Have a look at Aircraft "Technical Orders" which are after manufacture changes to correct even very minor problems. |

That way, the same item could be shipped anywhere and be usable. -- You can't fix stupid. You can't even put a band-aid on it, because it's Teflon coated. |

I have one and I would not put it on the gun. Not to mention that the Russian "accent" of the writing isn't quite accurate. Native Russian speakers have a distinctive way of using definite articles for "stuff" where English demands the use of none at all (the Russian-accented "you are full of the crap" vs. the grammatically correct -- if not proper -- "you are full of crap"). I can't put my finger on exactly how, but somehow they aren't capturing that idiosyncrasy, and others, of Russian-flavored English. -- Tim Wescott Wescott Design Services http://www.wescottdesign.com Do you need to implement control loops in software?
