Here's my X-ray. No cast for it, but I do now have two 8 in titanium rods and some wire in there now. You think it sucks when you wack your "funny bone?" Now if I wack my left elbow there I pretty much have to stop whatever the fuck I'm doing for a few min due to the pain. :(
Oh, last month I left a pack of cheap cigars on the seat of my car, and left my windows down over night. A local Raccoon decided to flip my shit because they were Cherry flavored cheap cigars. He tore up my seat a little bit, opened up the pack of cigars, pulled one out, did not unwrap it. Pulled my coffee thermos out of my drivers side map pocket, pulled out a chamis from its container to look at it, found nothing that it really wanted, and then decided to fuck right off.
I also fucked up my car when I hit a huge one at around 100 mph one night while fucking around on some back roads near my parents house. Left a nice 20lb raccoon shaped dent in my plastic bumper and took out a fog light. :(
They're just Bulgarian take-offs... I've got fixed portion, too, but the rear is a folding Magpul Zhukov stock. It's somewhat of a mutt, but thanks to Obama its worth more than my AR, as its a converted Saiga 7.62. The rear sight is a Tech Sights peep. It has a special dust cover, and the rear sight portion replaces the rear part of the recoil spring guide which locks into the rear trunnion. Taking the cover off is a little more of a hassle, but not a big deal so long as you've got a bullet handy. I like the feel of the wood handguard, and also shoved the heat shield from a set of KVAR AKM handguards inside for a little better function, too. It does not have the proper AK-100 series FSB or gas block because I never tracked down the proper parts, because at the time I converted it it wasn't worth it in my opinion... It's sporting a bolt-on handguard retainer for the same reason, as you have to press off both the gas block and FSB in order to affix the proper AKM retainer.
I also kept the Saiga specific mechanical bolt hold open (its that curious metal tab right in front of the grip), because its handy. It's a straight pain in the dick to get back together if you ever pull the FCG out, though. The best method I've found to get it back together involves dental floss, haha.
