That gun....it looks like paint. I guess as soon as you fired it, it would bake off. If it was real gold, wouldn't it melt?

The gold plated Krinkoff is a presentation piece taken from one of the Hussein palaces in Iraq, right? If so, can someone please cover the soliders face?

right, the shorter barrel and the underfolder threw me for a second. I missed the gas system and I thought it was a Krink.

A Krinkoff is still a Kalishnikov (pic obviously edited. This is a civilian version of a Krinkoff, built by Mark Krebs)

B52 final picture

Apparently the B52 only flew a couple of times. Here is its final picture. There is also a video on the website.

It is kind of sad to see that much work and effort go up in flames. I wonder if you can insure that kind of thing?

I read where the plane cost an estimated L30,000. It had 8 jet engines along with dozens of servos, backup battery packs and redundant recievers.

No one really knows why it crashed. It looks like the pilot made a nice turn and then lost control on the second turn. He had some sponsors which helped defray the costs.
