Not altogether sure what to make of this. We do know that for $2200 were not going to be buying it. But this AK, for sale on GunBroker right now, can’t really be called the work of Bubba: It’s far too well done. But it’s what was done that raises our eyebrows… this AK is a little idiosyncratic, shall we say, in its style and features.

See what we mean?

Here’s what the auction says about it:

Up for auction, is a (RCCA)Roll Call Custom Armory Exclusive! A Fully Modified & Customized AK-47 Romanian Par-1 Pump Action AK47!

That’s right, High Capacity AK-47 Pump Action Rifle that has had a “Complete Make-Over”, both inside and out!

This baby is most likely a legal hunting rifle in just about every state. Check your state laws to be sure !!

This AK-47 Pump is like nothing that you have ever seen!

Yeah, he’s definitely got us there. The nearest thing we can think of is Marvin the Martian’s Disintegrator-ator-ator-ray.

But let’s let him describe what’s been done to this firearm.

Let me just mention a few of the Highlighted Features.

True Polish Under-Folder stock with a Billet Aluminum Adjustable Cheek Rest. A Red Star Arms Adjustable Trigger. A CSS Round Sloted Forarm Rail. A Texas Weapons System Picatinny Rail with Peep Sight. A Krebs Extended Safety Lever. A Billet Aluminum Extended (Pump) Charging Handle by MGM Mfg.. A Stainless Steel Ported Shroud Muzzle Flash Suppressor. A Fiber Optic Front Sight. A (Night Vision Compatible) Vortex Strike Fire Red Dot Optic with a See-Through Cantilever Mount. The entire Rifle has been done in Armor Black & Stainless Steel Cera-Koted Finish.

OK, we weren’t going to interrupt his sales spiel, but does this guy sound like Ron Popeil, or what?

WAIT! There’s More! It also comes with…

Yep. Ron Popeil. What does this Ronco AK-47 slicer and dicer come with, if we ACT NOW?

…a Two-Tone UPG/RWC Ergonomic Finger Grooved Pistol Grip, a Single Point Sling Swivel, a Non-Slip Pump-Slide Grip Cover, a Bolt Open Lock Safety Lever, and a U.S. Palm 30rnd. Magazine.

Again, it has us at a loss for classification. When you consider the amount of smithing that’s in this gun, and the individual cost of the many third-party parts, and factor in the CeraKote finish (one of the costlier options for a spray-on bake-on finish), the dealer/builder is probably not making a lot of money on it.

There was a lot of time put into this. Now, we have the archaic and suspect idea that a gunsmith, even one more of the parts-assembler/armorer/finisher variety, is worth at least as much as you pay the schmo who changes your oil at the Lexus dealer. It’s not what we would do with an AK, but it gives every appearance of being well done.

We suppose the pump action would appeal to people in ban states, where a semi-auto with a detachable magazine causes paroxysms of pearl-clutching on the part of newspaper editors, and dog-shooting (for starters) on the part of police.

But still, all this on a Romanian AK? This reminds us of an old saying about some things you can’t polish.

Maybe if you Cerakote them first?

Anyway, for the right owner, maybe this is the perfect AK, and all our skepticism proves is that we’re not the right owners. The gun has a certain video-game or Hollywood appeal — you could see someone using it in the remake of Man from UNCLE. It would be quite a step up from the original THRUSH carbine as a bad-guy weapon!

If you’re the property master or armorer for the UNCLE flick, or otherwise interested in this unusual AK, there are more pictures on the auction page.
