Are Boneyard Airsoft Builds Bull***t?

Boneyard sales on retailers websites are normally a joke - why wouldn't you want a totally fucked Specna M249 for £30 off of the retail value?
But it's possible to make something wicked for very little if you try hard enough - just don't pay a tech to do it.... there's a reason the shop didn't want to work on it...

These are the most Khyber Pass looking AKs and I am all about em. Awesome work as usual!

[@jacobchalkley5071]

Thanks again for doing such an amazing job on my AK74, it has turned out so amazing and looks so much better than I could have expected and the drum is awesome 😁

[@maverickentity9341]

Reminds me of the time I tried to mate a dboys steel akms front end to an older pot metal dboys aks-74 receiver in a poor attempt to make a "Khyber Pass" kalash. Did not end well for me but it was a lesson. Do not really have enough bits of anything to build the dream abominations I have (The Khyber Pass Special, an ak105 with a solid stock for either wood or plum furniture, either another carbine or full length kalash with rpk buttstock) and like you stated repeatedly throughout the vid, it would cost far too much to do so. Not many shops sell ak externals without making one have to buy every single bit individually. Most often it is just pot metal parts or only tm style (which admittedly makes TM style probably the easier path for builds). LCT have teased builds before for their whole "modular" campaign before, and respond with "contact your dealer" when told "can you make receivers and complete barrel assemblies available?" knowing that no shop is going to carry them all and at best for the latter will just have the outer barrel sans gas tube assembly, rear sight block, etc. At the point where I rather just have externals to throw my shit v3 gearbox builds into rather than paying out the nose for whatever "new" model that comes along. Problem is the externals end up costing near the price of a cyma at some points (though even now cymas feel like they are going the lct route of price increase). Sorry for the rant, been one of those weeks.

I love when you do powder burn effect, I am endlessly fascinated with my AKS74U flash hider after you did that.

Love it. Wish I’d got into Airsoft younger. Would love a collection of parts. 👍. Could watch you show your guns for ages.

I'm a little envious, I wish I'd asked if they had any beaters they didn't mind parting with, it would've made an alright display piece with some spares and TLC.

[@MFU.team.4367]

The long ak was my favorite! I want one haha. The reason boneyard shit is so fun is because if you are creative, it gives you an excuse to make dumb shit for fun while not destroying something that works.

[@edhartill7969]

the noise of the valmet from commando has to be my top movie gun noise of all time.

[@setsuna200]

Boneyard guns are good if you want a project gun. But if you don't or can't make the time for it, then it's a waste of money. I have done 1 boneyard m4 pre-owned dirt cheap. They were honest and told me the gearbox was not functional. I got a replacement gearbox and got it working again. It's externally a g&p. Internally, it has a g&g gearbox now. No modifications were needed to fix it in the G&P body. But the only original parts from the boneyard gun are the original outer barrel and handguard. But this project took over 4 years to make it the way I wanted it externally . But since I started with a base, that was how I wanted to be it made it easy to swap with better quality externals because I started it with a boneyard gun which had it a way I wanted it to look like. I am over the moon with it, and it is my favorite AEG I own. But will I do it again? That's a maybe if I find another that convinces me to do it, but at this time, right now, I won't be.

Man, I've wanted an SVD (Or similar styled DMR) since 2001. Eventually got a WE Acevd and whilst it was lovely to shoot in terms of feedback and tactility, it didn't actually shoot very well...... Still searching. (That RPK/Valmet/Magpull thing is AWESOME).

[@TheClone37]

The CYMA and Echo1 draguns are pretty good. Ive used both.

[@MercutioUK2006]

@@TheClone37 Is (as I've heard) the Cyma a copy of the RS? It does seem to be a good platform, and most importantly if it is a copy, then it retains the wonderful RS hop unit which really is at the heart of the performance. Cheers :)

[@NegativeAirsoftTech]

Nah, too much for a hop unit that needs a new nozzle.... I made TDC kits for a tenner. Problem solved. Thank you for the offer though!

[@ArchieKeen1]

It’s probably going to be summed up as, depends on the gun, how far it’s gone, and is it actually worth fixing it, if it’s a non standard like a ppsh for instance is it possible to find proprietary parts, Or I’m most likely completely wrong XD

[@maggotpraiswater]

[@StorMRagE4EVA]

First answer, not go me because if they're mostly there or if it's loads of different broken guns for like $40-50 each gun I'm happy because I can turn around and make $400-500 because each gun will be about $150-200 per if they're good brands or work well at little cost

[@jediknight1294]

Problem is nobody sells boneyard like that anymore when. You account for 3 hours work and parts on a 300 quid boneyard gun tht retails for 450 new it's not worth it

[@StorMRagE4EVA]

@@jediknight1294 I also put parts that make the gun more worth it in the long run

[@jediknight1294]

@@StorMRagE4EVA downside is its not easy to justify that to people. Selli g custom builds you barely get cost of parts back never mind covering your time. Iv done a few to keep my hand in and clear out parts boxes but if I had to actually pay myself for the time you couldn't do it

I remember seeing patrol base selling an A&K M249 para heavyweight with a whole load of wear and tear, a wobbly stock, I think the charging handle was buggered?? And the hop rubber, or something to do with the hop was trashed. I think that was about £350-£370, while the brand new one was about £450.

[@arch_2076]

There was/is an AK on Patrol Base’s boneyard because the stock has been sheared off somehow (stocks metal so no clue how that happened)

[@alexinc.1128]

@@arch_2076 there's an M12 smg on one site that is brand new and yet the metal stock has been sheared off entirely, I wanna know how on earth that happened - I jokingly mentioned it to the owner of an airsoft shop near me and he said passively 'it might have been dropped'...how poorly made could it possibly be?

[@darkshock42mlg05]

Well the only reason I can see for buying a Boneyard gun is if you wanted chasis for your p* or whatever. As long as the gearbox shell and externals are mostly intact you could probably make it work. I even saw an aks74u where it was fullybfunctional as a boneyard gun but the hinge for the dust cover broke and the guy i was watching prefered it that way like every other ak.

[@ivansucic9149]

Talk about custom AKs man your builds looks awsome i love commando inspired rpk👍

[@Matias-dr3ys]

that first AK looks really cool.

[@whale259]

I’ve watched approximately 18 seconds of the video so far… but from my experience it’s genuinely a mixed bag of fuckery!! I’ve gotten an APS boneyard gun that was $20 and was so far gone using it as a paperweight wasn’t even within question because of the amount of dirt, dust, bark, grass, grease and other shit that would continuously leak out of it like some sort of radioactive sludge, but I’ve also gotten an ares amoeba CCR ( the little chodely one) with a retro arms gearbox shell for $90…. Retro shell, $120… amoeba body….. $-30.. yeah I guess I payed about what that was worth but you get the point! no regrets there!!! If you’re bored they’re fantastic, but absolutely don’t plan on making a boneyard your primary rifle unless you enjoy heartbreak and swearing at a toy
