This thread will be a work in progress but thought it'd be fun for everyone to have just a taste of what life is like on the other side of the tracks.
As many of you know I am a man that lives amongst the upper echelon of society. I've got to admit it's difficult being in that 1% that everyone envies. I'm not trying to make anyone feel less than adequate, but my lifestyle affords me some things that many may consider excessive, extravagant, or recklessly wasteful. An example of this would be my classic fiero sports car...it only has two seats. It's probably not a car that you 9 to 5-ers would have any use for as you can't get groceries with it or live out of it, but it wasn't made for simple folks. A fiero encompasses all that is VitaminK, extravagant and bad ass. The point of owning one is that owning one is pointless. Side note: the highest speed limit in indy is 65...the fiero does 85! I know, right?!
Pardon my digression. I've recently come into some MORE money after my new book hit the shelves (reserve your copy today)
I had a book signing the other day, but oddly no one showed up... I say oddly because I'm told every state has a VitaminK fan club. They say everyone who has bought my book has to register in their state. Kind of flattering, but it's something i'm used to.
Back on topic...So I take a long hard look at my couch-bed that i had imported from the orient (also called a "fu-ton" which means bad-ass) and felt sad as if something was missing. As i've said before, "SADNESS IS FOR POOR PEOPLE!" and i set out for a solution. I noticed that all my guns, magazines, sheets, and guitars are lifeless and monochromatic. I then went to Corey from SSNFA who showed me his no-longer-monochromatic-rifle.
Seen here:
I hate to be outdone so i called and made an appointment with BATTLECOAT. The owner, recognizing immediately that he was talking to "the" Vitamin-K told me to come in at my earliest convenience (which is the only way i do it). I brought with me a box of parts. A saiga iz132, a TWS hinged top cover, 2 UsPalm FDE mags, a UsPalm FDE battle grip, a primary arms red dot, an ace folding skeleton stock, a polytac light in a thorntail mount, a YHM qd flash hider (yes for a can), and various sundries. We then went through his entire collection of camo films which took forever. I don't think there was a pattern he didn't have. It was a toss up between Atacs and Atacs Fg
Atacs
Atacs FG
I decided on regular Atacs as i'm not trying to look like Princess Leia.
My initial observations of BATTLECOAT is that they are a top notch facility. I've seen the videos on the internet of home dip kits and this certainly is not that. He showed me that each piece takes several days to make perfect. The work area looked similar to a Dr's office only with gun parts in various states of completion organized and labeled everywhere. I'm confident that my gun will come out looking way better than corey's as i am more attractive and am willing to spend more money.
Pictures will be forthcoming. Stay tuned. If you need something to occupy your time, buy my book.
