I once took a baseball-slide-for-home-base epic with my old Beretta on my thigh. Suffice to say that it looked like a shit demon aimed its projectile shit at it as the TWAT field can get really mucky at times. Thankfully it was raining so it got clean eventually. Thankfully I decided to spray it with silicone oil to prevent it from rusting.

I buy most of my stuff used so that first scratch was already there. :D

But theres just something so satisfying about taking its blemish virginity :D

We paint all our guns.

Get an AK the more scratches the better!

My Five-Seven spent over 20mins submerged in FTF swamp lol. Thank god for silicone spray.lol

I did that with my car when I bought it new 10 years ago. still has the first ding I got on the rear deck lid. lol

as for the guns, I remember the first scratch I put in a brand new JP rifles handguard set. kinda pissed me off when I first noticed it. now all new scratches are like, whatever. lol
