MP3 Player In An AK-47 Magazine

Posted by timothy on from the have-fun-going-through-security dept.

Comrade Pikachu writes "These guys have apparently fit a hard drive based MP3 player into a Kalashnikov ammunition clip. They are accepting pre-orders now. It fits into a standard AK-47 and comes pre-loaded with over 200 audio books. Listen to Poe on your assault rifle!" Audiobooksforfree also is one of the few places I've found online with free (low-fi) audiobooks -- for greater fidelity, you can buy files or pre-loaded hard drives, or (at long last) this unorthodox player.

    Actually you can ship pretty much anything except the lower reciever to a gun without any sort of permit. For example, I can ship an entire M16 through the mail, no questions asked -- though it can't have the lower reciever (and thus is not a functioning weapon.) To ship a lower reciever you have to do it through someone with a license (normally a gun shop.)

    Here in Texas, you can walk down the street with a loaded automatic rifle and so long as you legally own the gun, nobody can do anything about it. Though if you point it at someone, that's considered a threatening action and is illegal. Oh, and it's legal to shoot a robber in the back as he flees from your house. So don't rob my place if you don't wanna get shot. ;)
