An AK has about 70 parts, an AR about 120.

Back in the early 1990's as part of my job in a theatre as an armourer, I used to hire from BAPTY &Co. One day, wandering the warehouse, I came across crate loads of cool Star Wars guns!! Many were rubber moulded copies but there were several full metal versions converted from the original weapons. When I got to the office, to fill in the paperwork for a truck load of Martini Henri rifles I was hiring, they took out a 'blaster' and handed it to me, telling me it was the actual one used by Harrison Ford! I have no idea if there were several of these, or it was indeed the only one, but it was seriously cool to hold it!! They had a couple of those BSA type converted blasters too, which I also saw, but didn't get to play with. What an amazing place it was to visit back then. Times have very much changed now and I'm not sure you can just phone up with an order and rock up with a van anymore!! 😉

I like how Ian started with a gun that perfectly fit the criteria, and then branched out for humor at the end, where Jonathan took the reverse path. Well done, gentlemen, I was smiling non-stop for the whole video!
