LEGO’s Got A Fully Operational AK-47
Last week, we saw the LEGO Lee Enfield sniper rifle. Now LEGO Technics and Jack Streat are at it again, developing weaponry with the classic toy building material that can actually shoot projectiles. This time, they’ve created a fully-functioning AK-47 gun as a follow-up to their sniper rifle.
Mr. Streat took two weeks making this weapon and clearly, his work has paid off. This LEGO version of the AK-47 comes with two removable magazines containing twelve bricks each, a basic red and black color scheme and a bolt-action mechanism for firing “brick” projectile rounds. This LEGO gun seems to be capable of firing two to three rounds in one single shot while last week’s sniper rifle only shot single rounds.
Obviously, this LEGO AK-47 is another achievement made possible through the human imagination and brilliant engineering. So, that leaves me to wonder what’s next for LEGO Technics and Jack Streat. Will it be more styles of firearms, other types of hand-held ordnance or nuclear and mechanical weapons of mass destruction? Remember, dear readers, that with LEGO, the possibilities are endless.
