Yep, Wack-Sog, that is to say, the Wile E. Coyote School of Gunsmithing, appear in this video by Ian.

Oh, and, I can't actually find that comment, Gryph. There's nearly 10k of them, so...

Hm. You'd think YT would keep mine near the top, I mean, I am the main character.

Anyway, what I said was,

Years ago, I took an introductory machine tool class as a mechanical engineering tech major at a flagship state university. We broke up into teams and built little single-cylinder pneumatic reciprocating engines from drawings provided as part of the course materials. We weren't in training to be machinists; the purpose of the course was to give us a practical understanding of what the machinists who would have to build the stuff we eventually engineered would be up against. Most of us had never seen a machine tool in person before the start of the course.

We did way better work than that.

I think my favourite bit is how he describes the barrel. "It's been turned down on a machine this far, but then it's been turned down with some sort of, like, angry beaver grinding tool out for the last two inches."

I haven't had a chance to watch the video yet, and I'm not familiar with the gentleman who made it, but YouTube's algorithm wanted me to know that another GunTuber has repaired the WECSOG Krinkov.

Indeed, I was also informed. Rather insistently, in fact. I have little to no interest in that particular video, other than as a "huh" thing in passing, but Youtube decided that I urgently had to know, over the course of a couple of days.
