My Jukebox

This song reminds me of my High School days during the 90's

Artist: Popsicle
Title: Histrionics



Lyrics

When I knew you, I used to think you were
constant standing high above my ground.
When you laughed at me, I wasn't ready
for even reach forever further down.

Don't look at me that way just close your eyes,
be the one I'm seeing I can't make it on my own,
I'm not alone and if you go away you-ho.

Leave me lucky leave me lane,
this time will always stay the same
I'm still a fool above your flame.
Leave me lucky leave me,
Leave me lucky leave me lane.

When I call you, it's not a way to start
remembering november as before.
When I see you, I'm not supposed to get
personal persistent or adoring

Don't look at me that way just close your eyes,
be the one I'm seeing I can't make it on my own,
I'm not alone and if you go away you-ho.

Leave me lucky leave me lane,
this time will always stay the same
I'm still a fool above your flame.
Leave me lucky leave me,
Leave me lucky leave me la la la la la la la la la,
la la la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la la la.

Don't look at me that way just close your eyes,
be the one I'm seeing I can't make it on my own,
I'm not alone and if you go away you-ho.

Leave me lucky leave me lane,
this time will always stay the same
I'm still a fool above your flame.
Leave me lucky leave me,
Leave me lucky leave me lane.

Cyma AKM Review

Upon receiving my akm through my favourite gunrunner, i immediately opened the box and held the gun. The gun is all metal except for the handguard and stock. It is solidly built with no creaks on the body. I immediately did some tests outside and here are my findings:

- very good accuracy and range ( might be a 6.04 barrel like my cyma soc16 )
- chronoed the gun and it read 460 fps on the chrono
- average rate of fire using the stock battery
- no missfeeds

I opened the gun for re greasing and re shimming. Stock shimming was mediocre. It already had metal bushings installed and didn't bother to replace the stock bushings because it was of good quality. I kept the stock spring and installed N/W spring guide with bearings. I installed a deepfire aluminum cylinder head and it had excellent compression. By the way, just like the cyma 035, it uses version 2 cylinder head. I was also surprised that it had a strong motor ( my soc16's motor was poor ).

Pros:
- all metal ( although boyi ak47's would have a better external finish )
- strong OOTB performance
- pretty good wood like finish on the handguard and stock
- very strong motor
- good wiring
- metal bushings already ootb
- excellent accuracy
- its and ak47
- very good internals

Cons:
- bakelite finish on the magazine isn't good
- plastic spring guide ( why ?!? )
- some say it has a crappy hopup rubber
