Like Jim, who emailed me these photos, it makes me want to cry to see these magazines abused in this way. I would pay top dollar to buy them by the ton!
See more of these photos at English Russia.
Thanks to Jim for sending me the link.

I would think those magazines suck for traction.
Those are upsetting photos. I hate seeing abused equipment, especially firearms related.

I’m guessing these were defective or heavily used. The garden path would have cost a few hundred easily. The road would cost thousands. However, it is an interesting idea.
thats some funny stuff right there but hey it works
You don’t fuck with the country that fills potholes with magazines.
