Welcome everyone to the 198th edition of ‘Hot Gat or Fudd Crap?’, one of our many series here on TFB. If you’re new to the series, this is where we look at the most obscure firearms that are actually for sale and ask the question – is this Gat a sweet deal or only have Fudd appeal?  Each week the TFB staff weighs in with their thoughts, but readers get the final say in the poll at the bottom of each article.

In our last edition, our poll showed that you, the readers, decided the custom camo AR-10 was just fudd crap.

At this time the original auction has ended with no bids placed.  However, it has been relisted with the same starting bid of $3,000.  We can only hope this camo-clad AR-10 will make its way to a new home in the near future.      

In this week’s edition of HGFC, we look at a golden engraved Draco chambered in 7.62×39. As is tradition, this golden gat is currently up for sale on GunBroker for $6,900 Buy It Now.

HOT GAT or FUDD CRAP? Golden Draco or Just Say No?

I’ll never understand the fascination with gold-plated AK pattern rifles.  At the same time, if I had to pick a gun to gold plate, I guess it’d probably be an AK.  I guess I’ve watched Lord of War a couple too many times.

The engraving and choice of firearm is what’s concerning to me.  Years back, I turned a 12.5in Draco into an SBR side folder, but I’ve never seen the point in these super short pistols.  I guess if you want a really flashy engraved portable flashbang, well then this is the gun for you, but I’m certainly not in the market.

What do you think?  Does all this gold and custom engraving make this gun worth $6,900 or would you rather just keep that kind of money in the bank?  As always, I leave it up to you, the readers, to decide.
