Dont worry, in 10 years it will look like an ink splot. I wish i chose better on my first tat many many many years ago, it was so detailed and now it is faded bad.

I don't remember getting my first one. It was my last one. It's about as horrible as you can imagine.

Well at least I didn't throw it on my forehead. I suppose I can get it touched up as needed. Or just keep it covered constantly. I'll just enjoy it while I can I guess haha

No offense, but you should've picked a better artist.

Sorry man I actually feel bad now, if you like it then spot on mate, you wear that with pride. It's all about personal expression and taste.

I'm being a tatto snob because my Mrs has spent well over £20k on a full back/bum peice going down to a full leg sleeve. She's had some of the world's best working on her and won many tatto conventions around Europe for best female etc.

Top tip though if you want any more check out tattoos on Instagram, save up and do your homework.

Just make sure the gun wasn’t hid in the artist’s prison pocket.

Damn. We got some sticklers here haha. I'm happy with it, it was a fairly cheap tat. Guy also sold me a Mosin Nagant with it, I love CR's and started giving less shits once I hit 18. I wanted it to be simple and just something I thought was cool, didn't really plan on getting it to show off much. I figured I'd see some moto community opinions on it, and I think I get the point.... But nah. If this ends up being the dumbest thing I've done with my life I can't really complain haha

I was stationed in England in the '70's. Went to London 3 o r 4 times with the intent to get tatted. Always stopped at a pub or two before going to the parlor. They always refused me. Come back sober and we'll give you whatever you want. I was never sober so I'm still tat free at 61. Thank you Jesus.

I was stone sober for this one. Probably makes it look even worse now Laughing

At least tell me the idea was cool Laughing the old CR manuals stock photo, kinda sealed the deal on the idea once I picked up my 02 125. Besides, we're all gonna die from coronavirus pretty soon here so who gives a shit right?

I've always shied away from tattoos. The only one I decided I would get is a cat face on my big toe because I have hairy toes and it would look like 4d whiskers coming out.

Wait, the tattoo artist made it a combo deal with a mosin?? How much did you pay for this? At least get the bayonet? Ammo?

Yup haha, about $250 for an M91/30 all matching serial numbers, good shape for being an original 1938. Has the hammer and sickle stamped on the bolt, bayonet included. Got about 400 rounds of some unmarked box russian surplus ammo. Looks like the standard copper washed spam can rounds you can score, but never seen them in the unmarked 20 round cardboard boxes. (Makes me think it may be early Soviet rounds). All in all a pretty sweet deal to me. Smile

Dude, my first tattoo was from a Guns N’ Roses album cover (the Axl Rose skull) so trust me, dumber decisions have been made. I was in the Navy out on liberty call with some shipmates on the night of my 19th birthday and it seemed like a good idea at the moment. It’s all good.... lol.

Told this before. When my son was 17 he announced that at 18 he was going to get that Aztec Sun from a Henry Rollins album on his shoulder. I told him that if I'd done that at his age I would have Srawberry Alarm Clock across my chest. He said "who?" My point exactly.

Well the tattoo is mediocre but the deal was good. Beat mosins are going for 250 these days, and that surplus ammo ain't nearly as cheap as it use to be.

Here's an idea, get the T shirt. That way when you change your mind you can take the fuckin thing off and get a different one.

Is someone doing AI testing to see if they can imperceptibly slip in to message boards?
