    So I just got an interesting IM on another forum. An on set armorer is in Baton Rouge filming an action movie and is in need of a full auto M16/AK. He explained that this is a last minute decision by the director and would like to find someone locally to loan their lower to be mated with a blank firing upper.

    He said the gig would require the owner to stay on set while its in use (of course) and it will pay somewhere around $20 an hour. Hes looking at around four days of use total including Wednesday and Thursday of this coming week and two days probably the following week. So if any of you guys want to get your toys working for you, or know of anybody else that would be interest let me know.

    Here is his bio on IMDB. I'm not sure of the liability personally, but I'm sure if anybody wants to do it they could work it out. Seems he has done a few jobs, but not many. The pay was something mentioned in passing and was just for the persons time to sit there. There would probably also be separate pay for use of the lower.

    what movie is it they are working on, and which actors? I would think that it would be kinda cool to hang out on a movie set if there were some big names there.

    A lot of big name's are assholes...take Val Kilmer for instance.

    Annalynne McCord was an absolute pleasure though. So was Vince Jones.
