Yea, I (technically) share a scene on the big screen with #TimRoth in the movie '600 Miles'....
And yeah I watched it today for the first time in the theater, sitting next to a guy who spoke a line of dialog in the movie....But the coolest part, was I got #Paid ($$$) to have a dozen+ of my AKs (& other guns) as props in the movie !!!
