Quest text from Mechanic
I have two neural networks, one scans the faces on the cameras and compares them with the database, and the other one monitors cryptocurrency trading and reacts to it. Today I’ve decided to create one more, which will monitor the temperature, humidity, pressure, and other parameters of my hideout, and among other things — respond to my mood. Let's see how it turns out when I’m done.
There is an order for AKS-74N with Zenit parts. Ergonomics should be over 65, recoil sum less than 275, and the gun should be taking up no more than 10 slots.
Now for the most important part — the kit itself. We need a B-30 handguard, RK-0 foregrip, B-33 dust cover, RK-3 pistol grip, PT-3 stock, Klesch-2IKS illuminator, DTK-1 brake, and the newer AK-12 magazine, basically Zenit all around. Perhaps this is a gift for a former Saint Petersburg resident.
