domain AK47, please your thoughts?

[mitok]

Hello,

Could you please appraise this domain? I would like to hear other thoughts.

Domain was created 26 Sep 2006, but expired and dropped in Nov 2008.
All other popular extension of it are taken.
Google shows arround 14 millions results, and Estibot values its .com extension with $26k, and ak47.mobi with $320, but stats for "ak47" which Estibot shows is more interesting.
It shows Totalsearches 104340/month, Wordtracker 182/day, Totalcompetition 10/10ads

So, what do you think about value of AK47.MOBI please? Thank you

HI, I wonder why it was dropped. As far as I know guns are against googles TOS so it would be hard to monetize a name like this. Good luck.

Thank you for info, i didnt know that. But i like the name
Any other opinions please?

LOL, this domain is very hard to deal with unless you are selling gun-related products on your website or blog..

AK47= Andrei Kirilenko (Utah Jazz player)

I appraise it at mid XX although, because it's a mobi..... If it's ak47.com, it would be worth X,XXX

All I can think of is a mobile game called AK47.mobi

I guess it would be something like this:
http://www.gamesforwork.com/games/play-6705-Ak47_Target_Practice-Flash_Game

http://www.developer.com/java/j2me/article.php/3502741

http://209.85.229.132/search?q=cach...me"&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=4&gl=uk&client=firefox-a

Not much value undeveloped, IMHO.

Good luck!

It if was not a .mobi, I would say develop it into a minisite for people interested in AK47 history, etc. - but a .mobi... While I like the name too, I really wonder about the extension, when taking possible uses into consideration.

Unless, of course, you have just a very original idea, not the most obvious one - for instance someting which would be game-related (with AK47 playing a prominent rolee) and for use on a mobile? But this would require more efforts than a minisite.

In short: in itself, not attractive; but possible use if you develop an original idea and manage to market it.

There's a lot of rap songs utilizing ak47, most famous is nwa's: ak47 is the tool / don't make me out the moth*f***in fool

I love AK 47's, and love firing them in full automatic mode. Nothing like that shot of testosterone that comes from an AK in full auto... and remember that with any sub machine gun to use "short bursts of fire". Only noobs and people in the movies hold the trigger down for any length of time... oops... I forgot which forum I am on.

OK, I *Love* the keyword, but the tld sucks for this application IMHO. While I visit gun sites/forums almost every day, I have to be honest and say that I have never been to a gun site on my mobile phone. Just doesn't seem to fit, unless it was a game kind of thing as mentioned above. I would say low $xx, maybe a bit more to collectors (like me). I am thinking that the domain was dropped for a reason, and only a collector would like it.

I also noticed that the OP is from Croatia. Springfield XD rules!!!

oops. I just assumed you would be familiar with Springfield (made in Croatia, licensed distributors in USA):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Springfield_Armory_XD

I am an NRA member and the Springfield 45 was named handgun of the year in 2006. The XD series has a wide following, with a number of Glock owners making the switch to XD. The comments were meant as a compliment for an excellent Croatian product that has really caught the attention of gun owners.

yep... I collect just about everything, including guns, antiques, domain names, etc. I will probably pass on ak47.mobi, although I am tempted. The point I was making is that other collectors out there might find value, and that is where you should be looking.

 

[mitok]

Oh, i know now about what you are talking. But i thought that its name was Hrvatski samokres 2000 (HS 2000). The factory is in Ozalj, small place in Croatia, and i know that gun collect many awards

HI

LOL maybe it would be good to develop a website on it for when you need an AK47 you can go to the site and find the nearest shop that is hiring them out...

Value... Nothing..
