Um. What the hell do you do for work?????? You rich bastard! [laugh][wink]

Just kidding. Very nice builds. I'm hoping to try that 50AE if it comes to the next shoot. [smile]

Oh, and it's gonna....[smile]

It feels like a pump 12 ga, and imparts a freakish amount of energy into whatever it hits. I've yet to shoot it since I had the Tromix Shark brake installed.

You're gonna hear that that thing go off for miles around...[wink]
 
Forget the rifles. I want the Python.

Nice rifles, BTW. But nothing makes me drool like a fine revolver.
 
Hi I just joined and need a little help I am a gunsmith and have a customer that lost his bolt and I get to make him the replacement I see you have a ar-15 with the 50 ae conversion I was wondering if you could do me a favor and take some pictures of the bolt for me this would help on the project thanks
 
I hope to see (and try) the .50AE at the Mansfield shoot! That is a very nice collection of AR's, but, no .308's?
