PGW LRT-3 'Shorty' 50BMG Official Thread (VIDEO UP)

[CanuckWR]

have you guys run any numbers on the chrony with it? i would LOVE to see how a CQB 50 would do for velocity. This may end up providing some now opportunities.

I always wondered how much of these craze SASR' price was just brand markup, you know how Bentley motors add a cool $80,000 to the price of their cars because of the Bentley name or elitism, curious what these guns cost the manufacturer to research and make. The profit margin has to be at least 50-80% of the parts and build cost

Thanks for the detailed cost analysis...I will have our accountant immediately redo our books to reflect your well thought out and highly accurate figures.

Have you perused Hubel 458's thread lately? He is currently working on a 2 bore falling block!

I'm surprised the shorty weighs that much. I weighed my 28.5" barreled
LRT-3 with scope and empty mag and it weighed 29.5lbs.

Yes the Shorty still remains on the hefty side, the amount of barrel that was chopped off + our muzzle brake is almost equal to that of the Armalite brakes in weight... Which is around the 3 1/4 - 3 1/2 pound mark...

Thread revival, has anyone chronied a shorty yet? would love to know the velocity difference between a 16.75, 24" and 29" barrel
