holy sweet mother of enzo. i dont know if i should laugh scream or cry?

 

[2bad4u2]

It's sort of homely...in a Stevens 200 kinda way.

 

[Obtunded]

It has all the components to make it a great shooter! Border barrels are incredible. Quite the international approach to a gun...

British Barrel
New Zealand Action
Canadian Stock

Obviously for the well-heeled!

 

[Graeco]

For some reason, I feel like ice cream.

 

[BigUglyMan]

Looks like it would do the trick. Hunchak just doesn't like it because he's too old to lift it!

hey Norm Ian needs some one to work a load for customer, I tell him you could handle it, you might be wishing you where shooting my mouse-gun

Great components assembled by someone who knows what he is doing.

I have had the pleasure of shooting a few Barnard/Robertson assembled boomers and they shot very well.

With that mass and honking big break, recoil shouldn't be punishing. I bet there are a bunch of hunting rifles that kick more.

None will be as loud

Enjoy.

PS love the colour.

The 50 I played with is/was one of the easiest rifles to find a pet load for that I have owned...

Hmmmm it for lefties. I guess i will pass on that one

THIS is a rifle:

I'm actually in the process of designing an oil-jacketed barrel (ala Vickers) for an F-CLass build. Not quite as ostentatious as this, but definitely...interesting.

 

[juanvaldez]

Great looking gun...

 

[reomack]

Is it really left handed or has the photo been reversed?

That's not a rifle, because a rifle requires a shooter and that employs an operator. I'm sure we can learn a lot from devices like that, but fortunately we have rules and classes that keep such projectile delivery systems in laboratories and special classes, and out of the field of competition against shooters.

(it is a genuine question)
