    That poor gun! What did it do to him that was so bad, that he had to go and do such a cruel thing like that to the poor bloody thing?

    The rear grip looks like an Easter Island sculpture and the front grip looks like an elephant leg. I’m not going to open this thread again I find it too traumatic. Off to the “let’s talk about things thread”

It is though he bandaged it in a nappy and was surprised by the staining.

    Just imagine the outpouring of anger if he had done this to a Ruger, or a Anshultz, or a Marlin. Brandisim has no place when this sort of treatment is happening....
    The 'Karitane Gold' had not escaped my attention. Personally I'm more outraged that it is a JW-15 than a Ruger.

    A pistol club member with more money than talent decided to buy himself better scores by getting a Freedom Arms revolver.
    For those who are not familiar with the Freedom arms revolvers ( I had both .22LR and a .357 Mag F.A's) these are the Anshultz's of the centre-fire revolvers. Built strong, line bored 5 cylinder, very fine tolerances that can handle loads that would destroy lesser revolvers these things are beautiful.
    Well it didn't quite work out the way he was hoping and scores did not improve and when they came to go back on the market it was discovered he has filed down the front sights as he was apparently continually shooting too high!!

    Some people shouldn't be allowed fine firearms.

    That bottom one I would not really class as a Bubba. It appears t be a Mauser 98 barrelled action in which case that is a aftermarket stock. We have one of those in stock here. I agree they are not a pretty stock, but it will work The stock itself is pretty well made and fairly sturdy. I just dont like the idea of the scope being mounted to the stock, no matter how substantial the thing is secured to the action. On the upside it allows someone to fit a scope to the M98 without drilling and tapping an original action so while not original with the stock on, it can be undone.....

    Yeah what he said. I was going to comment on much the same matter but Tim's gone way more in depth than I was going to.
    tried to copy this one. A lot better than the bullpup lol
