I'm looking at adding another barrel ( probably 308 ) which I will shorten down to 18 -19 inch's and use with open sights for close range pig shooting .
That and a 223 will cover all the rifle shooting I will ever do .

My first gun! 10/22 with carbon full barrel silencer, Boyds SS Evolution stock, Redfield 2-7x scope, Volquartsen trigger kit and exact edge extractor.

If you want to be fickle its more of a carbine with a barrel that length. Nice gun by the way!Quote:

She finally showed up on Thursday, my Barrett M107A1 :cool:
I got her assembled & got chamber lengths for various projectiles, & sorted starting loads.

She has shot some pretty good groups so far & some not so good ones....
She has expensive tastes & really doesn't like the cheap ADI FMJs, bloody typical....
http://i1004.photobucket.com/albums/...ps7ac4737c.jpg
The trigger is fairly "interesting" & moves at least 12-13mm before anything exciting starts to happen, hopefully that can be sorted as it makes her very hard to shoot accurately.
I have fired 115 rounds through her so far, recoil isn't too bad, more of a massive push & concussion is non-existent :cool:
I built a dummy mag so I could single feed her.

I tried a pistol grip off one of my XLR chassis to try to help with trigger control, but I will probably put the factory one back on.

All in all I'm very happy with her & it looks like she wants to shoot so I just have to get that sorted, good times :)
That is fucking awesome.
Awesome. How'd you get your hands on that? I haven't seen any for sale in nz.
An Importer offered to get it in for me, I said no you can't, he said yes I can, I said Bugger how much.....Quote:

Cool gat though.
Well done VCQuote:

That thing is rad! Might not be as good as some of your other rifles on paper but I bet it puts a bigger smile on your face each time you squeeze the trigger.
I dislike you KG.
If you kill something with it...please post up a pic.

Fixed it for you KJ ;)Quote:

Yo-ho mateys, my new pirate gun… garrr..
Just procured this little beauty from another member here for a very reasonable price. Needs a bit of TLC and a main spring so a fun project.

I know minimal about flintlocks so have lots of research to do.
Do you need a pistol endorsment for that?
Yuup, unfortunately.
And an eye patch??Quote:

I'll probably need 2 eye patches when I set my eyebrows on fire after I fire it for the first time. :DQuote:
