    Gun of the week

    Hi all,

    From time to time we have rifles that are a little bit out of the ordinary coming through our workshop.
    We have started this thread to showcase these particular rifles.

    Looks similar to my cut down Savage 99 308 with one of your suppressors on it. The lever platform with a nice short barrel and decent can is fantastic in the bush!

    Dont waste your time chasing every last fps, it doesnt matter in the real world, it wont make a difference, all it will do is cause head aches and frustrations. And dont listen to silly old cunts

    I certainly like the 45 more than the -08 at the top, Just a matter of what floats ya I suppose.
