I want one.
But a 20mm just isn't practical, like a .50 BMG is. Checked one of these out at the SHOT show. Painted different, a light desert camo. 6'8" long, 110 pounds. They are willing to let me try it. Aso, this weapon can be ordered with a can. Rifle and can, under 16K.

I'm so upset about michigan's stance on class III firearms. I'm all but positive all class III private ownership is banned. I'm really comtemplating moving just to have the posibility that I could someday have one.

Nice how much for the ammo?


short and fat and hard to get at, hit like a hammer and never been hit back.

$5-$7 a round. I would reload it, so figure 50%-60% of that, once you had the brass. I hear the primers are very hard to get, so some bush the primer pocket down to accept a .50 BMG primer.

How is the recoil on it?Looks a bit like the old PTRD.

Let us know if you do shoot it. That looks like quite the hammer!

I saw the above gun At the OCT knob creek shoot. Talked to the guy in the picture for a while and told him I was building a 50bmg that looked a bit like what he had done. That picture does the rifle no justice..It is a beast up close and personal. CH has dies but they are about the same price as a nice set of tires


Yes you can shoot it...No you can't have it...Yes I will hunt you down if it turns up missing
