I was thinking a mini gun with a retractable roof

Sup gang! Pretty stoked on this and thought I should share, The other day I found out I was chosen for the next freedom wheelers build. they are a non profit organization for disabled veterans that take their current ride and re build it from the ground up. currently they are going do...

words spoken from a true pipehitter

with my job I am constantly telling my story infront of thousands of thousands of people on a monthly basis, at the end of every speech I get the posers wanting to shake my hand and begin to regale me with their stories of valor as a super secret CIA, state dept, contractor, SF, ranger, seal...

well the cats out of the bag and all this is going public since this thread is now making its rounds on facebook. just saw the FB posts today by a couple of other builders and companies

the things I always requested when I was deployed was Copenhagen, Marlboro's, cigars, real jerky, gum (lots of it) good headlamp, bright led flashlights (small ones) a slew of those cheap 5 dollar games like poker and such, go pro cameras, medaglia d'oro instant espresso, hot choc packets, smart...

due to just the ballistic coefficient alone, the 50 will never shoot as well as the groups you can get with the 338's especially the further out you go. not to mention the hit your wallet will take trying to make the fiddy shoot like a 338. its like putting a garbage truck in a wind tunnel.

most every manufacturer will make one or two units that are user serviceable. there is always a bunch of coffee shop talk about the pros and cons of each but there is probably another thread for that.

with ammo becoming harder and harder to get it is also becoming cheaper quality and more corrosive, typically your bore (at least) should be scrubbed and lubed and capped before setting it aside. The gas systems are usually hit the hardest and are alot easier to clean right after your last shot...

not me, I make a cash living off deflating coyotes and pretty damn hard to break the regime after 2 years in the sand box with it. considering my professions have all carried the round by my side I am pretty much married to it, but I use my M14 just as much

I think there is something being overlooked with your question, the 50 compared to the 338 family is like comparing a sledgehammer to a scalpel, the ballistic coefficient between these two platforms is almost double and even more in some cases. the inaccuracy of a 50 vs. the 338's is about as...

the can is usually never the problem, I would say its the smithing work on the threading, in the past I have taken cans apart and painted the inside diameter surfaces of the baffles, then fired on round through it and then disassembled the can again and inspected the baffles for any spots where...

haven't seen the bulk packs (500-550 rnds) in quite some time but can still by two 100 round boxes of CCI all day long.
