It looks like you have an RPG mounted on top of your rifle.

List weight on USO's site is 4.5lb.

My best guess on price as configured to be in the $5,400 range.
Since you are a repeat <span style="text-decoration: line-through">offender</span> I mean customer, $4,860?

If you would, please post a pic with the SN9 & the suppressor mounted.

Congrats!
That is a very nice way to round out that system.
At ~$20k after GAP services & accessories, I think you have your 50 BMG platform covered.
(Money well spent, that is a solid investment.)
What are you having George do to improve upon your AW50?

Re: This just in!

I hate to be a downer, but after watching the slow-mo video of a fifty being fired, and all the barrel and scope flex that occurs, does the unsupported front end of that scope concern you? It would also seem to me that lighter would be better for a scope on a heavy recoiling rifle as there would be less inertia, and thus less stress on the rings and mount.

What does this scope do that the S&B that is often packaged with the AW50 doesn't.

Again, not trying to be a killjoy, just curious.

I've got a Lilja 29" navy profile barrel I want installed on it. There are a few smiths in the Austin area I'm going to talk to about it, so I don't have to spend a fortune on shipping (not to mention I don't have a case it'll fit into with the new barrel installed).

@Skunkeye -- I'm not worried in the least about it. Jeff at USO assured me it's good to go. A number of folks use the big SN-9s on 50 BMG rifles. I assume if I were to have a problem they'd take care of me.
