think I am going to pull the trigger on this today. I called and just got off the phone with John who was nice and awesome to deal with. They are saying a 4 month wait time, so I should be able to time it up with my bonus at the first of the year.
So who has one? What can I expect? |

What Harley said.....he should know he has one himself Plus we now know John is not the rude salesman everyone has been posting about.

You can expect a strong desire to learn how to reload 7.62 ammo. Probably right about the time the bolt carrier locks back on that first empty mag. And you realize "this monkey is not gonna let go". Congrats man

For those who already own the Predatobr 7.62 with 16.1 inch barrel, how much does the rifle weigh and what kind of accuracy are you seeing with handloads?
I am just about ready to drop the hammer and would like to know real world weight? Thanks, |
