I'm visitor here, and am relating info about a project 3 of us
over on AR developed. I mentioned it in the Tricks thread. We built a long, super strong, 12ga Paradox style cartridge, by putting 12ga size rim on bmg cases. 1st picture of our case next to regular 12ga case which can also be fired in our chambers. 2nd pic is my Savage 210 that I used for cartridge with a heavy barrel and stock.Ed Hubel http://www.gunownerstv.com/1212.jpg http://www.gunownerstv.com/redone.jpg |

You couldn't pay me to trip the trigger on that puppy without a brake on it.
God speed brave soul....... |
|
WOW!
Does that have to be a destructive device under the National Firearms Act? I have wondered about that with regular shotgun sluggs, over 50 cal. I guess there is a loophole for shotguns. I wonder if your rifle is also covered by that. edited because I see now it can also shoot regular shells. Not trying to be a killjoy. Just wanting to make sure it's all legal. |
|
Holy FUCK A DUCK!!!!
That is probably going to save them from any problems right there. It's still a shotty but it can also take this monster shell At the very least guys thread that barrell so you can attach a brake when slug hunting... Whats the weight of that bastard pictured. Shotty and projectile please. |

I can use that to get rid of those goddamm elephants that keep nibbling the buds off my roses.

I'd love to see pictures of the shooter and target after a shot and see which has more damage!

It doesn't kick bad as it weighs 25 lbs, and has thick recoil pad.
Long barrel, 31" helps. Kicks about like a 10 lb 458 Lott. Yes it is legal as it is technically just a 12ga 3 3/4 inch, and my barrel is marked that way. Title 18 of GCA exempts shotguns from being DDs(thank goodness for all shotgun owners would be registered and paying $200 tax per gun) and in asking bureaucrats, that means any type of case(paper, plastic, brass, aluminum, steel), any practical length, any projectile or shot, rifled barrel or smooth.Here is picture of the nice African style one Rob built on the Borchardt falling block.Ed Hubel http://www.hunt101.com/img/349129.JPG |
|
WOW! I need one... Along with the pintle mount so I can put it on a tripod...
However, it might be worth machining a brake that looks like one you'd find on a WWII era Anti-Tank gun, as that would just be downright badass. |

|
Does it have 2 triggers? |
|
|
Sweet Mary Francis!
I love the idea and would nearly pay to view a video of it being fired. |
|
Send her to me with a case of ammo, I'll shoot her and post a very detailed review for all the pussies here!

Rob has a double set trigger on his.His handles high pressures,
and he got 750 gr bullet out at 3000 fps. I got a 327gr sabot out of my Savage at 3900, just to test it.Got 870 gr hardened cast slug over 2300.I keep my pressures at about 30,000 psi. The Savage has a big 3 lug bolt head and would go real high pressures if action was thicker. I am trying to find someone to make a heavy, thick action to put bolt in. Here is picture of a case I reloaded and fired 36 times, sectioned. No signs of thinning, not even to measure.So we have a winner in our super strong case, good for couple hundred reloads.Ed http://www.gunownerstv.com/12s.jpg |

No ours is not that gun in the video. That is our
"intrepid" AR forum owner, screwing around with a T-Rex that got the best of him.Mine heavy enough to handle recoil, Ed |
|
That is pretty incredible.
I would love to see the wound channel created by that thing. I am always thinking about a better bear gun for camping trips....I have to think that this would take down anything that breathes. Nice work! |
|
You could drive a yugo through the "wound channel" looking for bits and pieces of the body it hit. |
|
|
Mother mary of god thats big. I like it.
+1 (thousand) |

Cost--Did my own work- gun $400--Used a barrel that was a second $50-
$20 heavy stock - Brass- $100. Pad $40-reamed chamber on lathe. So I have about $600. If you use first class barrel $300 and $100 stock blank, reamer, brass you will have a grand in it, doing your ownwork. Gunsmith charges I don't know. Rob did his work with expensive action, and fancy stock wood, and he has $3500 plus in it.Ed |
|
I think that thing could put a Bradley IFV out of action!
Forget "12 gauge from hell" and change the title to "Barret .50 cals are for wussies!" |
|
WTF do you shoot with it? Messerschmits?
I quote Ragnar Benson: "I never thought a man needed a reason to own a gun, but I could think of a LOT of reasons not to own this gun!" |
|
Full Power Shot™ anyone ? Wouldn't be a DD because it could be classed as a shotgun. The same way single-shot .410's can chamber/fire .45LC.
Might make a good gator-gun. If it were semi-auto ( no way, lol) or pump-action, might have uses for dangerous game or defense against bears, etc. |
|
The semi auto action would REALLY help the NOT BREAKING YOUR SHOULDER. Plus it would be totally badass. -jls7 |
|
|
There a guy out west building one a AR-50 bolt action.
He will be able to run high pressures.Couple others checking out Encores and some heavy doubles..Ed |
|
I'll wait for the semi auto, chopped, pistol-gripped AOW version.
|
|
Here is the picture of a big double with heavy
alloy barrels we are checking on to use.Ed http://www.zabalahermanos.com/213-magnum-1.JPG |
|
god WTF do you plan on shooting with that is it some kind of anti tank ... oh yeah elaphant guns to the next level sending them in to space.... knock you on your ass recoil really
