I would really like to get a 50 cal of some type. I probably won't shoot it very much...who makes a good cheap 50? Who makes the cheapest?
Does anyone make a kit form or something like that? OH...and I am serious..none of this birdman weapons crap..  okay..thanks!medcop |

Cheap and .50 cal are two words you will never see in the same sentance.

Since this is a one shot bolt gun...would a peson be better off getting one of those Caliban legal lowers..the kind that are one shot or have a fixed 10 round mag...basically this would be just for looks..or does the mag well serve some purpose on this rifle? medcop |

All these are meant to use AR lowers. This allows you to get into a 50 cheaply (if you already own a AR15). And no, the mag well serves no purpose.

Go to the Ferret site and you can view the DPMS mag-less lower...

Go to the library and pick up the Guns and Ammo from about three months ago. They review and shoot several fifty's. I think the cheapest one (that also produced some of the best groups) was called a Serbu (????). The most expensive one was Barret. The most dissapointing due to lousy trigger was Armalite (but, had the most effective brake).

Medcop, a guy in Georgia has a State Arms Rebel for sale ($2100) on Biggerhammer. It has had 85 rounds through it so is like new. The price of the gun new was $2250 and with Klaus' death it has hard telling what it will be worth now. It is very accurate, but a single shot, if that bugs you. www.biggerhammer.net

If you got any machining practice, shotgun news had a article about how to make your own.
Thought about it at one point. Keving67 |

Hey everybody, my intel tells me that medcop actually works for Diane Feinstein's office. He's (actually it's a she) is gathering intel on fifty cals to place in legislation to ban them. Don't tell him (her) shit; she's a dirtbag just looking to ban our second amendment rights. She's gonnna be asking questions about shotguns next.

Sitting Bull,
I was also thinking about getting one of those shotgun things...do you have a good source on the street where one could purchase such a thing? I hear they have a round for them that contains hundreds of tiny pellets (I think I heard it was called #8 shot?)...that sounds really dangerous! Well anyway...thanks for the info...and I knew someone would post the birdman 50..hehehe medcop |

Medcop--what is wrong with Birdman's stuff? Here is a pic from a serious ad for his stuff:
 $3500 + S & H and it can be yours--I doubt you would ever find another like it. The Ferrett looks promising:  About $1900 for an upper for your AR. |
