Lon Lindenberg of the Iowa DNR gave me an email confirmation today that the 50 Beowulf was added to the list of pistol calibers legal for use in the 2006 fall/winter season.
After some searching on the net i found their are a few of the revolver guys chambering in this round also. the magnum research guys are using the 50 beo in their
BFR. i also have heard the
freedom arms guys are doing it as well - i haven't verified this, however....
I spoke with Bill Alexander of Alexander Arms last week and he told me he had given permission for a small run of 50 Beo pistols to be made at
olympic arms. I think the contact was Mr. Houseman, if i'm not mistaken. I also know that
bohica tool makes them. I can't speak to how many of these guys actually have Bill's permission, but i know the BFR and the Oly Arms entities have been ok'd by AA.
Is there any interest out here in the Iowa HTF for these in AR pistol form?
