[ARCHIVED THREAD] - 24" Beowulf With Tony Rumore's Expert Gunsmithing

Posted: 12/17/2005 5:17:14 PM EDT

This is the remake of the 24" Beowulf Overmatch with the help of Tony Rumore. Had the factory brake removed and had Tony put one of his brakes put on and had him polish the stainless barrel. Also had the FF handguard removed and added a Accuracy speaks 2 1/4" handguard installed. Not an easy task to remove the factory stuff as they use Loctite on everthing. Tony had to cut or machine the brake and handguard off. I have since changed the handguard again with a White Oak FF Handguard.
The first picture is the stock Beo. I also had the 16" which I sold.
Thanks again for a great job Tony Rumore. I get many compliments at the range.

You're right. I never really looked from the bussiness end before. I'll have to correct it in the next range visit. The modification to the stock with the rod helps when using sand bags to elevate the butt end on the bench. Also when shoot prone with a bipod griping the rod with the free hand making horizontal adjustments are made easier. I modified the stock that was purchased from BM. JP Enterprises also sells this stock modified.

Well, everyone see things differently. I myself didn't like the small diameter hangaurd. So I changed it for the 2 1/4" dia.

Is that a stock A.A. barrel that has been threaded or how is brake installed?

Tony Rumore of Tromx did the barrel work on the Beo barrel. Had it treaded and polished. The AA brake had to be machined off.

The brake is very easy to take off. It is threaded with purple loctite which is light strength. You have the idea situation without a factory brake. Tony Romore can do it for you:http://www.tromix.com His prices are very reasonable.

He threaded my Beowulf and put on an A1-style flash hider. FIRST CLASS work. I highly recommend him.
