New "Toy"

[Blake Clark]

Had posted this up at DTR and was encouraged to mosey on over here and post too....

Well my little disclaimer first:


Now I use the phrase "TOY" lightly, we all know something of this caliber is by no means a toy or should be used as one..

Now as much as I wish I could I cannot take credit for ownership of this b e a utiful piece of hardware, it belongs to my little brother. I havent got to fire it yet but will soon, hes breaking it in and getting the scope set to how he likes. Plus me working 6 days a week and never home kinda puts a damper on it.

Well without further ado, here she is...

bolt the tripod behind your light bar. bet no body would run...

Without a doubt the best $$$ ive spent. Seeing her is NOTHING compared to pulling the trigger. I've shot Barrett's and they can't even come close to compareing to the Bushmaster. If anyone has any quesions or is in the market for a .50 feel free to ask. I did tons of research before my purchase. Mabey I can save you some google time.

That thing is Awesome! How much does a round cost?

SBB

[Administrator]

ha, probably more than the gun!

[slade.clark]

M33 Ball - $4.00 per, API - $3.75, Match Grade $7-$12 per....So it CAN get pricey LOL

[Administrator]

ooff. That's some pretty expensive stuff!!

[Larry Farr]

Man it would be worth every penny!
But like most things I enjoy, Fat chance in Cali.:mad:

Sorry to hear that, But some good news is they are modding a .499 for you cali folks :) The ban only states .50 :)

[Blake Clark]

Barret makes a .417 I believe. Its not controlled under GCA 68 cause its a smaller diameter than .5 inches.

Unless of course its a Commiefornia law that has got you so blue. Its a shame that the liberals have so poisoned a beautiful place with their idiocy.

I want one as a duty rifle mounted on the top of my patrol car with a hatch I can pop through if the need arises. that will probably be never, but it would be fun to have anyways :)

[Blake Clark]

The Sheriffs Office has been after my brother to join the SRT team and he told them last week that he would join with a smile if he could use his new baby. I dont think they like that idea too much.

[Blake Clark]

NICE :) Welcome to the site. You still work in LE?

[Blake Clark]

No Sir,

As much as I loved and still miss my job and my men, I left for the opportunity (of a lifetime really) to work with my dad in the oilfield and better support my wife and son.

the US has taken hard hit.

[Blake Clark]

Luckily I have not only managed to survive but have not even slowed down. Things have been taking a hard hit but I think its starting to turn upwards just a smidgen.

[slade.clark]

Buisness is booming on my end LOL.... I guess people feel that since they cant work its easier to steal then look harder...

[Blake Clark]

thats good...
keep it up, oil prices have come back up somewhat and everyone else I have talked to is starting to see a job after this one. for most of the year, they have been getting equipment back to the yard, cleaned up, maintenanced, and prepped for the next job before there was a next job. Now they are starting to get the next job lined up before the last one has finished.

Im between the manufacturing side of a service company and the R&D engineering side so my job focus has shifted, but its gonna take a while before manufacturing really cranks back up...

[fkn569]

when do i get a try.

[Blake Clark]

They way things look, never.

But apparently we can sight in your .303 British, twice...

They sent the wrong boresite for a second time. Im having a pretty good laugh about it, Slade aint too happy.

[fkn569]

That sucks for him. He will just have to do it the old fashioned way. I dont mind helping.

[Blake Clark]

He talked to them and they got it straight and will overnight one come Monday morning.

[fkn569]
