And you need a 50 caliber weapon--why?

"And you need a three bedroom house--why?"

"And you need a car that can do more than 70mph---why?"

"And you need a computer--why?"

The list goes on and on. BTW, my examples are not rights that are supposed to be guarenteed by the Constitution.

That was a plug test on the Viper, and it proves it's one tough gun!

Now can you imagine anyone volunteering to pull the trigger on a .50 with the barrel plugged with sand?

HEY, TOM..................................we need your help over here!

I noticed that too!

Seems there was a voluntary recall on the aluminum ones. To be replaced by steel MB's.

I was also interested to learn that it's available in a left hand version for the same price.


Hey!, Ya'll host out of towners for shoot outs?

Because control freaks like you don't want me to have one.

I'm leaning towards the Barrett M99, pictured here:

It looks like loads of fun, and it's capable of protecting the US Constitution from all sorts of evil critters.

You betcha!
Come on down!

Out of towners don't pay for anything, not even the range fees, and we feed reeeeal good!

That's what I have, Mulder.

You'll love it!

The only problem I've ever had with mine is trying to get comfortable in bed with that darn scope digging into my back!

LOL! In my case, I can see a big problem being that Buffy (my AR-15) will get real jealous if I start sleeping with another rifle.

What kind of groups can you get with yours?

The longest range I've been able to shoot was 300 yards, and I was getting about a two and a half inch group.
Not good, but I don't know when the Springfield scope started giving up the ghost, either.
It finally disintegrated internally.
