    Attaché barrel?
    Very cool regardless.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    I believe it is .
    The previous owner didn't give me much info , but he did say the barrel was worth a lot more than a standard one .
    I'm looking at adding another barrel ( probably 308 ) which I will shorten down to 18 -19 inch's and use with open sights for close range pig shooting .
    That and a 223 will cover all the rifle shooting I will ever do .

    Fair enough - firearm .

    Yeah I just loved the short barrel and once I tried that stock there was no going back. Was worth it, I love it.

    If you want to be fickle its more of a carbine with a barrel that length. Nice gun by the way!

    I always wanted a 50 & have been getting brass etc together for quite a while now.

    She finally showed up on Thursday, my Barrett M107A1

    I got her assembled & got chamber lengths for various projectiles, & sorted starting loads.





    She has shot some pretty good groups so far & some not so good ones....

    She has expensive tastes & really doesn't like the cheap ADI FMJs, bloody typical....



    The trigger is fairly "interesting" & moves at least 12-13mm before anything exciting starts to happen, hopefully that can be sorted as it makes her very hard to shoot accurately.

    I have fired 115 rounds through her so far, recoil isn't too bad, more of a massive push & concussion is non-existent

    I built a dummy mag so I could single feed her.



    I tried a pistol grip off one of my XLR chassis to try to help with trigger control, but I will probably put the factory one back on.



    All in all I'm very happy with her & it looks like she wants to shoot so I just have to get that sorted, good times

    An Importer offered to get it in for me, I said no you can't, he said yes I can, I said Bugger how much.....

    Then I got a permit & started selling stuff as fast as I could to pay for it...
