I've heard reference of them kicking like a mule, but it wasn't as bad as I had anticipated. That muzzle flash is SPECTACULAR! BOOOOOM-FLASH!!!
I'm surprised the Germans didn't drop their rifles and wave the white flag when that beast was being fired at them!

Skuggi, if you're coming to the shoot, ask Joe Smith if you can test-drive his.


Yep, it'll be there and anyone is free to shoot it.


On the other hand the reason it didn't kick as bad is the cheapo recoil pad I slipped on. The first time I shot it with the metal plate it killed me.

I'll try to get my brother to bring his so you can try both.
