Wear both plugs and muffs...these things are LOUD. They also attract a lot of attention at the range....usually positive.

What does that thing shoot? Atlas II rockets?

Seriously. Double up on hearing protection. Big fireball too.

Awaiting a range report..

Man, that is an incredible looking piece. I believe CMP has stopped taking orders for .30 carbine ammo for now, but when they start again, that'd be a good place to go for a supply to feed that beast. Nice pickup - congrats!

I didnt want to get it and not sure if I will keep it,,,,,
But I've looked for one for the past 3 years without seeing one at a reasonable price....
But as it was below 500 OTD I got it

Almost looks like a CZ-52/ 1911 long slide bastard child... I kinda like it, but I think it would starve surrounded by ammo that I can find.
Ammo ammo everywhere, and not a round to chamber
