I once owned a BAR, loved it. However the stock was a bit flat for my size.

On the other hand a A Bolt in a Magnum Chambering is a dream rifle. Carried one from Texas to Alberta, CA. Nothing ever ran far that I put a chunk of lead/copper thru.

Unfortunately one day while boating...

You're not talking about a real BAR, are you? I think you're talking about that semiauto sporting rifle Browning put out for a long while.

Not really a combat weapon.
