And isn't Montana the state that is vanguarding the "made in-state for sale in-state to skirt fed tax laws" (or something like that)
???

Wonder if carbon fiber silencers are next? Believe it or not they are legal and encouraged in Norway.

We can take a 19-pound barrel off of a .50-caliber sniper rifle and we can make it 2.2 pounds...Wasn't that weight part of the stability factor that made long range targeting possible? With a lighter barrel won't the rifle lose targeting quicker?

No oil, and lots of recoil, but OH how we love to carry it!

Man that recoil would knock you out!
But I suppose a very accommodating shock absorbing stock might (emphasis on might) make it doable.
I darn near broke my thumb when I made the mistake of buying and shooting a titanium .41 magnum.
Ouch that hurt. I was probably 21 or 22 and didn’t know better.
I promptly sold it.

If it’s hi-tech, they’ve probably counteracted the kick-back so you don’t need as much weight.

To: marktwain
A 5-6 lb AR is appealing to me, but their site lists them as starting about $3,400.

Not necessarily.
If the gun is designed to absorb the force of the shot, it won’t kickback as hard.

A good rule of thumb for something like this is to wait a while for reviews from practiced gun users.
At the same time, you can’t wait around too long, as this will stimulate the bad guys to want to outlaw it. If there is even an inkling of that, then you want to buy second hand with a private sale reseller to preclude the government paperwork that could later be used to confiscate your gun.
It’s always better to avoid (legal) tyranny now, so you don’t have to evade (illegal) tyranny later.

**accurate weapons using carbon-fiber barrels and stocks***
Weren’t these things done back in the late 60s or early 70s? I remember reading of shotguns with these barrels back then.

Carbon wrapped barrels have been around for awhile.
