A beauty but the .50AE round is too powerful for practical self-defence. Do you have pictures of the Jericho?

I like that one (and the machine gun but Kalifornia has some really annoying gun laws) best. Now what are the retail prices for this nice gun? I am working on a Christmas list....

The laws of physics don't change ... Yes, but we learn to better master them. Add a laser for targeting and distance measurement and it will make up for quite some length.

Read up on the Sabra(I think that's name of the Israeli-modified M-60). 120mm smoothbore gun, updated armor and electronics, and a more powerful engine. NICE!!!!! Have some pics to treat us with?

The Sabra provides a maximum road speed of 48 kmph and accelerates from zero to 32 kmph in 9.6 seconds

Is the Sabra being adopted by the IDF or is it for export only as I read from the late Ian V. Hogg.

The 6mm PPC would be an equally good choice, too, but I doubt that it's Soviet-designed case would endear it to the military brass in the U.S.

There's nothing wrong with a bullpup, as long as your optics are working. Screw up the optics, drop back to iron sights, and you're screwed.

Looks like it takes Armalite series mags.

Can you provide ballistics data on the round. If it's a good round, it wouldn't surprise me if the brass refuse a good weapon just because it's Russian designed. (The Su-35 and newest MiG-29 varients are superior to current US warplanes.)

I've shot the Dessert Eagle .50 semi-auto. Its a monster of a gun.
First time I shot it, I hadn't really had much experience with a semi-auto. I forgot about the slide, and ripped off half my left thumbnail on the first shot (I assume.)
The dang thing had such a kick and concussion, I didn't realize I injured my thumb till the clip was empty and I saw the blood running down my wrist.

A friend sent me an e mail today which showed a picture of his Freedom Arms .50 AE and a pile of empty cartridge cases that were as large as the revolver and some of the cases were standing up. He's getting in shape in order to use his brand new .500 Limbaugh that's going to be delivered Tuesday.
