50 caliber fundraiser.

[50BMGBOB]

Exactly what others have said. In the past, I have had shooters as young as 7 shoot it. Now only when I travel out of state can I do that. The same is true if you have an AR15 that is a registered AW, you can not let some one under 18 shoot it, but if it is a CA compliant OLL then it is OK to let them.

I do like to get new shooters interested in firearms. Just last week I had a few new shooters to the range, a 10 year old girl, her father and her aunt. They got to fire several 22's both rifles and pistols at paper and steel targets. The girl asked her dad if they could get their own firearms before they left the range and I'm working with her dad to make that happen. I have lost track of the number of new shooters that I have helped get started. Even at today's ammo prices, take a friend to the range.

Huh. Alright. Makes perfect sense now. Haha, I never connected the "can't be lent to anyone under 18" thing to the BMG.

Knowledge is good!

i technically have 2 registered 50BMGs...

i never bought an upper for a single shot AR lower... lol...


but hey... i paid $25 for that piece of paper, IIRC.

that and serbu is ready to go...

so someone arrange this thing and bring the ammo... lol...

[ldivinag]

not true, you'd be suprised at the yearly income of some .50BMG owners.

yup yup yup...

i bought mine cause i didnt want to fall into that BUY NOW OR FOREVER HOLD YOUR PEACE gun bans... (dont even ask me what happened to me at traders in san leandro on dec 31, 1999)....

granted, the single shot AR lower was cheaper than the $500 piece of pipe SERBU sold me... lol... it took over a year to send the pipe back to serbu for them to finally finish it...

i mean i suffered financially hard. i mean it was like 1-2 less lapdances per week... the horrors... the horrors...











jk...

If it's a local meet in SoCal, I can bring a few .50s and similar rifles/conversions:

Serbu BFG50 .50BMG
SHF UltraMag50 .50BMG
LigaMec UltraLite50 .50Spotter (kid friendly )
FAR50 .416Barrett (kid friendly )

I can also bring a M2HB .50DTC conversion barrel for anyone who might want to try that out too...

.50BMG, .50DTC, .50spotter, .416barrett ammo too...

I had the honor of shooting bob's 50 BMG a few months ago and ever since then have been trying to figure out a way to get one of my own. while i agree a fundraiser of sorts would be a good thing I cant help but feel that certain of the big bore shooters in this thread have that been there done that feeling as far a repealing these absurd laws and who could blame them.

we have a problem in CA and this country in general and that problem is that there are people who serve no other purpose then to get paid to come up with laws that are not needed and many of them are not wanted. over 40,000 new laws went on the books this week stemming from 30 states. at what point do we start telling the legislators enough is enough?
I want to buy a 50 BMG dammit and ive had enough of these people telling me what i can and can not do with my freedom here in america

thanks again BOB:
