Last five are in the top portion of the cardboard/plate. That's holding center mass. Travis Originally Posted by Geno67 Trump being classless,tasteless and clueless as usual.

Shrap told me I'd get a lot more use out of the A3 version so that's the direction I went. I really like this thing.

I was thinking the same thing. Just hoping someone else would say it first... . Awesome rifle Travis!!! Those are so much fun, just like the original m1917's. My buddy has them and heats them up so bad, that the stocks start to boil out the stain and cosmoline... . When he's done shooting them, the whole side of his face and his hands are brown...

I can't wait to shoot some silhouettes with it now that I got some dope. The 200yd gong was in serious trouble in the offhand. Just picking it up makes a guy want to kill a foreigner. I love it.

I already ordered 20 stripper clips and the bitchin' canvas 100 round cartridge belt. I can't wait to go play soldier on some wabbits. Although gopher season is rapidly approaching.
