Yep...i just don't get it.

Especially that 450 Bushmaster abomination!

Whatever floats your boat, but I assure you I won't be buying!

Just my .02,

So; I am not the only one. I feel the same about the 30 carbine. At least the 30 us is not rebated.
Abomination aside, the 450BM is now popular and as such a reasonable option for the No.1.
That is if it works, rebated rim and all. Certainly not for me. Might make a good revolver?

Oh wait a minute, you refer to the muzzle brake, laminated stainless abomination. OK, yes
that too. BIG TIME ABOMINATION. I did post some place my view on the abomination no1.
This is the "look" the gen-x, AR15 and Rambonistas like. IMHO, Anything that sells No1 s is a
good thing. second anything that nudges the new generation in the tradition direction is also good.
I just hope the newbies are not nut jobs that are afraid to register to vote.

I might as well comment on the 450 Marlin option. IMHO -That will be a collector gun. I am fine
with that too. Whatever sells No1's. For that matter, when was the last time you
saw a well worn No1 for sale? I am just thinking now, if Ruger does not continue the Abomination
theme those could be collectable too. It certainly is different!
