Bigger than pocket sized toys.

Very reliable, not a piston gun. So far I've found that it can knock down steel at 75yds.

Apart from that beautiful Kimber, if that is a Noveske N4 Light 5.56mm, I'm suddenly thinking I might need to add another item to my gun safe after all.

Beautiful combo!

Carried in a Thunderwear holster?   ;D  (brings to mind "Bob" in the Enzite commercials)

That's one sweet looking gun!

It looks really scary though.  Obviously the "weapon of choice" of gang members and Mexican drug kingpins.  It must be banned.  Think of the children!  ::)

It looks like those are made in Grants Pass, Oregon?  Wow, only 2 hours from me.  Yours appears to have "a few" upgrades!  Can you list all the extras?

Scary, but interesting!   :)    :)

Hey Richard, its been some time since I've "seen" you being PCT is still down. It's only a Noveske lower. When I was shopping Noveske complete rifles were on back order. I found two stripped lowers and grabbed them. Should have gotten more. I like the Noveske upper but prefer the clean lines of the smooth fore end. The upper I have is made by Rainier Arms. I got it about two hours before they increased the price by $150.  Hell, if I stumble across a Noveske Diplomat upper in VIS I may have to grab it just because.

Thanks for the comments. Trying to take some creative original shots of firearms. With the gun forum galleries showing some really good photography skills I'm trying to tweak my skills to make a different image. Still have a way to go. These were shot using natural light. I need to make a light box big enough for long guns.

I need to work on getting true representation of the "blackness" of the guns. The camera doesn't see true white or black and it tries to show it as grey.

It's a magnificent piece of work, and those photographs have awakened in me that same old feeling of "need" which always seems to precede the start of a new project.   8)

My wife has tried to convey the negative concept of "don't need"
on several occasions and I simply reply that "need" has nothing
to do with it.

My wife says the same thing.  I just reply "want" overrides "don't need".   :)     :D
