Gents, I love my BAR in .300 win mag. It was the first rifle I bought myself back in 1989. I have several other rifles in that caliber now (and larger) and am thinking about cutting the barrel on this one and putting a can on it. It is way light in weight in the fore end and barrel and has sent two buddies to the hospital for stitches. Since i have other rifles in this caliber, just tinkering with putting a can on the end to tame it a bit. BUT, obviously, it's a gas powered semi-auto. I assume the can will send pressures back and I might need a heavier spring.

Thoughts from the intelligentsia?

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
