It would be as easy to make a bolt action into a "blowback" machine
gun as most semi autos that were not first designed as machine guns.

Â*Â* Now that would take a Real Machinist ! I have a small machine shop
and I know where to get the plans to make a couple of different arms
into full autos . But that $250,000 fine and ten years in prison is a
pretty good deterrent . Especially since I don't have any arms that can
be easily converted - and have less than zero need for one . I prefer to
do my work with bolt actions at a slightly longer distance ... Rock
chucks at 400 meters anyone ?


I prefer just a six shot revolver.Â* It goes bang every time and won't
jam with brass at ejection.

My choice barks over her and bites over yonder. This is mean hand gun
I got.


Â* I bet it ain't any meaner than a TC Contender with a 14" bull barrel
chambered in .30 Herrett . And wearing a 4X TC RP scope ... With the
right load that one grouped under 1/2" at 50 yards . And a 125 gr soft
point leaving the muzzle at 2100+ FPS had more energy at 50 yards than a
.44 mag w/240 gr has at the muzzle .

One of my sons has a 500 S&W. He thinks its just neat to have. I've
been trying to get him to the range to shoot it. He also has a Desert
Eagle 50AE. I have shot it and recoil is very manageable because the
gun is so heavy. I would only shoot it once though as the ejected case
hit me in the forehead.
