Pardon me for asking, but just what is the point of having a .22 LR that looks like a .50 BMG (or any of the others)????

I'd rather my own son see me die on my feet as a free man, than watch him go, broken, into slavery.

Actually your seeing ONLY rimfires. This guy is converting airsoft rifles into stock kits for .22's.

Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

simple. cheap, fun, plinking.

theyre not made for training and i didnt build these .22 conversions to shoot out past 100 yards for precision. we have ranges that have those shooting galleries with steel targets @ 25, 50, 75 yards and i built it with that in mind.

i know all the negative comments ive gotten about it being mall ninjaish, poser, waste of money, ferio with a ferrari body kit. it is what it is and im having fun with it. nothing serious.

eventually ill focus on a single bolt action rifle for precision.

What does a conversion like that cost, with and without the cost of the receiver? Oh, and to be honest, I was thinking the same thing..
