Some details:<br /><br />- You have to remove and replace the 8-shot magazine at least five times before it empties.<br /><br />- With every major version release, ammunition triples in caliber but is loaded with 15% less gunpowder.<br /><br />- For each bullet, the uZee first points at an empty box called “My Targets”, then you have to cock it twice before aiming at your actual target.<br /><br />- User manual includes twelve pages of “congratulation on your purchase”, a list of available targets and accessories, and safety disclaimers, but no mention of the trigger, safety, or how to load it.<br /><br />- Unlike the Apple, the uZee can be fired from left-hand, right-hand, and center positions (using the “scroll-stock”).<br /><br />- Two months after the uZee, the market is flooded with aKays from Asia.<br /><br />:)Hatless in Hattiesburghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17530195543212037359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-51325676815563670972009-12-24T23:49:51.130-05:002009-12-24T23:49:51.130-05:00You mustn't also forget that the iR-15 has a s...You mustn't also forget that the iR-15 has a single control feature.

Flat out, nobody in the business does what we do to a reciever. Bring a camera.<br /><br /> And don't I still owe you a lower reciever for the SVT that shot sideways? <br /><br /> Plus, sitting in the corner of the office gathering dust, is the 6.8 Rem barrel and bolt I meant to ship ages ago. It's public now, so everybody pile on me if I don't get the lady her promised goodies soonest.<br /><br /> An O.M.F.G. moment you might enjoy. Mary from ATF was doing some polite poking, and in truth, she's tough but a sweetie, so we actually listen sometimes. <br /><br /> She made a comment about product turnover, and we checked it out. Guess what? An entire crate of original CMT (not Stag) marked lower recievers, the same ones the pimple witted kids on AR15.Com pay $400 bucks for. <br /><br /> I promise you a low number 4 digit when you get here. That's not a bribe, you can say anything you choose to about the shiny, beautiful, breathtakingly lovely and precise pistols I'm slaving my pink little fingers to death over. Anything, no matter how it might hurt me. <br /><br /> And be warned. It's a Polish factory, so everybody smokes on the floor. Constantly.<br /><br /> Feel free to light up any time you're not in the office, and most of the locals have standardised on Marlboro Lights if you're carrying spares.<br /><br /> We also eat lots of meat (insanely good Polish restaurants here in Novy Britski), everybody hunts (I spend all my spare time each October tuning up everybody's hunting rigs), and I've gotten half a dozen of the younger guys into my club and hooked on NRA High Power Rifle.<br /><br /> The humongous blond kid?

The action is lovingly handforged from a single piece of duraluminum and hand-filed to fit the user's frame precisely. Stock and forend are pieces of elm burl which grow around special forms placed in the rich soil of the Carpathian mountains. The twin barrels are regulated so that the dual projectiles merge in flight at the point of impact, adjusted by a sliding latch on the forend. Fittings will begin in February of 2010, and the first rifles will be delivered in june of 2011. Each rifle will come with a pair of magazines in the handfitted baize lined case, additional magazines on request.
