That Honey Badger is cool, but I don't know if I like naming it after a short-lived internet joke.

Anyone into...SHORT-BARRELED rifles?  :D

My old SBR.  (Sold it to friend to fund FD.  Bad decision.)

Eh, I've -ALWAYS- known that badgers are mean motherfuckers.    Naming a gun a "Cobra" or "Black Widow" wouldn't seem weird, "Honey Badger" may be known because of the internet joke, but they are still nasty little SOBs.

[attachimg=1]
Mega billet 7075 side-charger
ARPerformance 16" SOCOM profile .223 Wylde & 9310 bolt (this barrel is actually threaded 5/8-24 even though it's .223, to leave more material around the muzzle)
Seekins SAR w/ ti barrel nut, adj. gas block
Nightforce Unimount Ultralight
Phase5 EBR-v2-sc bolt release, ambi charging handle
Magpul CTR and K-grip or ACS w/ enhanced pad and Stag A2 grip, E-mag
Lancer L5 AWM
Stag 7075 buffer tube, H2 buffer (or Slash's 6.5oz HSS tungsten buffer), CAR spring or Wolff XP
CQD end plate
HK hooks and Fastex buckles
Tango Down Battlegrips
Ergo short rail covers
ETA: I forgot, PWS S7 tool steel DI BCG

Lower will be Seekins or Mega, optic will probably be some kind of Viper PST. Then I want to do uppers in 6.5BRX and .458 SOCOM. Some progress but will take a back seat to paying for my subframe for now. It's gonna be lightweight.

Related side note, I think I have found one of the most fun things to shoot AT, ever.  Friend had all these busted pieces of concrete around grapefruit size, the kind that's mixed with pebbles in it...  They just freaking explode when you hit them.  I shot one that was probably 40 yards downrange with a .308 and a little piece of it actually HIT ME where I was standing.  Awesome.


unless you own a turbo ls9 rx7 you do not know what the fuck you are talking about.

I want to make some nice AR500 steel  targets, like a 3/8"-1/2" thick swinging or reactive target target. I guess if you let it swing, it will hold up better at closer ranges.

I made some swinging targets using some of the old style propane tanks (the ones you can't refill any more and you can't throw away either).  They make great targets, about torso size, and when they swing, red rusty water pours out the bullet holes for added realism.
