Turnbull does amazing work, some of those old levers are better now than they were new...

I'm cool with being an OB scrub. Life's great here on the bottom of the barrel

That's a safe queen. I would never fire that, unless absolutely necessary.

Regular ones, not serial number 1, go for around 5k. While thats not chump change, thats no $25k either. I would shoot a regular one, clean the shite out of it, then put it up for good.

I just think it's kinda dumb to dress up an AR. You're polishing a turd in the looks department IMO, they have just made a turd look as good as physically possible.

I agree 100%. However, they did a good enough job that I think it looks good. I dont think it would look good in the sand box or even in the woods but I believe it has its own beauty.

One of my favorites is a Uberti Winchester 1873 Carbine with the case hardened receiver. The AR10 is just a modern version of this rifle.

It definitely looks great, which is something I never thought I'd say about an AR.

Some of their other stuff is amazing.
