I imagine it would be difficult for this semi-auto to get hot enough to need to change out the barrel.

Unless you can pull the trigger REALLY fast.:D

That thing IS cool.
Thanks for the pics.

Slightly off topic, and I hope you don't get mad.....but....I think people who post pics of their small children on the internet are either crazy or not paying attention to the dangers of the world we live in.....

Sorry, had to say it......

I'm impressed, really. Now that would be a show stopper at the local range.

Is Century finally delivering these? I tried to order one when they first advertised them....that was many months ago.

Very nice, BTW. What do you plan to feed it?

I ordered mine through Centerfire Systems >> http://www.centerfiresystems.com/RIFLE-M53.aspx

They put me on a 'waiting list' and that was about 6-months ago.......called me when it was available.

It's from Century Arms but made by Wise Lite ARms (better build). :wink:

I'm gonna feed it 8mm Surplus

Re: MG-42 / M53 pics - it's here !
 
Pick up some nice Mausers in 8mm and you will have a good battery of weapons.

I paid 6 bucks for a Lee Enfield out of the NRA magazine......in 1960.


AG.....great pics.....you'll make a proud daddy of that new baby.

Re: MG-42 / M53 pics - it's here !
 
Damn you are old Andy lol...

$6 in 1960 would be what now ? I've seen them from 50 to 100 bucks plus depending on condition at gun shows.
