[QUOTE="Black Diamond 408, post: 146654, member: 1563"] jb, I have another take down rifle im working on for a customer, he wants the rifle as light as i can get it(4.5# ?), it will come apart in three sections, buttstock, action, and barrel. The longest part will be the barrel & forarm assembly, this has a 308 win chamber, 19" feather contour barrel. He wants it to fit into a back pack. I made up a Ti action that takes a rem 788 magazine. Lots of design issues with this rifle, lots of titainum parts. I will post some pics of that when the time comes. The Vtac will be very different than the Robar folding stock, my stock system will be removable, could be shot similar to a XP100 pistol. It will have a user friendly rubber pistol grip, similar to a Ruger Redhawk. I have most of the plans drawn up and will start making chips this weekend. Biggest thing will be to get a barrel ordered. I was looking for a decent used barrel, for testing. 6.5mm 8 to 9 twist. Anyone out there have one fire me an email. Dave [/QUOTE]
