Rob in Shotgun News

Post by Snake-eater 1 »

There is a good article regarding the 300 Blackout vs. the 7.62 x 39 mm in the September 10 issue of Shotgun News, which I received in the mail yesterday. Also, on page 16 is a great photo of our forum founder Rob Silvers. Now we can put face to name! :D

Is that the pre running Robert or the new and improved model?

Man, I haven't seen an issue of Shotgun News in years!

That was pre running and pre resistance training.

Just ran (literally) to Barnes and Noble and they only had the Aug 6th issue.

Any chance of posting the rest of the article. It's quite an interesting read and now I am left with a cliff hanger...

Check out the running thread. You'll get a lot more than a face.

@juperterdraft - Here's a link to the whole article on the AAC website.
http://www.advanced-armament.com/assets ... H_0408.pdf

Hmmm the spec's I can find for the Cyclops says it's 15.75" long.

From Cyclops you're holding in the picture you appear to be about 3.8 or so Cyclops tall ... Tom is 4.25 Cyclops tall and Stallone is about 4.45 Cyclops tall.

Based on elements (no pun intended) from the picture it's more like you're eye to eye with Danny DiVito. :D
