                        Not yet. But it will have one.... Lol.

                        I like it. There is a few things I should have done different, like fluting the barrel, and I wanted a McMillan A5 in GAP Camo, but I was impatient and got tired of waiting. It can be done later on.

                          I think it looks awesome.... I definitely wouldn't sacrifice integrity and flute the barrel, with no added benefit besides looks... But that's up to debate if it does or doesn't affect integrity... My thinking is there no way it can't... But also my thinking is why chance it when a bull barrel is so much sexier anyway?

                          Oh and for a name... Black Betty.... Big bertha.... Or simply "evil" but pronounce it like dr evil "evir"
