Okay, so if you're wondering why the BFG-50As aren't shipping out in large numbers yet, I'll tell you. The first batch was scheduled to ship out in December but we discovered a "bug" in the design during test-firing. At least I thought it was a bug right up until yesterday. Turns out it was a problem so elementary, I'm embarassed that it even happened. I basically wasted the last 2 months chasing a non-problem! Now the shipping will probably be delayed while I design, build and utilize (on myself) an ass-kicking machine! Heading to the range in the next several days to test a couple of different barrel brands.

Check out the video of a couple of shots.

Interesting.In the first clip I couldn't tell why the shell jumped towards the camera,but it's clear in the second clip.Is this the minor glitch you have been working on?The third clip seems to throw at a completely different angle.

No, that's not an issue. I don't care where the brass goes, as long as it goes out of the gun!

Was the problem removeing the brass out of the head of the lefty shooter you had test firing the rifle ? It looks like the the round fired in the last vid clip wasn't as hot as the first two vids.
