The dude drives a h1.. I know right.... But he makes defense contractor $ which I guess rubs off you when you're designing missile and missile systems all day long...

We're going to the range later today; forgot to mention but his got barrels for both .40 & .50. Speaking of recoil, it's going to pack quite a punch for a magnum that edges 5 pounds loaded.
