    So, I've been thinking about getting a BRO AR Pistol. So, I check the MD Handgun Roster and the BRO Fallout 10 in .308 is on there, but not the 5.56.

    would someone really have a .308 pistol? or would this be for an SBR?

    seems like a .308 with no stock would hurt like a Mo' Fo'.

    this belong to anyone here?

    Duffy's got that on the roster for a custom SBR build we did, but we've got other 308 pistols as well (good basis for an SBR).

    Surprising large calibers in a hand gun is not as bad as you think. I shoot lots of large bore rounds out of my Thompson center encores and contender. Both single shot. I have had a 15 inch encore barrel in 308 and recoil was not bad. I also had a 15 inch 45/70 that was a handful but manageable. I use my 15 inch 209x50 encore barrel to hunt deer. My load is 90 GRS of blackhorn 209 and a 250 gr bullet. This is the same load I use in my 209x50 riffle. The recoil isn't bad and in fact when I am shooting at a deer I don't notice it.
