wow its sweet

Fox123 · May 4, 2013

Mehh. Probably pulled that much because of the charity associated more than the rifle.

To me looks ugly, regardless of the amount of work and craftsmanship that went into it.

they couldn't build a case to fit the rifle with the scope attached?

nomo613 · May 4, 2013

imho they did a cruddy job on what could have been a really cool project. what turns me off is the break, delta ring, charging handle, trigger guard, and the rest of the exposed lpk. why couldnt they improve these things? why couldnt they have a machinist make some custom parts with a flare? or pay the 10 bucks and put on a seekins mag button and bolt catch etc. that just pisses me off.

I dig it. If only to appreciate the craftsmanship that went into it.

Cyclone · May 5, 2013

i don't know if its only me but that looks ugly...

Damn. I guess I didn't really look well enough at first. I just noticed all of those things you brought up and your right. Why wouldn't they have customized those parts. Can't believe they put a Magpul trigger guard on that. I do like the work done to the receivers and wood but they half assed that rifle.

“Our objective in creating the TAR-10 was to show that the AR platform is more than just a military rifle."
These guys aren't too aware of what a military rifle is. And for knowing that 80k was plausible, I think they could have spent more attention to function details not just the exterior.

Its not even full auto! Wtf?!!!

Wow, someone actually paid that for it. I'd rather have my LE901 and $133k+ in the bank.

BradMacc82 · May 5, 2013

At first look, it looks nice IMO. The color-case hardening, the walnut and inlay/scrollwork is something you don't see on AR's. I actually don't dislike the overall look.

But for the price it went for, No. That was definitely more the charity the rifle was tied to, than the rifle itself.

Doug Turnbull does amazing work but case colors belong on lever guns old pumps and revolvers not ARs .

I sent them a request for a quote to have a old 1890 restored got back a $4000 and 10 month quote . Like I said they do amazing work but your paying allot to have Turbull's hands touch your firearm.

There is a shop in PA called Tropps they are a stocking dealer for Turnbull , beautiful stuff.

notme0255 · May 5, 2013

Nice detail work on the rifle but not on the display case. That much money and it will never go "bang".

Jimbob2.0 · May 5, 2013

Wow, not what I would spend my money on but I like the statement they are trying to make.

I suspect that one will never be fired.
