Milsurps / Prohib Alexander Arms Beowulf Appreciation Post

Post image

Howdy Folks!

The Texan is back with yet another Gun Appreciation Post, where today we have a gun once available in Canada in small numbers before eventually being prohibited.

Today we have the Beowulf!

.50 Beowulf is an interesting cartridge because it was originally designed to take out an engine block, but the funny thing is that the cartridge found its own cult following for people who go hog hunting.

It’s also appealing for those who live up in Alaska, Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut as they all gotta worry about bears and need something for bear defense. The amount of punch that the .50 Beowulf Cartridge delivers is enough for that.

In the states, one of the appeals we have for it is that it is a straight wall cartridge, and some states have hunting laws that only allow you to hunt with straight wall cartridges and not bottlenecked ones.

Anyways enjoy!

They do not break the rules and there is no rule saying that you cannot make gun appreciation posts.

Until the rules change, they are here to stay.

Except this one, I don’t plan on deleting anytime soon.

I stated why I didn’t interact sometimes, which is that I have these on standby and I make them ahead of time and have these on a schedule. I also have a life to get to, and do not have all of the time in the world to interact with the discussions. If I had more time, I would.

The other thing is these posts do not clutter this subreddit because there are still people who post on this subreddit frequently to keep the feed balanced. If I really wanted to Karma Whore, then I would have already gone to a more popular subreddit to do that.

Once again, it is not against the rules. Until they change, they are here to stay.

Edit: And Downvoting me will not make me remove this post, nor will it be a driver, because all that is doing is proving my point correct.
