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.

Like I said respectfully on one of your previous posts, this kind of content isn't relevant.

You don't know the Canadian gun industry or what is/was common. Filter down your content to stuff that is relevant and post less.

Meanwhile, I already took that advice and did find out that this one was relevant:

Linking something from a decade and a half ago is wild work. Proves youre posting low effort

Youre not welcome here. Your post low effort stuff. Please just stop lil bro. Go back to lusting after fake women's breastmilk.

“Proves you are posting low effort”

Meanwhile, I also use Forgotten Weapons, Gun Wikis, Forums, Manuals, even have asked some CAF guys for some info on the C7 and C8 and made a post about it, thanking them all for the help on that one.

This one in particular, I used a spec sheet and some information about the cartridge to make it, and backtracked many sources just to make the post. Which still takes a lot of effort to do.

Yawn
