Turnbull has taken the original Black Rifle and given it a Western make over. The rifle features premium American walnut stock, forend and pistol grip. The upper and lower receiver are both made from color case hardened steel.
The rifle is chambered in .308 Win. The barrel is 16″ 4150 chrome moly-vanadium.
If you want one for Christmas you had better start saving. They are selling for $4,995.
I founded TFB in 2007 and over 10 years worked tirelessly, with the help of my team, to build it up into the largest gun blog online. I retired as Editor in Chief in 2017. During my decade at TFB I was fortunate to work with the most amazing talented writers and genuinely good people!

Given that the AR-10 was designed for aluminum, and as described, this is steel... how much does it weigh?
There was mob - Cherokee (? ) stocks i think that use to make magnificent exhibition grade stocks for semi's. 1 good thing - its not black, second is its steel ! I still would prefer a 20-22" barrel and long exhibition grade handguard
