Very cool! Wouldn't the 308 cases actually be necked "up" though?

Brass was probably shortened to the point of needing to be necked down. TD

 

[Three50seven]

ahh...youre probably right. didn't even think of that!

Have you ever seen the AMT Baby Automag pistol? It's chambered in 22 Long Rifle. It's also known as "Dirty Harry's Plinker". It's been stated that 1000 were to be manufactured, but actual production numbers are unknown. It's been suggested that quite a bit less than 1000 were made. One collector said that AMT started the Baby Automag serial numbers at BAM0101. But, other AMT collectors have questioned this.

Looks like a RST4 bolt in that baby automag?
Nice looking pistol

A letter from ruger over an auto mag reproduction with a rst4 frame.
