Yeah. That's a thing. There are like 3 clone correct builds out there.

I don't understand guns much so I don't really understand what you did with it -- I'm more of a blade guy, silent and deadly -- but it looks lethal and pretty, fallout ranger.

Nice to hear from you, hope you're well.

Good looking gun, dude. I've always thought about building an NCR Service Rifle for years, but the Survivalist Rifle was always my favorite gun in-game.

I actually googled the survivalist rifle a while back and so other people make there own, don't know if one of them was you but really good versions out there. What caliber is that?

Looks nice you should carve in stuff in the wood.

Is that an m16?

Looks like an AR15 he rechambered to .50 Beowulf, which is fitting since the survivalist rifle itself was converted to a .50 caliber round in-game. It fired the same ammunition as the 12.7mm pistols and SMG.

Correct. Although not technically a conversion and purpose built.

I definitely don't have the heart for that. I've kicked around the idea of a clear vinyl sticker though.

How does it handle compared to .223 or an AKM's 7.62 recoil? Somewhere in between or does it feel more like a full cartridge like .30-06 or .308? I'm curious to know how different it feels to shoot.

Just leave the carving to some carver mang, it's like getting at tattoo for your gun, being the wooden pieces and an image of whatever

Amazing gun, did it cost you much on making it?

maybe you should get tattoos of the rifle on on your guns. then you can go to the beach all "check out these guns baby"

and the babes will be like "How does it handle compared to .223 or an AKM's 7.62 recoil? Somewhere in between or does it feel more like a full cartridge like .30-06 or .308?"

Feels roughly like a 20ga.

iirc about 1200, and 6 months waiting on parts.

Geez, it costs more than the usual price for survivalist rifles found in the market. Though I do understand because you made it like the one in the game! Cheers!

Not the customized one, but the branded ones like Kel Tec and Marlin.

Oh lol. There's nothing survival-y about this except the name.

How many bricks does it go through? Survivalist means shooting through buildings y know.

Seems to have a nice kick
