Wish I could help but the only way to contact the makers is via the CastBoolets forum. AFAIK there are no email or phone numbers available.

I was wrong they are .50 cal brownings. Found a picture of one in a B17 with finger triggers. This is a Browning M-2 .50-caliber machine gun along the side of a B-17 bomber, also known as a waist gun. It was used to shoot at attacking fighters. The adjacent photo that shows the top of the B-17 contains an exterior view of the gun. Ammunition for the gun was kept in the wooden box in the background and moved to the gun through the flexible feed belt. The metal ammunition box on the left, labeled "50 CAL" fed the machine guns in the ball turret that hang below the fuselage. The device with the knobs at the back of the machine gun is a Sperry Gyroscope Company K-13 Compensating Sight. The gunner would use the large dial on the side to enter airspeed and the sight would take into account where the gun was pointing and how it was being moved and show the gunner where to aim to appropriately lead his target. The Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress was an iconic U.S. heavy bomber during World War II. This B-17, “Yankee Lady”, was built by the Vega Division of Lockheed Aircraft Corporation at Burbank, California and was delivered to the USAAF on July 16, 1945. It did not fly any combat missions during World War II and was placed into storage after the war. In 1946 this aircraft was transferred to the U.S. Coast Guard, had guns and turrets removed, and flew air-sea rescue and iceberg patrol missions as a PB-1G. During some flights it carried an air-droppable, 27 foot long, 3300 pound wooden lifeboat under the fuselage for rescuing people stranded at sea. This aircraft was retired from the U.S. Coast Guard in 1958. In 1959 the plane was purchased by a metals smelting company and was used for aerial surveys. In 1966, it was sold to another company and used as an air tanker to fight forest fires and apply pesticides on crops and trees. During 1969 the aircraft was one of five B-17s flown to Hawaii and used in the filming of the 1970 film Tora! Tora! Tora! In 1986, the Yankee Air Force/Yankee Air Museum purchased the plane and started a comprehensive restoration. The plane’s first flight after the restoration was in 1995. The aircraft (N3193G) has been painted in the markings of a typical B-17G assigned to the 381st Bombardment Group (Triangle L), 8th Air Force flying out of RAF Ridgewell in England in late 1944. This color scheme is a memorial to the late Joseph Slavik who flew 35 missions as a pilot with the 381st. Mr. Slavik and his brother Stephen made a significant financial contribution to the Yankee Air Force that helped purchase the plane. Yankee Lady is a B-17G-110-VE and has US Army Air Force serial number 44-85829. Seen at the Aerospace Expo hosted by the Toledo Public Schools Aviation Center at the Eugene F.

Sorry I can't help but think that the winning sculpture was chosen more for the name than the skill in creating it.

In my mind using a crossbow is no different than using a firearm. When I was a kid, crossbows were not legal for archery season. Now it seems almost every state has made them legal for archery season in an attempt to increase participation in hunting..

Side effect of all the AI pictures and videos that are spreading like a virus across the internet. If something doesn't change, in 5 years no one will be able to take any photo or video on the internet at face value.

Radio’s first Lone Ranger, George Steinus, left the show early and became a respected film director named George Seaton. Earle Graser took the role from May 1933 until his untimely death in 1941; Ranger announcer Brace Beemer stepped into the title role until the show left the air in 1956. English-born actor John Todd played Tonto throughout. Radio Hall of Fame inductee Fred Foy became announcer from 1948 until the end. https://www.radiohalloffame.com/lone-ranger#:~:text=Radio's first Lone Ranger%2C George,left the air in 1956.

I shoot a lot of BP so Mobil 1 red synthetic grease inside. Before each use of the day I put a drop or two of Mobil 1 Synthetic 0W-30 Racing Oil on the bolt extension and on the sides of the carrier. I use Mobil 1 racing Oils because they have the most anti-wear additives. A quart will last a lifetime

See my post above.

The part that ticks me off is how both sides shout"He had a loaded gun and TWO FULL Magazines." A statement that has zip Point $4!t to do with anything. https://gunsamerica.com/digest/alex-pretti-shooting-trumps-idiotic-comments-2a-consistency/
