Okay! It's official. I'm addicted. Sick and addicted. Here's my latest crazy idea.Get a Disco refurb from Norm. Get the Disco's tube cut down to just in front of the barrel band (stock barrel band placement). Cut the barrel flush with the tube cap. Tune it to get as many shots at 20 fpe (14.3 CPHP @ 800 fps) as possible. Slap a short-ish TKO LDC on the end. Put a lightweight Hawke 4x mildot scope on the top.Voila! You have a Discovery carbine! It's not practical, nor very quiet. But it would be sooo cool!

Okay, well, I took my BNM'd Disco and shortened the barrel and shroud. Tell me what you think? The air tube is still the same length but, after having the BNM shroud stick out 6" past the air tube, it feels amazing.That ugly guy in the pictures is the kid from down the street that I got into shooting.Oh, he's sitting right here. He says he's gorgeously handsome. And a great shot to boot. But, of course, I taught him all that he knows.Anyway...
