Is that hammerhead a California compliance thing?

I haven't seen the hammerhead before. It looks a bit less silly than some other CA compliant mods.

I just don’t get it. I like the case-hardened look on a Winchester. Looks odd on a stainless barreled AR-10. Great scope. What is the purpose of the full picatinny rail? If the customer changes their mind and wants to add backup sights, or night vision? You are using a fancy case hardened finished AR-10 for night hunting?

The case hardening looks nice but seems out of place without wood furniture.

Nice build but that "grip" is an abomination against humanity! :eek:

So, the upper and lower are steel? Or can the case hardening be applied to aluminum? If so, that's something I didn't know.

I suppose I subscribe to the “pretty is, as pretty does” mantra and would reasonably expect that this shoots exceptionally well, but what is the goofy grip about?
Is it a prone shooting thing?

It's a Ca. featureless build...no protruding pistol grip. There's all kinds of iterations of the faux grip.

Love it! How's this Bad Mamma Jamma Shoot?
But, Why No Shell deflector atleast, as far as a Forward Assist goes, I could careless, as I have NEVER Ever had the need to use one.
Now the "Hammerhead" grip thing, Dam what an abomination that thing is. LOL
