Just when you think you have seen it all and there can’t be any more bad ideas around you run across something like this. I’m sorry but in my opinion this is just UGLY. And a whole list of other derogatory adjectives.

All it needs is a picture of Elvis engraved on it and a purple velvet gun case and it will be complete!

If my mind isn’t playing games on me, I thought that he also made a takedown 76 awhile back.

I know several people that have Turnbull restorations of old Winchesters and Colts. This rifle should fit right in with their collections.

That "pimped out" gun reminds me of the stuff they confiscate from time to time from the Mexican drug lords.

I like it. A more traditional look with steel and walnut for the discerning ar shooter.

Our objective in creating the TAR-10 was to show that the AR platform is more than just a military rifle. We wanted to emphasize that these types of rifles can be made to look like any other custom rifle in terms of appeal,” commented Turnbull. The rifle, as sold, was equipped with a Zeiss 1.5-6x42mm Victory HT scope. Regular production Turnbull TAR-10 rifles will be the same as this special SHOT Show rifle minus the elaborate engraving and presentation-grade wood.

I belive they accomplished what they set out to do. Job well done
as well as he donated the profits to a worthable cause.
