So the ross rifle was good for something after all.....i guess because of its bolt action the conversion was easy actually.....
thanks for the info....ive had great distain for bolties since aquiring my semi collection....

I do have a little conversion story for you however.....

John Browning was one of the finest inventors of all types of dirarms.
One sunday, he and the boys from the Ogden utah gun factory where he made his weapons, were out at the range doing what many americans do shooting at targets for fun...and sport.
Sitting watching a shooter laying prone in the grass, John browning saw hat the grasses would bend in front of the muzzle when a shot was fired.....
Well this abruptly ended the shooting match, as they all piled into their buggies and wagons and headed back to the snmall factory to develope this revelation of the boss.....
By nightfall that night, they had attached a flat plate with a bullet sized hole drilled in it, to the front of a lever action wnichester....
Using a mechanical linkage back to the lever of the rifle, they had developed the worlds first machine gun in an afternoon!

Here is an illustration of the original prototype rifle that john browning constructed out of a lever action winchester.



Here you go for your viewing pleasure... JM browning is a hero of mine.

yeah there is also one other 7.62 mm device that not alot of info exists about it other than that it existed. I don't have the name of it off hand though. Glad you guys liked the thread if you have any other odd ball weapons you want to showcase feel free to post them.
