Nebula 45 from way back

I got a program which enabled me to scan thru older web pages. Ran across this, still on the server. Something rather different. This rifle was modified from it's original cosmetic format, by the owner. I've long since lost touch with the rifle and owner. I did deliver a great Tundra 45 Magnum as well (mentioned in the text I think I recall) - it's on another computer.

Hope you enjoy seeing something that's "out there" in more ways than one! winking smiley

Also shows what you can do with meduim power rifles.

Interesting. I'd like to see "before" pix that show what exactly James modified.

Personally, I like this Nebula much better. JMHO. I wouldn't dream of modifying any of my Barnes rifles, cosmetically or otherwise.

That's a wild looking rifle! Hmmmm... maybe I should get some paint and camo the Maverick? Nah!

I can do without the stripes but that's a neat design. A short rifle and even a cocking handle. You don't find that on the rack. I really like the unique designs that combine form and function. We can do better with slugs though! more innocent

The Nebula Jim linked is sweet too. I wish I could have one of each but then they wouldn't be one of a kinds.

Well, um, yyyyeeeeaaaahhhh.....

Not that I'm critical, and it is his gun, but........ Tiger stripes?

Wonder what his motivation was, and why he picked that pattern?

Now Dan,

I do believe those a Zebra stripes. Does that bring it all together for ya? winking smiley

I don't know. And I believe the gun has now moved on to another owner. Don't know any more about it. I delivered the 45 Tundra Magnum, and never heard any more about that one either.

However; I have the old pics and the old web pages.

Zebra stripes?

Jim I actually own the Nebula 2. Not a bad little gun, plus I can shot in my back yard with it. Since it is not a cannon.

fine shooting , i always liked the look of a the nebula , there are very few futuristic looking designs that are classic enough not to date , if that makes sense, but the nebula is def one of them , not sure the paint is to my taste , but as its not my rifle , it hardly matters , the shooting is exceptional though . well done indeed.
