Bula Defense Systems XM21 raw and finished.

I am just amazed at the before and after appearance of Bula's XM21.
Photo shows an XM21 with a raw forging and a gas cylinder and raw forging.
Whatta Hobby!

Lots of steps between the raw forging and the final finished receiver/gas cylinder. Sincerely. bruce.

I would like to thank John 4570 govt for selling me the XM21 barreled action which was the base for this rifle. Haven't quite decided on which optic to mount.
This ended up being all Bula except for stock, sling and SEI vortex and most importantly, one of Hawk's fine AMBI kits.
