SSK Industries Rifle Chambered in 950 JDJ (a.k.a., “Fat Mac”)

Robert Farago - comments No comments

In the video below, Rock Island Auctions shoots the 950 JDJ Rifle. Why? Money! And, of course, because they can. And just so you know, “this behemoth was developed by the cartridge’s namesake and president of SSK Industries, J.D. Jones. It is 20x110mm Vulcan Cannon cartridge shortened and then necked down to .950 caliber. It’s so large it had to receive an ATF ‘Sporting Use Exception’ from the ATF to avoid be classified as a Destructive Device. Only three rifles were made by SSK to fire this mammoth round.”

Yes! Perfect for offing a wooly mammoth! If only our ancestors hadn’t driven them all over cliffs and into killing pits….

  1. “Red-dots did much better. And, for those with young eyes, iron sights run just fine also, be they Western-style or Soviet-style.” A.)Red Dot Sights I’m O.K. With B.)I’m 47.5yrs Of Age, I Need a Maginfied Optic C.)Soviet-Style Iron Backup Sights On My AR-15 Rifle? It’ll Be a Pleasant Day In HELL Before That’ll Ever Happen!!!

  2. I put an RX06 on my S&W M&P15. Co witnessed with the front blade through the ghost rings on my CARRY HANDLE (A must have accessory for me to make any AR look proper) Open eye target acquisition is good enough to drop prey on the run. I can reliably hit stuff out to 100 yards.

  3. 2 of my 4 ars have red dots

    ones a 16″ palmetto state armory mid-length heavy barrel 1/7 twist carbine with lower third cowitness

    the other is a hardened arms 10.5″ 1/7 twist pistol with 45 degree offset back up irons

    they both regularly shoot 1 to 2 moa to 100 yards and right around 3 moa or even less sometimes to 300 with the right ammo using the red dot

    both plenty good enough for greater than 95 percent of any jams i might find myself in

    the other 2 ars have a 1-4x primary arms and a 2-8x vortex

    they have only marginally better accuracy with scopes than the other two that have red dots…like i can get 1 hole groups at 100 yards and 5 inch groups at 300 again with the right ammo

    i spent considerably more money on the scopes versus the red dots to get only marginally better accuracy

    comparing the two scopes the 2-8x works just good enough as a spotting scope to 100 yards for .223 caliber holes

    advantage: 2-8x vortex

  4. Since you brought up laos and cambodia it was your commie buddies, those so called freedom fighters, that invaded both countries and killed anyone that opposed them.

    Admit it, dude. The only outrage you feel is that the US military stands between you and your antifa buddies throwing out the legal .gov of the US and replacing it with some hideous excuse for a commie .gov.

  5. Universal background checks would make this NICS problem worse. The fact that NICS gave approval despite being informed would seem to add fuel to conspiracy theories.

  6. I still think you should do a “World of Guns” review. I learned how to detail strip a 1911 without ever doing it before. I just ran through the procedure in game until I knew it frontwards and backwards then went to my friend whom owns one and said “let me try something!”

    It’s a great game to learn about real guns (about 140 different ones) and how they work. Silence these haters because it is more of a digital trainer than a game.

  7. Ms. Mangu-Ward’s article is refreshing in it’s simple yet complete explanation of the deaths related to firearms and the “we must do something” hysteria.
