Nice to see the 7.62mm Robinson Improved.

A propos not a lot, but I knew Russell Robinson and his daughter and grand daughter were at my place for supper back in the summer. I used to visit Russell back in the 1980s after he retired to Arizona and he still had a garage full of experimental Salvo ammo that he used to let me help myself to.

I was looking at his .50 calibre pressed steel anti-material rifle in the NFC collection only last month and thinking just how far ahead of his time Russell was.
