Lee-Enfield action plus .50 BMG barrel and you have something unique.
Can't post a pic as they keep coming up too big so here's the URL

Do have a read and a look you probably wont see one of these anywhere else

Seems a bit crazy to me. Wonder what the odds are of him firing it and seeing it blow up?

Apparently the silver bit is the breech plug (barrel screws off to load) and is supposed to be plenty strong enough and the Lee-Enfield, via an extended firing pin, only supplies the means of ignition and doesn't take any pressure at all, bit like (but not much !!) some of the WW II projectors.
