If hogs run wild where you are and filling the freezer with baby backs and Boston butts sounds tempting, Lewis Machine and Tool has just the gun for you. LMT has co-branded a modular .308 with their paid spokesdude, Brian “Pig Man” Quaca. Bri, if you’re unaware, has a show on the Sportsman Channel, Pig Man: The Series. “Willing to take a hog by any legal means necessary, Pig Man scours the globe in search of huge pigs and various wild game with a vision to bring nothing short of the best entertainment into the living rooms of outdoorsmen and women across the nation.” OK then. Anyway, besides some cool tacticalia, the Pig Package rifle includes an engraved Leupold VX-R HIG 1.25 – 4 x 20 mm FireDot Pig Plex scope. All for an MSRP of $3,488.96. Press release after the jump . . .
