The one you'll see on the show and on the video is the one I built for him. Mine was there the whole time, but it doesn't make any footage.
The movement is insane to watch at 8000+ frames a second. But you can watch any gun shimmy and shake at those high frame rates.
His gun will cycle with the steel flash hider, but Jerry outshoots it due to the weight slowing down the action. So for all the shooting footage for the youtube video it's the aluminum one.
The bull barrels are all steel.
The TV show footage should have all steel, since he wasn't doing speed runs then.
Also, the three pieces of DEC tomtit radials fell off a few times from being stingy on epoxy, so Brock re-glued that on between the time I built it and we shot the youtube videos.
We also replaced the original cast run mount, as it was he'd on with two screws, but wasn't strong enough. The new dovetail version was miles better, but even it started to give up it's shape in the face of recoil toward the end.
Mine is still going perfectly fine though, since it's all steel aside from the flash hider.
I've put about 1000 rounds through mine so far.
So I think we need to revisit aluminum or steel for the scope mount instead of the cast pewter alloy for strength. Otherwise it's pretty great.
There'll be some good high speed footage of my ESB in action too.
