The twist ?

It is in "straight pull" for the UK market.

And in .308 !!

I know the .308 NDM's are tack drivers with match ammo, I wonder what sealing the gas port and making it a straight pull bolt action does for the accuracy of the rifle. At least you don't have to worry about the free floated firing pin and match primers like this, still a shame you guy over there can't easily own a semi auto.


Wish we could get those polymer stocks easily over here in the US. I tried to buy one from Black Horse Arsenal and ended up just getting scammed out of 200$. Took my money, he told me I won't be receiving a stock or a refund. Bastard. Occasionally one pops up on gunbroker, but they want a stupid amount like 500$ for one.

Try Oleg at FSU Connections - tell him Brian sent you. Sure he can get the stocks for you.

ITAR?

Try getting US companies to export stocks/handguards/buttstocks....not even 70+ yaer old milsurp items.

I'm sure it works the other way too......?

PS...Nice rifle!!

When importing "iffy" stuff, you win some, you lose some.
A reputable dealer will make it right.
