Received an email from Pardini USA about their new sporting rifle the TR20. By the time I got to their web site only 2 -410mm barrels were left. 10 minutes later there was one! They shipped next day and after receiving it, my gunsmith threaded the barrel and attached a picitiny rail on the bottom.
The rifle is basically a SP pistol with a 410mm match barrel and a bunch of 3D printed carbon fiber plastic.
It is super light for a sporting gun. The stock is very ergonomical and adjustable but butt ugly in 3 D printing. i wish the grip would have been separate from the butt stock, as it is to thin for my liking and the plastic feel is a real turn off. I will address that problem next week. It has a nice aluminum shroud, but why didn’t they machine any m-lock or key mods for some accessory attachments, just some cutsie cut outs. I had my gun smith drill and tap a few holes so I could get a rail on the bottom. The trigger if is Exceptional, what you expect from a Pardini target pistol and fully adjustable. There is a full length rail on top for your favorite optic or red dot. Dual charging handles is a nice touch. The 410mm barrel is free floating attached by one screw into the block. Ships with 2-10 round mags that they print as well. The gun comes with a muzzle brake, but again in 3D printed plastic that is a turn off. I put my Sparrow can on it to quiet things down.
so i was going to try several different brands of sub ammo, but first up was SK plus and it shot great and functioned perfectly without missing a beat no jams or misfeeds. I think with some more trigger time, this will be my new squirrel gun and may even try some extreme field target with it. Did I need this? Absolutely not, but it sure goes good with my Pardini pistols.:)

That is a simple but efficient stock design. After seeing it, I'm surprised that no one has done that before. Good luck with your project. I know how exciting it is to have one, as I'm doing a cz right now.
