Straight Pull AK rifles

[Ohno]

Has anyone heard anymore on those straight pull AK rifles that were supposed to be almost ready for market, but were just waiting on magazine approval. That dealer is no longer on the board and I'm curious to know what happened with this project. It has been almost a year now since we last heard anything on these.

Very good question. Everything about them has evaporated.

rcmp classification limbo as with most new rifles since 2013

It is for sale on their website yet I can't be for sure what the hold up is.
They claimed that there was an FRT # already for the rifle itself but we're waiting on the determination of the mag capacity

Big post full of suspense was gonna rock all the red rifle fans socks, speculation was an ak variant that was not a variant and would be Canada legal. turned out to be a straight pull not a semi. company got bashed way harder then necessary

A dealer (Trigger Wholesale) made a big deal about a magical new tactical rifle guaranteed to knock the s**t right out of your ass. Then someone leaked info that lead us to believe it was a Tantal (AK variant) that would be NR. Turned out to be a straight pull bolt action for $1000 and pretty much everyone was disgusted after thinking Canada would finally have an affordable AK that would be non restricted to boot only to learn it was an abortion.

There's some things you just can't unsee

A straight pull Dragunov would have been much more popular.

These are the pics on their FB site... Apparently the actual SPBAR rifle.

Personally, I'd rather see a sbr pump rifle.

I'd honestly buy one. But not a spba AK... Not when the SKS and VZ go bang bang bang bang bang reload repeat and the spba gos bang #### bang #### bang #### bang #### bang ####. I dont want to bang ####. Your one forearm would be huge though...

A straight pull Dragunov would have been much more popular.

Sooo ###, if the tantal had actually materialized...

It would have been prohibited... Cuz it is an AK variant.

I wonder if Tac. Imports focused on the foreign market instead.

You mean Trigger Wholesale?
