Has anyone ever seen or handled these before. They sure seem sweet. I do love the Swiss k31s this would make for a real nice addition.

Awesome find. I didnt even know those existed.

No Canadian distributor

Wonder what the prices are like...

I believe they make each rifle to order. There isn't a Canadian distributor but it is relatively easy to import rifles into Canada privately, and it wouldn't surprise mr if Kynx were willing to export to you if you wanted one.

If you like straight pull rifle but want something different from the Blaser R93/R8 or the Merkel Helix, you may want to look at:

Lynx
Heym SR-30
Steel Action HS
Rossler Titan 16
Chapuis Rols
Strasser RS
Browning Maral

There may be others, those are just the ones that come to mind

Straight-pulls all seem a bit over-complex, heavy and expensive. I'm not sure what the upside is...a slightly faster second shot?

they are offering it in 375 ruger ....

Meh, the "light" comes in around 8lbs...

It does make for fast follow ups. Mostly just a interesting and fine piece of engineering.
