New! Semi-Auto .223 Chimera Rifle!

[VictoryRidgeCS]

Just landed! The new .223 Rem gas operated semi-automatic Chimera rifle. Get them now while they are still available.

Yes! It takes STANAG and other AR-15 pattern magazines.

The firearm ships with a 18.5-inch barrel (quick twist rate 1:8, thread pitch 1/2×28), two standard 5/10 AR-magazines, includes a Picatinny rail on the receiver, muzzle brake, cleaning kit.

As the Chimera PB-223 makes its Canadian debut, it promises to address the evolving needs of precision, ergonomics, and modularity in rifle design. NOTE: this is not the Australian push-button version, but instead a standard semi-automatic.

This is a Non-Restricted Firearm​

Turkish firearms manufacturers are probably laughing their way to the bank.

Still not sure I trust this manufacturer.

Weight is 9lbs? Is that correct?

Ya she is THICC.

Balance feels similar to the Ruger PC Carbine with the weight slightly forward.

So unnecessarily bulky and heavy

Cool

It sure is a good thing that the government killed all the domestic firearms manufacturers that sprung up after the 2020 AR Ban. Now we can fund Erdogan.

 

[Bigcrigger]

Definitely not a looker.

Is this a "push button" semi? as in it ejects a casing and you push a button each time to feed the next cartridge?

Thanks for asking.

TLDR is NO

Longer answer is: The model you see online reviews for are the Australian variant which is a push-button action. Each shot ejects automatically, but requires a push of a button to close the action and chamber another round.

THIS IS NOT THAT MODEL - Our version for sale now is straight forward semi-auto

Is it the same shotgun style design where barrel is removeable?

Yes, the operation is very much a semi-auto shotgun.

Watching a video, it looks like the pic rail is attached to the barrel and slides back over the receiver. This could yield better results than the Akdas Alcor.

That's great actually, it means POI/POA will not shift after reassembly. I may consider buying it because of it actually.

Yes indeed! Defintiely a good feature.

The spec sheet states 9lbs but the right up states 6.3lbs. Me thinks the 9lbs is probably shipping weight. Can VRS would check this?

Any chance of this model with the "scary" chassis being imported?

PB223 "Tactical" Pistol grip with collapsible stock

That stock looks very similar to my old Alpharms shotgun stock. I found the LOP with the folder was ridiculously long. You can remove the folding mech. and it just becomes a more reasonable adjustable stock.

Something to consider if you’re after the folder specifically
