Do you own a Swiss Arms rifle? (black special, classic green, etc)

[Nordland]

Near future buy for me.

 

[Roughneck12]

Classic Green

 

[guess_kto]

I am just curious to find out if these are widely available or if the owners of them are just very vocal.

Vote if you've got one!

I'm working on it. but it is not cheap.

 

[vondnik]

Had one... hated it... sold it

I don't think you ever owned one.

 

[Hoss]

Yes i do have one. Mine is a black special with a B+T rail

 

[Otokiak]

I do ... I stole it for the price I paid ... was a bluestar(smurf color) so I had it repainted in OD green with a leupold scope to boot ... I love this rifle ... named it after my gal-friend SILU ... as she's ###xxy ...

you calling me a liar?

The only advantage that the swiss rifle has is the fact that it's not restricted. But there is nothing that this rifle can do that can't be made better by a well tuned AR for thousands less...

 

[mrsmitty]

14.3 inch Carbine

 

[F22_RaptoR]

Nope, but my friend does. DAMN its a nice rifle, thats all I can say!


I would love to get one, but I seem to have weird priorities when it comes to guns (I dont have a rifle caliber rifle yet, I am working on my USC45 to UMP45 clone project)

30,000 round MINIMUM service life on all main components is one I can think

and the ability to run sustained ultra dirty.
and the ability to run sustained without lube.

I had a Black Special. I liked it enough to get a 1/7 Green Classic too!

 

[Seth Gecko]

I have a Black Target Special:

Black special here

 

[jjohnwm]

Had a Black Special Target, then traded it for a Classic Green so that I would have the irons as well as the scope.

At risk of not being believed, I've gotta say that I don't quite "get" the almost cult-like following these rifles seem to inspire. Yes, I like it, it's accurate, fun to shoot, and non-restricted...but that describes a lot of guns that I own. I have a fair number of guns that I expect to keep permanently, but the Swiss is one of the many others that I'll play with for a few years and then sell.

 

[C Broad Arrow]

Sure I have one... doesn't everyone? 14.3 carbine... after "Heat" how could you not own one.

 

[123decay]

14.3 Carbine. First gun purchase, and no regrets!

 

[titan033]

Full size here!!. It is my never sell toy.

 

[NeitArms]

 

[Brainless]

17.9" Classic Green

 

[Roughneck12]

Where did you get the stock adaptor for that? I would like to put a collapsing stock on my PE90.
