Canadian made "black" rifle

Canadian - I like the thought already. No AK mags. STANAG.

This is a great place to start and echos my thoughts. Extensible and modular from the ground up, with support for existing aftermarket. And I agree about previous comments, this is nothing new, and more is known about the industry and engineering of it now, more so than ever before. SIMPLE is good, basic principals can go a long way.

I'll edit this into my first post also.


I would like to see a complete modular system.
Also, both traditional and bullpup layouts, with many parts common to both layouts.
Something that can be swapped around and customized, and that has a lot of parts already made.
This obviously means using a lot of AR parts, but yet NOT an AR.

*AR-15 fire control group (FCG) parts (trigger, safety, etc). These parts are common, cheap, reliable, and approved as not FA.
*AR-15 barrel dimensions, but without barrel extension. Bolt head and barrel extension to have larger beefier lugs. Perhaps 3 lugs?
*Bolt head to have a larger diameter head to allow for larger dia cartridge heads to be chambered.
*Completely new bolt carrier, that cannot be deemed a "variant".
*AR-15 pistol grip.


*Short stroke gas system
*Adjustable gas system
*Recoil spring to telescope into rear of bolt carrier, to allow for a side folder or bullpup design
*"Classic" wood (like AK-47 or VZ52/57), or modern Aluminum and polymer. Ability to swap parts back and forth.
*Aluminum to have M-Lok mounts. Wood to be old-school.
*


Thoughts?

I wonder if BCL and ATRS got together and made a modern varmint en masse... Combine the production power with the excellent design. Probably never happen, but one can dream. I think if they could pump them out at 1500ish they couldn’t make them fast enough.

No kidding, seriously CanAmm being open about it, could definitely crowd fund a design and build, for us all, by us all.

Agreed. Crowd fund it.

LOL at some of the pie in the sky ideas in this thread.

I’d be ok if it looks like a Jard as long as it works.

Why the love for AK mags? Just cause they look good? Curved mags feed x39 better for sure, but who cares when you can only put 5 in there.

I like the crowd fund the design idea... sure I will pay to design a rifle... then I will pay to buy the rifle... it only cost me $1000 to design, and $999 to buy... but it is under $1000?

[whitney]

Yes 😎

It really doesn't interest me if it can't have 10 rd mags that are Stanag design. Folding stock too. That's it. Oh yeah, .223 or .308 calibre. That's it.

Before this gets out of hand, I AM NOT ASKING FOR MONEY!
