BCL SRV2 Siberian 5.56 Nato 18.6" Non-Restricted

[Can-down]

Can't someone just make one of these but build it like an SKS ?

Really simple, solid and it works.

But no, everyone has to be clever and innovative.

It's like the T34 vs the Panther.

The Panther was a beautiful thing based off the T34, but over engineered and thus not capable of being mass produced.

A simple thing, that is reliable, that's it. No more is needed at this point.

I'd guess most people would want a top rail on the receiver for easy optics.

The Templar might meet your definition. It's a bit heavy, but it's built durable like a tank, and so far I haven't heard of any shaking apart or busting pistons. Hopefully the Siberian will also be reliable!

Anyone do a torture test on it ?

I looked at it before, but didn't see much in terms of in depth reviews, would like to have a good thorough review on it from an experienced hand.

You can have any colour you like as long as its black.

More details on the Black Rifle thread.

The Siberian will have a well secured gas block and two piece, flexible piston to prevent piston snapping, and it has a long charging handle panel to seal the receiver against debris with the bolt forward, so hopefully it will prove resilient. BCL has had generally good feedback in their QC and customer support on their "tactical-ish" Bison bolt guns, and the few Coyotes released before the AR15-ish ban hammer are treasured by their owners, so I have hope for the Siberian!

From the look at the pictures, I'd say it won't eject properly if fired fully folded, but that's more of a novelty then anything, and it will still fold for transport nicely. If you really wanted to fire folded, the stock attaches via 1913, so you could probably find another folding 1913 stock that won't impede the port.
