Benelli MR 1 in the wild.

That's just a Beretta RX4 Storm.

Hopefully the barrel will be long enough to non-restrict classify. Even then they may be prohib.
Can't wait to find out!

 

[ranger_dave]

Explain to me why they would be prohib. There is absolutely no reason for it to be prohib. It is not a variant of a named prohib and it is not a converted auto or a full automatic rifle. So it can't be prohib, only restricted due to barrel length or non restricted.

It uses essentially the same gas system as the M1014. But yeah, the trigger-guard and the stock are kinda weird. I like the look of the magwell, though.

i still want one, so does my wife

 

[SIGGER]

Pass. That gun looks awful

 

[Crossbones]

I like it. But if I were to get it I would try to get the longer magazine as it improves the overall aesthetics of the rifle.

That stock angle is terrible...

There were pics of the RX-4 storm (Same basic design) having an adjustable stock and rifle stock, both had much better angles.

There was also talk of 20 inch barrels...... not recently tho

I want one. I like the looks generally, but no pistol grip please.

That's what I would call not nearly better enough...

With the extending/collapsing stock it just about makes the grade as "just plain ugly" but without, I would call it "beyond ugly".

Of course ugly is in the eye of the beholder...if it outperforms other guns in the same chambering, great.

But it won't, so what's the point?
