BERETTA BRX1 Ranch

I really have not been following some of these straight pull rifles that closely but saw an email mentioning these new models were either in Canada or arriving soon.

It looks like a nice compact rifle, available in 16 and 18". Anyone waiting on one of these?

It's quite expensive, but I'd bite if it had iron sights.

Thanks for finding this one, I'd be all over a 16" 308

My eyes are finally starting to get a bit stiff from age, but I still enjoy shooting certain types of iron sights and appreciate a minimalist lightweight rifle. It would not be that hard to add some sights to the rifle for the few left that prefer having them.

The modern micro red dots and 1x mirco prism's are so compact and lightweight these days that as much as I enjoy shooting irons I understand why manufactures are leaving them off.

Someone needs to start making a univeral front sight post similar to the NoDak Spud that left the market place to parts unkown years ago.....

Looks like they might have a sighted version for the Europeans. It's a multi-barrel system like many other Euro straight pulls.
