browning maral

Years ago, I was told by a Browning full line dealer that if I gave them the code (item number) they could order in products from the international website. Maybe call Browning Canada and get some info from them on the subject.
 
Interesting gun! From the appearance, I assumed this was just another manufacturer jumping on the straight-pull bandwagon a-la-Blaser, but the spring-loaded bolt is a different twist. De-cocking safety is nice also.
 
Buy George, me thinks me likey.
Now to practice wiggling me ears and make an app's for the
wiggle the ears, pull the bolt back mode.
Then again, it's so close to being a semi, why not lose the big
cocking knob?
 
It's not really a new concept for Browning. They offered the straight pull action Acera back some years ago the North American market...it was a dud on these shores and removed from our catalogs within 1-2 years tops. This "new" Maral is essentially the same rifle but with the addition of the BAR's return spring components.
 
Is it a semi-auto wanting to be a bolt action or a bolt action wanting to be a semi-auto? I wonder if the bolt can be removed for cleaning/ bullet seating depth? My first impression is "no".

That big cocking knob looks like it came off my snow blower. ;)
 
burnt_servo has there been any serious replies from a Browning Dealer for your quest?
Curious how Browning Canada is reacting to this.

I was going to do this in about 3-4 weeks time when I had a better grasp on how much my tax refund cheque was going to be .

I have next week off and I was going to make some phone calls ..........

like vlt79 had mentioned ,I had heard something about browning being able to order stuff from Europe ........ but who to call ? can a person deal direct with browning ? and if not which dealer to deal with ?

I'm sure I can't be the only guy out there wanting to do this .

and finally the maral is a new rifle ... is it in the rcmp database yet ?

if a guy was going to order a bar in 9.3x62 , it shouldn't be a issue as the rifle already exists in Canada , just not that particular caliber .... with the maral is it going to have to be "inspected" by the rcmp possibly a frt # issued ?
