Hey,

I just found and picked up one of these super cool rifles! When I ordered they had it up that there were less than 5 available brand new in the box. So that means that there are 3 or less available now. If you ever wanted a great looking copy of the venerable M1 Garand, this is your only option. The company has gone under now, so the limited amount of these produced make them collector's already! They were introduced at the SHOT show in 2015 and by the fall of 2017 they were out of business, so there would be very few made. I did some research on these and the reviews are a bit mixed. Most just complained about paying $700 US for one. I figure that even if it has some reliability issues out of the box, it is still just a 10/22 and very easy to work on and tweak until it runs perfectly!

Anyway, here's the link if anyone is interested. Google them in case you want more information. Oh, and mine is already in the mail in Canada. It looks like they aren't in the country on the website and I was expecting to have to wait until the Feb. import, but that's not the case. Order away and it will be in the mail to you in short order! With the shipping and exchange rate, my bill came to $1066 CDN to my door in ON.

Yes, it does. For looks, it has a floor plate attached to the bottom of the 10 round rotary mag. that looks the same as the original. Unfortunately, they don't have any extra of those special mags, but that's not really that big of a deal. No one can see the bottom of the rifle when you're shooting it anyway.

It has a newly manufactured steel reciever with the original scope mount holes, so you can still attach a scope just like a regular 10/22. Might try that out at some point.
 
Very cool! Congrats on your purchase. For me, I can see why they went under. At that price I am more likely to spend my money on a real one. But it is still really cool and I bet you'll enjoy plinking with it!

Interesting. How would it cycle with ,22L ?. I'm assuming it is still a semi-auto?

It's built off of a steel reciever 10/22 with a beefed up barrel attachment and comes with a JARD trigger pack set at about 2.5 lbs apparently. If you mean't actual 22L rounds and not 22 Lr rounds, probably not well just like any rifle chambered in 22 Lr would with 22 L rounds, if not marked specifically for both rounds.
