If price isn't a I'm in.

Ok, this is the best looking post ban pcc. I’ll buy one of your Amish uzis if it’s not priced absurdly.

Finally something not Turkish

Lol, that's the first thing I was looking for as well. But this isn't a semi-auto, no need for a bolt hold-open that must be released to close the bolt; would that not imply that one of those two buttons/switches in front of the pistol grip is a magazine release, while the other functions to release the pump/bolt from their forward hopefully-locked position?

Looks like an AR'ish style safety and a mag release button to me?
The action release on most of my pump action is not a bolt hold open, it's a way to unlock the action without pulling the trigger.

Q: Can we get a folding stock?
A: Theoretically yes, but practically no. We did not want to over complicate the design and inflate cost. The entire action is contained in the upper receiver and the stock tube is just there to host a stock.

That's good to know, makes it a lot easier to design a folding stock that will interface with the safety in a way similar to what BCL did with the howitzer and get a folder on a short barrel that's still N.R.

Right you are! The second one there must indeed be the safety. You'd think that over 60 years of playing with guns would have led me to remember that most of them have safeties, but...oops!

I didn't mean to confuse a semi-auto's bolt release and a pump's lock release, sorry if my explanation on that point was not clear.

So...yes, it does seem to appear that the gun has no pump lock release...so it's the same non-intuitive non-locking non-pump-shotgun-type system as the Derya? Whoosh! Hear that? That's the sound of my interest in this gun evaporating. Back to the Schmeisser.

I have updated the Q and A post as some of the answers changed after I heard back from the manufacture.

Watching this one closely...

Really interested in this rifle, I was sold on the Schmeisser but now I'm going to hold off and wait.

 

[Unholysavage]

I pre-ordered the Schmeisser but have a soft spot for pumps and will be following this closely.

Is there any rubber or over-molding on the pump handle? I don't see any flaring that could act as a hand stop, and the texturing doesn't appear to be very aggressive.

Looks like the trigger is proprietary, what sort of quality/pull weight are we looking at? One of the big selling points for the Schmeisser was the AR-compatible trigger. I'd say that I've become a trigger snob but my Taipan evo scout came with an awful 9lb trigger and I was happy to have the option of swapping it for a TT.

How does this take down for cleaning? Is the receiver open at the back to allow for using a cleaning rod?

I like what I see, looking forward to checking one out when they get here.

Thank you for giving us options to look at. Definitely something to keep an eye on.

We began this project after reaching out to KR-Weapons in October of 2024 to see about getting some of their semi-autos into the country. Unfortunately it was prohibited in OIC #2. Afterwards it quickly became apparent that there was a gap in our current offerings.

The brain behind this is Rostislav Kudláček. You may have seen his design, the Pistollo 77 being featured this past IWA.
While the price is not yet solidified it will be in the coming weeks.

ETA is Q2 2027.

We offer the community an opportunity to ask questions in this thread and we will do our best to answer. If I cannot answer I will reply back with the answer from the manufacture.

Any way that we could get a 1913 Pic rail adapter for stocks instead of the AR buffer tube?

 

[Can-down]

Being able to bolt on both a rail and a buffer tube receiver would be nice.

My guess the fixed stock keeps it non-restricted. With this regime, and corrupted cops, it's too risky to have it any other way.

As long as you don't clam on a folding stock it should be fine, but I see and agree with you that anti's seem to see every thing in shades of "ever brown" and are just itching to drop the ban hammer on anything they can!

Meanwhile, there is this new non restricted offering that comes with the factory folding stock non attached and non restricted, an owner can bolt on a fixed stock and maintain status but if you bolt on a folder it needs to be registered as restricted.

At the end of the day maybe it's best to let the designer stay with a buffer tube setup and let end users adapt....
