Yikes, anyone else seens these yet? If they can shoot well and use 10 round LAR mags, I'm in for one just to plink with.
 
Anyone know of a dealer that would be interested in trying a trial order of these. They actually look interesting. I bet a half-azzed Gunsmith could make them bedded nice for cheap. They have an AR on the site that looked interesting too.
 
As soon as someone sees one in Canada, could you let us know. I gots me an itchin' for a 223, and I have a 4X4 that I'm really satisfied with, so I wouldn't hesitate to buy one. As far as triggers go, the 4X4's are OK, and Riflebasix makes a nice one for about $100. I'm pretty sure the price for these should be quite good.
 
It's quite funny how they strip a round out of the magazine, a hinged plate at the bottom of the bolt drops down to catch on the round and push it forward.

If they come out with a more offhand friendly stock, it'll be even more appealing.

Very interesting... I've been thinking lately about a varmint rifle in .223/5.56. This would fill the bill quite nicely, assuming the accuracy is there...
 
Doesn't look like they come in left handed and the stock is ugly but I am still interested.
 
Does anyone know what basic model this gun is for replacing the stock with an aftermarket one?
