On the way: DERYA DYPA-12 9MM 12" PUMP Action Telescoping stock

[True Shadows]

I wonder why a Turkish company manufacturing firearms in the United States would use readily available Glock magazines and cater to the largest firearms market in the world instead of producing proprietary magazines for our relatively small market in Canada?

American's aren't buying these Turkish pumps... I'm fairly certain way more will be sold here than in the states.

I dunno about that. The USA has over 80m gun owners. They certainly will sell better on a per capita basis in Canada, but you only need 1 in 30 American gun owners to buy one and you'd have more guns sold than if every single PAL holder in Canada bought one.

Yes, Americans still have semi autos in droves. But not everyone wants a semi. These are threaded, so they'd make a good suppressor host (no action cycling noise when you shoot) as an example. Others just like pump actions. California has an assault weapon ban that greatly limits options.... lots of reasons why an American might buy this.

Trigger reach looks pretty long. Here's an AR for comparison:

IMO they're both ugly. Would love to get hands on both to see which feels better in my hands though, because I'm definitely buying one in a few months.

Might have to get some ET finger action/assist goin' on...also has a Highly approval rating from the spouses... {don't} ask me how I know ~ )

30% of the US population (102 million) live in states that restrict the sale of semi-auto rifles. That's triple the Canadian population alone. I laugh when people think we have a large Canadian firearms market and think we will buy a "crap ton" or something will "sell like hotcakes."

We have a long history of neither being true so it really is a mystery where guys get that from. We couldn't convince a distributor to buy 500 X-95 in .300blk because they thought they wouldn't sell them. They wouldn't make an assumption there they would be gauging off of previous sales.

Big difference between a $700 gun and a $3k gun though. Expensive guns have a tiny market compared to cheaper guns.

Anyways, back on topic. I like the look of the rifle with a telescoping stock. The gap between the grip and the trigger reminds me of the same configuration SKS rifles and 10/22s have when equipped with a pistol grip stock/chassis. Glock magazines are plentiful and relatively inexpensive.

Thanks for bringing these rifles in.
