Steyr Scout Stainless Steel Canadian .308Win

Out of the 15 manufactured, 12 were distributed to those two dealers. Minus 3 that were bought by employees, 9 will be sold to customers.
 
Interesting rifle. I really like the HK-style drum sight, and think that's the best feature of this variant. Does anyone know if these rifles will come with any additional accessories like e.g., a fitted case with identification that this was submitted to the Ranger program for consideration or documentation that indicates the special nature of the rifle?
 
Scout Steyr never was equiped with a set trigger, but they have an awsome direct trigger adjustable from 2 to 4 pounds... JP.

wrong, it is an option and has been for many years.

no, you should note what the manual says about the direct trigger as well.


6.2 Direct Trigger
The weapon has been factory-set
to optimal trigger characteristics.
Thus, the shooter must not
perform any changes or
adjustments

Wow all gone.

Nicely done! Definitely a unique rifle to add to a collection. I'm not surprised that they went so fast... in truth, it seemed the price was pretty much in line with what a new Steyr Scout sells for when available in Canada, and I thought the limited release nature would have prompted a higher price point.

e.g. Reliable is listing the standard Scout for $2500 (http://www.reliablegun.com/js/steyr...pod-5rds-built-in-folding-reserve-iron-sights)

The Scout comes with the direct trigger witch is not user adjustable. As nearly all Steyr rifles, it can be retrofitted with the set trigger but there's no option straight from factory, the set trigger needs to be ordered separately.

It is an option and always has been, their own website confirms this.

I agree as an option but never was standard, both my Scouts came with the direct trigger, i called Steyr and they told me that Jeff Cooper while bullding the Scout wanted a non set trigger of 35 to 40 ounces as standard Scout configuration, i did try to buy one with a set trigger, no cigars i would had to do a special order...
