I already had the guys at IRUNGUNS bring a .17hmr over .410 in for me at the beginning of the year. So far it as been a great little rifle and the fit and finish are great.
I will post some pics soon.

How's the side to side at the hinge point?
The one Achilles heal the older Springfield CZ is varying play from slightly narrower hinge pin.
Example my 22 hornet/410 is pretty darn solid. However the 22 LR/410 has a tiny bit of movement right there.

Curious....

Edit: forgot to ask. Is yours drilled and tapped for optics mount ??
 
HI Jdschwass,

we are currently trying to secure an order, due to supply and demand we are on a backorder list to bring these in, we will update this thread as soon as we have actual timelines or stock in our inventory.

Does IRG read these posts? Or are we pissing into the wind? Radio silence isn't very encouraging...

Thanks so much for the update. At least now we know where we stand. I will wait patiently with anticipation.
Cheers.
 
My brother had a 22LR/410 Springfield M6 Scout back in the early 1990s. It is a hard gun to shoot well because of the trigger. We are just not used to that type of squeezing all your fingers. There is no fore end also. That being said, my brother did kill some pigeons on the fly in and around a cattle shelter.

While this TPS version has some upgrades like the 357 and interchangeable chokes, it still isn't a great plinking gun. It is a survival rifle, and not much more.

I recently bought a Chipmunk in stainless steel/synthetic with extra stock spacers in 22WMR. That will be my "truck" gun for emergencies.

I guess those last ten rabbits in my freezer died of heart attacks versus gunfire from my Springfield CZ M6???

Your Chipmunk rifle in magnum chamberings is just fine for your needs. Just like mine serve my needs equally as well.

Sold a few of the US made ones.
Asked Springfield about a 14" barrel version for Canada; they understood the appeal, but it would have been a NFA firearm in the US. More complex to manufacture and export.
I suspect the trigger guard is there to keep the lawyers happy.
Without a trigger guard and with shorter barrels, they would fold in half - a neatly fit into a tool box, knapsack, etc. Handy little gun to have about.
These aren't intended to be general hunting firearms. I think increasing the caliber and gauge isn't the way to go. Stay with .22 (LR, WMR, Hornet) and .410.
From the standpoint of an emergency gun, .22WMR might be best. Ammunition can be had in fmj, light and heavier expanding choices. Even .22WRF for less destructive effect.

Don't expect that the barrels are going to be regulated for a single point of impact.

Only if it is made as a complete gun. If they sold the BBL assemblies as an upgrade then they could be export with a licence only and no need to register them under the NFA.
