Thoughts? Very Krag–Jørgensen like with that side-loaded magazine.

S16 light weight rifle

With the S16 VOERE offers a handy and light weight rifle that accepts AR-15 type magazines. A light weight 20” steel barrel in a carbon fiber wrapping helps to reduce the weight to just under 2 kilos or 4 pound 6 ounces.

A permanently attached muzzle brake helps further reducing the already low recoil of the 222 Rem., 223 Rem., 300 Whisper and 300 AAC Blackout cartridge in this light weight bolt action rifle.

The S16 comes with a two lug bolt yet only 60° opening angle, which allows for fast operation of the bolt, and a 2 position firing pin safety. Simply press the safety lever down to engage the safety or up to be ready to fire. A red and a white dot on the bolt shroud indicate the safety condition of the rifle. The two stage trigger brakes crisp at 2 kilos or 4 pound 6 ounces respectively.

One characteristic feature of the S16 is the laterally attached magazine. This allows for easy reloads, especially when shooting in prone position, and accepts basically all AR-15 type magazines on the market.
Depending on the design of the magazine follower, it will also work as a last round bolt hold open.

The bolt catch is attached to the left side of the action. Just press the button to extract the bolt.

Also the cheek rest can be adjusted in height by using either a 3mm Allen key or size 15 Torx key.

The length adjustable stock can be fixed in 5 positions by pressing the quick adjustment button on the right side of the stock.

Voere company whether it was in Germany in the past or Kufstein Austria has always had an eye for innovation.
They pioneered caseless ammunition and firearms in the past, plus were the first to produce the AM-180 carbine.
A 22 LR full auto SMG primarily for law enforcement.
These are just a short list thier older projects.
This fine little rifle is very light and the side loading is very intelligent. One heck of a nice varmint rifle if you plan on covering alot of ground rather quickly.

Unless you are collecting, I would not bother.

It is awkward with side magazine. Zero aftermarket. Probably expensive. Ugly. Even new gray finish.

If you absolutely want to have euro exotic 223 bolt, I would look at

A trappers dream. Slung over his shoulder for fur bearers and a 12 gauge pump safely stowed on his snow machine for cold overnite trips.

I need another rifle like another hole in my head but this one caught my eye. In 300 Blackout it would be very sweet.

Right? I have plans for other guns but sporteque has them for ~1300 bucks. Tempting to say the least

What an ugly, perverted excuse for a rifle….take my money!!

Here’s hoping they went with a fast twist in the 223

Pretty neat; now make it single shot with sights in 224 Valkyrie.
