Putting the 'straight-pull' issue aside...the wooden furniture looks good on the rifle tongueout

I have an Ishapore 2A1 that looks just like this, it is chambered in 7,62x51 with a 16" barrel and L1A1 flash hider on the end, complete with a long eye relief red dot sight and the obligatory 12 round magazine.Blackknight1974 wrote:Looks as nice as:

They are not "neutered" semi autos.dromia wrote:I would give an AR/M16 or an AK space in a heart beat wood or plastic if they were in their original configuration as they are indeed classic rifles that have proven the designs in anger.
However neutered into single shot straight pulls they hold no interest for me.
If I want to shoot a straight pull then my Rosses do me just fine.
They are built as straight pulls from scratch.
They just use many of the proven features used in the AR platform.

Fantastic rifles, accurate and excellent design. Sadly betrayed by petty politics and being championed by a truly detestable person (and son).dromia wrote:
