Post by: Special T on January 25, 2015, 02:31:23 PM: I have always been drawn to guns with innovative designs. I LOVE Kel-Tec weapons for that reason... I think thier Bullpup shotgun KSG and thier 308 bullpup battle rifles are cool as hell... unfortunate they are really $ and dont get very good reviews. I was interested in this rifle/action because it seems to take th features that many people rave about and combines them together... Since Im not purest gear nut i always wondered why no one had tried up to this point.

There are lots of other great gun makers/customize-ors that do great things but this outfitt just seemed innovative... and yes they arent cheep.

Post by: yorketransport on January 25, 2015, 08:11:33 PM: I like it. It's a similar design concept as the Shilen action; Rem 700 foot print and Savage barrel threads. The price really doesn't seem that far off for a custom action. I plan to look into them a little more.
